Tigercat System Board Manual
Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Tigercat system board. The
Tigercat is an advanced single processor solution for the
industrys most demanding workstation and server appli-
cations.
Based on the Intel 440LX PCIset, the Tigercat supports
the latest advanced processor architecture, the Pentium
II (processor-on-a-cartridge), which provides the speed
and performance necessary to address the most intensive
computational applications. Hardware management sup-
port, Ultra DMA/33 IDE hard drive protocol (up to
33MBytes/sec transfer rate), and SDRAM memory sup-
port make this board powerful and feature rich.
In addition, the Tigercat comes with an AGP (Acceler-
ated Graphics Port) bus slot, a faster bus than the current
33MHz PCI bus. The AGP bus provides a
direct
connec-
tion between the graphics subsystem and system memory.
The Wake-on-LAN and Resume-on-Modem Ring fea-
tures offer you a way to access a local-area or wide-area
network or modem to turn on desktop PCs remotely. The
wake-up control located on the Tigercat system board
collects input from a Wake-on-LAN enabled adapter
and the PC's power switch. It then routes its output to the
power-supply activation circuitry. You can power up your
PC or multiple PCs from a remote location and manage
networks more efficiently.
Micronics builds all products to exacting standards, using
the highest quality components available. We are proud
to provide this system board and believe you will be
pleased with your purchase.
