Performance and Capacity Specifications 11-21
I/O Performance and
Capacity Specifications Every I/O device presents a load on the 1757-PLX52 system performance by
utilizing I/O network bandwidth and 1757-PLX52 memory and CPU
resources.
Many of these constraints are measured in I/O Units, which is a generic
loading definition used to normalize the load among the many different I/O
devices and families supported.
Refer to Table 11.R I/O Unit Load Constraints on page 11-21 for the I/O
unit load assigned to various devices and modules. By following these
configuration constraints, you can prevent the 1757-PLX52 from being
overloaded and increase the ability for the 1757-PLX52 to operate correctly..
