HyperTransport™ Technology I/O Link
A High-Bandwidth I/O Architecture


HyperTransport™ technology was developed at AMD with the help of industry partners to provide a high-speed, high-performance, point-to-point link for interconnecting integrated circuits on a board. With a top signaling rate of 1.6 GHz on each wire pair, a Hyper Transport technology link can support a peak aggregate bandwidth of 12.8 Gbytes/s.

The HyperTransport I/O link is a complementary technology for InfiniBand and 1Gb/10Gb Ethernet solutions. Both InfiniBand and high-speed Ethernet interfaces are high-performance networking protocol and box-to-box solutions, while HyperTransport is intended to support "in-the-box" connectivity.
