control memory in its “split” configuration. Again, control memory is mirrored. This path
topology is used to facilitate this mirrored architecture.
Either way the bandwidth is calculated in the CM-HSM, the bandwidth is 3.2GB/sec
total when all of the processor modules are installed. 4 bits clocked at 100MHz equals
50MB/sec per path multiplied by 64 ports is 3.2GB/sec bandwidth. Or, the full 8-bit path
clocked at 100MHz multiplied by the combined 32 ports of the control memory “pair”
equals 3.2GB/sec total.

redundant control
memory handles the
exchange of control
information between
processors and cache
memory about the
status, location, and
configuration of data.
