Wake on LAN
Wake on LAN, a hardware feature that enables the remote power on of
computers through special network packets, is enabled in core PCI/PCI-X slots one and two.
Ropes
Ropes is an HP-proprietary, custom bus interface. It clocks data packets across
long-length nets using source synchronous clocking schemes. There are eighteen signals bundled
per Ropes group, of which there are a total of 16 in the rx3600. Each group is capable of 0.5GB/s
peak bandwidth.
