Building High-Bandwidth Capacity Through 40G-Ready ATCA Capability

Consumer demand for bandwidth continues to grow unabated, and the resulting growth in IP traffic is creating extraordinary demands on the communications infrastructure. As a well established technology for communications infrastructure implementations, the open standard bladed AdvancedTCA® (ATCA®) architecture must evolve too, increasing the data processing performance per blade and the bandwidth of the blade’s data path into the system backbone. The technology for creating blades and systems that interact at 40Gbps instead of 10Gbps is increasingly available and there are steps that developers can take now to pave the way for quick and painless system upgrades once that technology is more widely deployed.

Steps to 40G ATCA Migration

3 Elements of a 40G ATCA Platform

  1. An enclosure with a backplane capable of supporting 10G-KR signals, and sufficient airflow for higher power boards.
  2. A 40Gbps hub switch, capable of terminating 40G links to all the node slots.
  3. Packet processing and other payload blades capable of handling that traffic.

3 Steps to Making the Best Use of 40G ATCA Technology

  1. Lay the foundation with a 40G-ready enclosure.
  2. Upgrade the switching infrastructure.
  3. Expand the platform with 40G ATCA payload options as required.
