Performance Technologies’ ComLink™ Serial Driver provides users of our intelligent, high-speed synchronous/serial communications adapters an easy way to run a variety of SunSoft™ communications protocols.
ComLink is designed to provide a transparent link between the SunSoft protocols and our communications adapters. ComLink is capable of sustaining high-speed data rates for the variety of protocols that are used in telecommunications and data communications applications.
ComLink can also be used as a standard API and Solaris™ driver for non-SunSoft applications.
Users of Sun’s suite of communication protocols, such as X.25, Frame Relay, PPP, Internetwork Router (IR), etc., can quickly and easily integrate our communications adapters for PCI, CompactPCI®, or PMC-based systems with the desired SunSoft protocol.
High-Performance Hardware
Performance Technologies’ communications adapters provide users with an intelligent four- or eight-port, high-speed synchronous/serial communications interface. These modules are proven high-speed, programmable, sync/serial controllers that support the variety of protocols that are used in sync/serial data communication applications. ComLink supports all PCI-based platforms that run Solaris 2.X and Solaris X.86, as well as the PCI, PMC, and CompactPCI form factors.
Operating under typical protocol overheads, these adapters achieve a sustained throughput of over 2 Mb/s full-duplex on each of their channels simultaneously. The adapters support a wide array of communication interfaces, including RS-232C, RS-422/449 and V.35.
Supported Hardware Adapters
The following intelligent synchronous WAN communications adapters provide four high performance sync/serial channels for WAN connectivity.
