AdvancedTCA^® (ATCA) is a well-established and successful technology in the telecom network central office. The tangible business benefits realized by network equipment providers and operators are driving enhancements to the technology to address even more applications, moving into the network data center. Effective competition from ATCA with commercial or enterprise servers goes beyond the technology with the reuse of common platform processes and supply chain aspects. This trend is also being seen in communications networks outside the traditional telecom market with, for example, the military moving to packet-based protocols as the foundation for intelligent warfare programs.

This white paper gives an overview of some successful deployments in the ATCA market today and outlines the factors driving its adoption in markets outside the telecom central office.
