Intel Scalable Switch FPGA IP for PCI Express is a configurable switch that provides connectivity for up to 32 downstream ports or embedded endpoints. It supports Hot Plug capability for downstream ports, allowing for flexible configurations. The IP implements upstream and downstream port configuration spaces and routes packets between ports. Use cases include connecting multiple devices like FPGAs, ASICs, or microcontrollers to a single PCIe root port, enabling high-speed data transfer and communication.

1. Introduction
The Scalable Switch Intel FPGA IP for PCI Express is a fully configurable switch that
implements one fully configurable upstream port and connectivity for up to 32 discrete
(i.e., external) downstream ports or embedded (i.e., internal) endpoints. This IP
supports Hot Plug capability for the downstream ports. You can use the Scalable
Switch Intel FPGA IP along with the Intel P-Tile Avalon Streaming IP for PCI Express in
TLP Bypass mode to configure the discrete downstream ports or use the Scalable
Switch Intel FPGA IP to configure the embedded endpoints allowing the use of fewer
PCIe physical links. The Scalable Switch Intel FPGA IP implements the upstream and
downstream port configuration spaces and associated logic to route packets between
the different ports.
The following figure shows the Scalable Switch Intel FPGA IP with discrete EPs. Note
that the Switch can also support embedded EPs.
