Magma ExpressBox 16 Smart
ExpressBox 16 Smart expands one host PCIe® slot to sixteen slots by extending PCI Express signals over a high-bandwidth x8 or x16 connection to an external Magma enclosure. When combined with Magma's software utility, Express I/O Manager, technology managers have the flexibility to partition slots inside the expansion chassis to up to four separate servers. Express I/O Manager also provides access to monitor the most critical components like power temperature, fans and PCI Express links through an Ethernet connection. The software tool can be integrated with any SNMP agent in the IT network.
Smart, Manageable, Multi-Host Expansion
PCI Express connectivity has matured well beyond the early days of PCI into a fully capable "outside the box" high-speed interconnect for the most demanding mission critical applications in HPC and IT infrastructures. As cloud computing and remote services become standard, offering a flexible, manageable, and cost effective expansion solution is demanded for high-speed Ethernet, HBAs, Fibre Channel SAN controllers, GPUs, video accelerators, and more.
Expansion Partitioning Between Multiple Servers
A unique feature of the ExpressBox 16 Smart allows the PCIe expansion slots to be partitioned between 4 different servers. Using the Express I/O Manager, 3 different partitioning configurations can be selected. In the default configuration, all 16 expansion slots are accessed by one host computer. Configurations 2 and 3 provide up to 3 expansion cards per server at x16 speeds, and up to seven expansion cards for a fourth server at x8 speeds. A separate host adapter is required for each server. ExpressBox 16 Smart consists of a pair of interface cards (x8 or x16), an iPass cable and a 4U rack-mount expansion chassis. The Magma expansion chassis is automatically configured by the System BIOS, with the expansion slots appearing transparently on the host computer.Benefits:
- Add (16) slots through a single host slot
- x8 or x16 interconnect options - speeds up to 80Gbps
- Partition expansion slots among four individual servers
- Offers flexibility in configuration and allocation of scarce or expensive I/O resources

- Low profile PCIe host card can be installed in any server
- LEDs on backplane indicate active link, speed (Gen 1 or Gen 2), partial or complete lane training
- Supports peer-to-peer transfers between cards in the expansion chassis to provide full-bandwidth potential among I/O cards
- Four hot-swappable cooling fans
- Multiple power supply options with auxiliary power connectors to support high-wattage cards
- 4U rack-mount enclosure with superior EMI control, vibration, shock and moisture resistance

Magma 3 Slot PCI Expansion
Protect your investment and keep your PCI cards in commission with our 3 slot PCI expansion chassis. Expand the life of your PCI cards by keeping them protected and running in optimal conditions.
Need to upgrade your server or desktop computer? Don't want to lose your investment in your specialized PCI cards that won't fit in your new computer? You can install practically any PCI card into the Magma PCI Expansion System and connect it through a PCI Express slot on your computer.
Prolong Your Investment
Magma's 3 Slot PCI Expansion System provides a simple, cost-effective solution for expanding the capability of practically any computer, especially as PCI Express becomes the industry standard, the number of available PCI slots has been reduced or completely eliminated. Many companies have invested a lot time, energy and money in solutions built around conventional PCI hardware. The Magma 3 Slot PCI Expansion System provides a safe "migration path" to PCI Express while protecting your investment in PCI cards.
Save Time, Money and Trouble
The expansion chassis consists of a host interface card, a cable and a chassis. The expansion chassis is automatically configured by the System BIOS making all of the slots appear transparent within the host computer.
Cost-Effective Migration and Increased I/O Capacity
Magma expansion solutions provide a cost-effective migration path to new computers while maintaining a consistent PCI configuration. In addition, Magma products significantly increase (I/O) capacity and scalability. Multiple expansion systems can be combined to provide an almost unlimited number of PCI slots* to a single computer. This type of scalability is especially useful in industries such as Telecom, Data Acquisition, Video Monitoring, Server Storage and Manufacturing Test Fixtures.
Benefits:
- Increase the number of PCI slots without replacing your computer
- Attach full-height PCI cards to computers with low-profile slots or PCI Express slots
- The only solution for adding multiple PCI cards to mobile computers
- Multiple expansion systems can be connected to a single computer
- Keep your PCI configuration consistent making computer upgrades easy
- Proven method to increase PCI capability without losing performance
Features:
- Connects to desktop and laptop computers
- 3 slot PCI 64-bit Backplane
- All slots support full-length or shorter universal and legacy 5 volt only PCI cards (optional 3.3V only available)
- Quiet cooling for hot PCI cards
- All Slots support full length (12.283") or shorter PCI cards
- Versatile black enclosure can be rack-mounted or stacked on a tabletop under your computer or monitor
- Non-enclosed board sets are available for OEMs and System Integrators to utilize their own enclosure
- Only 2U when rack-mounted and brackets are included
