ABSTRACT:
A peripheral component interconnect (PCI) extension/expansion system wherein the PCI Local Bus can be extended from a computer system's motherboard to another location. A PCI translation card and remote PCI board communicate via a transmission medium to relay the signals from the PCI local bus to a remote location. The signals are then provided to remote expansion slots, where additional PCI components may be operated. Further, additional PCI connectors are provided for more add-in boards.
