Comtech AHA's AHA362-PCIX is the only GZIP
compression/decompression solution available that offers the high
speed performance required by networking and storage systems today.
Software compression solutions require dedicated processor resources
and do not achieve the necessary throughput required for many systems.4/2. Located in Moscow, Idaho,
Comtech AHA has been setting the standard in Forward Error Correction
and Lossless Data Compression technology for more than a decade and
offers a variety of standard and custom IC solutions for the data

Unlike other COM architectures, XTX retains support for legacy peripherals
such as serial ports, parallel port, floppy drive, Parallel ATA (IDE ) and PS/2
keyboard and mouse.


BIOS is an acronym for: Basic Input/Output System, of personal computers (PC).

The system as a whole is called 'the BIOS'.

The PC BIOS was invented by the late programmer, and PC operating system (CP/M) pioneer Gary Kildall.

standards use completely different connectors, signals, locations , and board

necessitates a substantial baseboard re-design to access new processors and

"We are excited to introduce the AHA362-PCIX GZIP compression
board," said Bill Thomson, president of Comtech AHA. Any forward-looking information in this press
release is qualified in its entirety by the risks and uncertainties
described in such Securities and Exchange Commission filings.com/html/XTX_FormFactor_830. Access to both the PCI
bus and the LPC bus at the XTX baseboard interface gives OEMs two options for
generating the ISA bus if needed for simple I/O expansion: Through a
PCI-to-ISA bridge, or through an LPC-to -ISA bridge placed on the baseboard.
