Still mostly overview, but some info is here: http://www.intel.com/technology/io/thunderbolt/325136-001US_secured.pdf http://www.intel.com/technology/io/thunderbolt/index.htm Looking around at the info on the web, it seems some data is still inconsistent. It appears that support for optics was announced, and then delayed according to EETimes. http://www.eetimes.com/electronics-news/4213501/Ten-things-to-know-about-Thunderbolt It appears they are keeping some details under wraps for some reason. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
