Everywhere where high availability and high data transfers are in demand, AdvancedTCA has established itself as a standard. Schroff has expanded its product range in the area of AdvancedTCA with a focus on development environments and enterprise solutions.
The 2 Slot/2 U, 2 Slot/3 U and 5 Slot/5 U AdvancedTCA systems from Schroff
In the new, compact 2 slot to 5 slot AdvancedTCA systems (PICMG 3.0 Rev. 2.0) the AdvancedTCA boards are installed horizontally. Hot-swap capable fan units with a cooling performance of 200 W per front board and 15 W for the rear I/O area provide the required cooling. An independent fan controller makes operation of the systems possible without shelf management.
Four standard systems are available:
* The 2 U entry module is arranged with a 2 slot backplane with node-node configuration. All 15 Fabric Channels are connected directly. Two boards can be assembled at the front and two further boards at the rear (rear I/O). The power supply with telecom voltage (-48/-60 V d.c.) is carried out with two power entry modules.
* The 3 U system also has a 2 slot backplane; here, however, it is arranged as node-hub configuration. The assembly of two horizontal AdvancedTCA boards (8 U/6 HP) is possible at the front and rear. Additionally slots for a Shelf Manager with bussed IPMI (intelligent platform management interface) as well as a Shelf Alarm Panel (SAP) are available.
* The two 5 U systems are equipped with a Triple Replicated Mesh backplane with slots for five horizontally assembled boards at the front and rear. Here, too, a Shelf Manager with bussed IPMI and a Shelf Alarm Panel (SAP) can be integrated. The 5 U model is available as AC version for 100 to 240 V or as DC version for telecom voltages (-48/-60 V d.c.).
The AdvancedTCA systems are EMC shielded and configured for 19" assembly. With exception of the 2 U version all AdvancedTCA systems, also the well-known 14 and 16 slot systems, can be operated with the same Shelf Manager with bussed IPMI (intelligent platform management interface).
