iQ are developing boards with C101 DSlink adapters on which do 100MBits/s each.
These boards are now working. I think they have HTRAM slots (the new T9
family TRAM slot). I'm not allowed to say what their names are because
they are different to the names used outside the company. I dont know
whether the PC bus is able to keep up with boards or whether there are
local bus versions.
Ask the sales-offices for details - finger sales-offices@inmos.co.uk
