Open Modular Solutions
Versatile Base and Fabric AdvancedTCA 10 GbE Hub
The Kontron AT8904 10GB hub is the ideal platform for open modular-based
broadband media servers used to support Video on Demand (VoD) from a
library of movies, delivered over DSL or CableTV networks, as well as VoD short
videos from online service platforms, such as YouTube for example, delivered
to mobile phones and wireless clients.
For design engineers of media server applications, the Kontron AT8904 offers
exceptional flexibility with two (2) AdvancedMC slots to host any of the following: processor AdvancedMC modules as main controllers; storage AdvancedMC modules as mass storage devices for Processor AMCs; and dual 10GbE
uplink AMCs to interlink the Fabric. Concerning the 10GbE uplinks, Kontron
offers the AT8904 hub with the AM4310 Mid-Size Interlink AMC module for a
redundant Interlink of multiple ATCA chassis. The AM4310 provides 2 x 10GbE
uplinks on the front panel via optical XFP connectors which are routed to the
XAUI ports (ports 4-7 and 8-11) on the AMC connectors.
The Kontron AT8904 is designed with built-in Layer 3 routing support and
non-blocking Layer 2 switching with VLANs. Its design is based on its existing
line of AdvancedTCA hub boards which, for GbE to 10 GbE migration purposes,
provides tremendous economies of scale and faster deployments for designers
who have aleady designed applications with the Kontron AT8901 and AT8902
hubs. The Kontron AT8904 supports full IPv6 routing and a line rate switching
capacity of 200-Gbps which makes it the ideal hub for high traffic broadband
media server network elements.
If it´s Embedded, it´s Kontron.
