ATCA Line Adds 5-Slot Backplane

Extending the company’s line of AdvancedTCA products, a new integrated system with a 5-slot full mesh backplane, including two hub slots, has been developed for deployment in NEBS applications such as DSLAMs or other switching applications. Featuring a powerful cooling scheme with a fan controller to support up to 200W per slot, and optional dual redundant hot swap shelf managers, the full range of AdvancedTCA capabilities makes the new chassis useful for system integrators as well as board and software developers. Other features include dual 48V inputs on the rear, easy access to the top board for debug, shielding, and 19" rack-mounting. Pricing starts at less than $2,500.
