What I need to connect to Parallella boards

[bonkie]

Hi everybody, I have an nooby question to ask and that is what I need to connect two 16-core Parallella boards together. I would like to be prepared for when my boards actually arrive and can not seem to find an answer to my question. Any help would be nice and thanks

A network switch (ideally Gigabit Ethernet) and cables is likely all you will need. You can connect boards together via the Epiphany Link (eLink) connectors on the underside of the board, but if you've not identified this as a requirement it's probably not something you will need right now.

Adapteva are getting manufacturing set up for eLink cables and once this is done they will appear in the shop.

Cheers,

Andrew
