The OpenBoot PROM maps several types of connecting devices inside the I/O boats
in the External I/O Expansion Unit. These connecting devices generally have
multiple I/O ports which appear in the OpenBoot PROM report as pci@0, pci@1,
pci@0,1, and so forth. These connecting devices are switching circuits which switch
between multiple inputs, and bridge circuits, which connect PCI-X buses to PCI
Express buses.
