two FBDIMM channels. These three major I/O interfaces are
serializer/deserializer (SerDes) based and provide a total pin
bandwidth in excess of 1 Tb/s. All the SerDes are on chip.
The high levels of system integration truly makes Niagara2 a
“server-on-a-chip”, thus reducing system component count,
complexity and power, and hence improving system reliability.
