Fixed and mobile broadband networks are straining from the rapid explosion of bandwidth-intensive applications compounded by the rapid ramp up of data-driven devices such as smart phones and 3G wireless data cards. With the introduction of LTE the strain is only destined to get worse and pre-integrated 40G ATCA platform solutions are needed to cope with this next phase of expansion.

The 40G ATCA platform is pre-integrated to help network equipment providers deliver the highest performance solutions for tomorrow’s network infrastructure needs -- including LTE (SGW, PDN GW), 3G (xGSN, Internet Offload) and DPI (Policy Enforcement, Security, Service Gateways).

By combining the latest multi-core packet processors, new 40G Ethernet switch devices, high capacity uplinks such as 40GbE and 100GbE and the new PICMG3.1 option 9 extension for 40G backplanes (aka 10G Kr), the 40G ATCA platform can dramatically lower cost/bit and increase system density.

Central to the 40G pre-integrated 40G ATCA platform is the hub switch which delivers unprecedented levels of uplink capacity and 40G connectivity to each slot in the ATCA platform. Complementing this raw throughput are advanced capabilities to manage congestion, thereby increasing link utilization levels before packet loss occurs, and new line rate packet processing capabilities to parse packets, manipulate MPLS headers and perform user-based load balancing which is particularly important for DPI applications.

Higher processing performance is delivered with packet processing blades. The ATCA-PP81 combines two NetLogic XLP832 multi-core MIPS processors. ATCA-PP81 provides greater than 3X performance as compared to the ATCA-PP50, which is one of the highest performance blades for applications such DPI traffic shaping and policy enforcement. The ATCA-PP81 continues the 40G-enabled backplane connectivity and high bandwidth external I/O to ensure systems scale from the 100Gbps level today to beyond 300Gbps in the near future.
