Introduction
Myricom currently produces two series of Myrinet/PCI host interfaces: the 64B series with
133MHz RISC and memory, and the 64C series with 200MHz RISC and memory. The product
codes follow this scheme:
Physical Port Form factor Interface type Memory
M3F- (Myrinet-Fiber) PCI 64 -2
M3S- (Myrinet-Serial) PMC 64A -4
M2M- or M3M- (Myrinet-SAN) 64B -8
M2L- (Myrinet-LAN) 64C
such that, for example, an M3F-PCI64C-2 interface has a Myrinet-Fiber port, has the “PCI Short
Card” form factor, is of the 64C type (Myricom LANai 9 processor operating at 200MHz), and
has 2MB of local memory. Not all combinations are produced. The interfaces that are in current
production are listed at:

This listing also includes prices and links to the detailed product specifications.
PCI Short Cards
The PCI short cards, as pictured below, are available with Myrinet ports for Myrinet-Fiber
(industry-standard LC-connectorized 50/125 multimode fiber cables), Myrinet-Serial (industry-
standard HSSDC copper cable), Myrinet-SAN (special “microstrip” multiconductor ribbon
cable) connections, or legacy Myrinet-LAN (special DB-37-connectorized multiconductor
shielded cables).
