1.1 Overview
The Netra CP3260 blade server (
FIGURE 1-1
and
FIGURE 1-2
) is a high-performance
single-board computer based on one UltraSPARC
®
T2 multicore processor and
designed for high availability in a switched network computing environment. This
blade server is compliant with Advanced Telecommunications Computing
Architecture (AdvancedTCA
®
, ATCA
®
) specifications (PICMG
®
3.0 and PICMG 3.1).
The PICMG (PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group) standards committee
has developed the new ATCA (or PICMG 3.x) standard to address the issues posed
by previous standards based on cPCI and cPSB (PICMG 2.x). The PICMG 3.x
specification brought the following changes to the existing PICMG 2.x family of
products:
■
Larger board space (8U high compared to 6U for cPCI), which allows more
features and processing power
■
On-board power supplies deriving local power from redundant
−
48V power from
the midplane (rather than separate power supplies)
■
6-HP slot width, allowing greater component height
■
Advanced Mezzanine card (AMC) support and options
