Abaco Systems / Radstone STARSW-41 StarSwitch StarFabric Switch/ Dual PMC Carrier Card Overview
Features:
- Dual StarFabric PMC Access
- StarFabric P0-Backplane Switch Functionality
- Dual VME Access Allowing PCI-X Enabled PMCs to Bridge to VME
- PMC Sites Have All 64 Pins of User I/O Mapped to P2 or P0 Connectors
StarFabric is currently the fastest datacomms technology available for use with the VME P0 connector standard. It has a signaling speed of 622 Mbits/s per signal pair, which equates to 2.5 Gbits/s per StarFabric port.
StarSwitch's four P0-StarFabric ports can be used as a pair of bundled links for small high performance systems, allowing a high sustained bandwidth to both PMC sites concurrently. Interrupts from the PMC sites are routed either via StarFabric or directly off-board for minimized latency using an interrupt mapper. StarSwitch's use of both switch and bridge functions allow traffic on any port to be routed to either PMC site, or switched (re-routed) off-board. Any number of StarSwitches can be used together with one or more StarFabric-enabled host to form large fabric networks.
StarSwitch additionally allows VME access to both PMC sites. The on-board bridges permit PCI-X-enabled PMCs to be used at 100 MHz and to isolate PMC traffic from each other. The combination of VME and StarFabric access to PMCs provides a means of separating low-latency control-plane data from bulk data transfers such as DMAs.
The Abaco Systems STARSW-41 StarSwitch StarFabric Switch/ Dual PMC Carrier Card may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

What Customers Are Saying

These people are amazing and absolutely *outstanding* at what they do. The customer service is terrific, every product is shipped to the exact specifications I ordered, and everyone has consistently bent over backwards to help me. They also carry a wide range of products and offer exceptional support. Very highly recommended!!!
- Neo Google
Contacted Artisan for hard to find that has been out of circulation for nearly a decade. Their rapid response and availability exceeded all other suppliers. They supplied the part overnight to an out of state facility which allowed us to repair our equipment successfully. Well packed electronics. Well stated and professional documentation. I work with a hundred different suppliers any day of the week in my profession. Artisan remains at the very top of the bookmark tab. Thanks so much.
- Lonnie G.
Don’t worry about damage to your items during shipping – the box ours came in could have taken a beating and would have still survived!
- Shelby G.
The customer service representative was great. She couldn’t answer my question but connected me to an engineer who made sure I was ordering the right part. Shipping was fast too.
- Darlene K. Google
Staff knows their stuff! Very knowledgeable and helpful. Very satisfied!

Artisan isn’t just a supplier with inventory. Their engineers helped diagnose a problem over the phone that would have taken us weeks to figure out!

Excellent customer service!

Artisan saved us headaches and money by helping us find a replacement Tektronix VXI module. Finding quality replacement parts is difficult and I'm glad they had what I needed.
