AdvancedMC Module Incorporates Intel Processor

The IPnexus MicroTCA systems now support an AdvancedMC option featuring the Intel EP80579 system-on-a-chip integrated processor. The new AMC123, an x86 Intel-based module, combines high-performance compute capabilities with low power consumption, making it an exceptional compute device for cluster computing; edge, wireless, or aerospace/defense communications; and control applications. The design is cost-optimized, significantly lowering total cost-of-ownership compared to other processing options, without compromising on performance. Using the IPnexus MicroTCA systems powered by the AMC123, designers have virtually endless options for systems that are operational right out-of-the-box. Applications include LTE, WiMAX, media and signaling gateways, military communication systems, and ground control systems. The 1U application-ready systems come standard with an integrated processing module (such as the Intel EP80579 or Intel Core 2 Duo processors), NexusWare, the company’s Registered 4.0 Carrier Grade Linux, NexusWare Studio, a complete software development environment, and NexusWare Portal, a remote systems management tool.
