Intel's Communication Streaming Architecture (CSA) was a mechanism used in the

bus, which was the common practice until that point.

The technology was only used in Intel chipsets released in 2003, and was largely seen as a stop-gap measure to allow

mobile platform). To Intel's credit though, CSA-connected Ethernet chips did show consistently higher transfer rates than comparable PCI cards.

The following year, PCI Express replaced CSA as the method of connecting network chips in Intel's chipsets, and the technology was subsequently discontinued.
