Small-form-factor AdvancedTCA platform handles two blades

Unit has front-to-rear cooling, fully integrated shelf management, and built-in Gigabit Ethernet switches

The Centellis 2000 AdvancedTCA platform provides all the benefits of larger communications servers, but in a compact, two-slot version. The low-cost unit features a front-to-rear cooling architecture and is designed to meet Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) requirements. It also features a fabric channel that connects the two blades directly and Gigabit Ethernet switches for nonblocking base channel switching.

The 3U 19-in. chassis has two horizontal blade slots and scalable reliability for central office and data center environments and integrated shelf management for inventory data, remote upgrade, electronic keying, thermal management, and network-based remote access. Ac- and dc-powered units are available.

The device’s electronic modules, blades, and cards are field replaceable and hot swappable. The platform minimizes both planned and unplanned downtime and provides continuous service during fault recovery in addition to redundancy of all active system components.
