The PICMG 2.16-compliant cPCI-6240 is based on the Intel IXP2400 network processor and supports a processor PMC site for additional control plane processing, a PCI Telecom Mezzanine/Carrier Card site for quad OC-3 or OC-12 interfaces, and up to four additional gigabit Ethernet channels.
"The cPCI-6240 combines Intel's IXP2400 network processor, quad MAC and mapper framer silicon onto a highly integrated CompactPCI board.
With this higher level of integration, users can reduce the board count and cost of future telecommunication platforms", said Jeff Munch, Chief Technology Officer of Adlink and also Chairman of PICMG 3.0.
The IXP2400 supports one 600MHz XScale control plane processor and eight 600MHz micro-engine processors to provide users with flexible high-performance programming at up to OC-12 line speeds.
The Intel IXP2400 network processor also supports up to 512Mbyte DDR SDRAM and 4Mbyte QDR SRAM with ECC for intense applications such as 3G radio network controllers, media gateways and VPNs.
"The IXP2400 enables flexible delivery of speedy networking services at line rate to support a broad range of access and edge applications", said Jim Finnegan, General Manager, Intel Network Processor Division.
"We believe the introduction of Adlink's cPCI-6240 will help customers implement complete next generation platform solutions for 3G wireless infrastructure and high performance network security devices".
