Reflective Memory is a halo-based, ultra-fast shared memory networking solution.

It allows distributed networks to share real-time data at a defined rate, independent of bus architecture and operating system.

GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms has over 15 years of experience in this area and is a pioneer in this technology.

Our 5565 Reflective Memory family further solidifies our market leadership.

How did we do it? Our approach is simple. Our Reflective Memory technology is centred on an innovative and efficiently designed hardware platform.

The platform is easy to use, with greater distance between nodes and higher noise immunity.

Distance between nodes, high noise immunity, optional node bypass and no software overhead.

Only the on-board memory needs to be read and written, the Reflective Memory node controller does the rest.

The 5565 Reflective Memory family is available in multiple form factors including PCI Express (PCIE-5565RC),

PMC (PMC-5565PIORC and PMC-5565), PCI (PCI-5565PIORC and PCI-5565) and VME (VME-5565).

This family of products allows computers, workstations, PLCs and other embedded controllers to share data in real time.

Data transfers between nodes are software transparent, so no processor overhead is required.

Data written to reflective memory is broadcast to all nodes on the network without further involvement of the sending or receiving node.

GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms' Reflected Memory products are proven and highly reliable.

They are used around the world in applications such as data acquisition, simulation and training, industrial automation, and electronic communications.

Most importantly, GE has the experience, stability, innovation and commitment to provide you with global support and service.
