SCRAMNet Network

Our SCRAMNet Network (Shared Common RAM Network) is specifically designed to solve the communication needs of distributed real-time computing applications. Based on the innovative "replicated shared-memory" concept, SCRAMNet places up to 8 Mbytes of identical computer-addressable memory into each network computer node. The additional memory is known as replicated shared-memory, because it contains all data to be shared among the interconnected computers.

With SCRAMNet, memory-writes to the replicated shared-memory at one computer are instantly sent to all other replicated shared-memories on the network at 150 Mbits/sec via high-speed fiber optic or coaxial cable. Bus contentions, time-consuming protocols, and non-deterministic message crashes are eliminated. SCRAMNet enables the distributed computer system to appear as one large, powerful "virtual" multi-processor to real-time applications. The results are inter-processor communications that occur at memory speeds…on time…every time!

Evidenced in thousands of applications around the world, the SCRAMNet
Network offers a host of key real-time networking features; true real-time speed that delivers inter-processor communication well within the 5 to 50 microsecond requirement, optimized ring configuration that performs automatic, immediate replicated shared-memory data communication with zero software overhead, deterministic performance, memory mapped interrupts and external triggers, programmable data filtering, selectable byte swapping, and flexible design that interconnects up to 256 nodes and successfully connects computer systems by many different suppliers.
