Abstract

See full text

A system for coupling sets of plurality of nodes that are memory coupled to pass write only data memory to memory via a data link that further includes an optical fiber controller coupled to each data link. Each controller is interconnected through fiber for high speed data transfers from one set of nodes to another. The controller is capable of connection implementing three and four cable interfaces. The data is transmitted through the fiber serially but the controller is adapted to receive parallel data and convert to serial form and vice versa.
