Product:  SGI® Gigabyte System Network
Company:  Silicon Graphics, Inc. (SGI)
Type:  System
Description:  GSN is the highest bandwidth interconnect standard, providing full-duplex 6400Mb-per-second (800MB-per-second in each direction) error-free, flow-controlled data transmission. GSN is ideal wherever organizations require timely and efficient movement of large amounts of information, including scientific and technical computing, HDTV, data mining, transaction processing, video and film archiving, and storage management. It is the only standard networking technology capable of providing the bandwidth necessary for the film and video industry's migration to digital studios and HDTV. Customers with large data warehouses can use the technology for ultrahigh-performance file servers and backup servers capable of moving terabytes of data per hour. SGI has been the leading proponent of GSN technology and was the first system vendor to introduce GSN products. The SGI GSN adapter offers partial- and full-bandwidth implementations of this standard in single and dual XIO slot versions.
