Diversified Technology, Inc. Provides New Low Profile, CompactPCI Solutions


DTI's two new additions to the PlexSys Family of CompactPCI Systems are ultra compact enclosures ideal for carriers and service providers deploying communication platforms in mobile and space restricted environments.

RIDGELAND, MS - March 28, 2005 - Diversified Technology, Inc. announced today the release of the PlexSys-1 and PlexSys-2 CompactPCI Systems. These general purpose Platforms are new additions to DTI's PlexSys family of PICMG 2.X-compliant building blocks and they provide telecom and Internet IP-based OEMs an open standards ecosystem for application solutions development. Both systems are powered by the CPB4612 processor blade, which utilizes the low power, high performance Intel Pentium M processor.

"These new low profile PlexSys systems give DTI products that will help make a push in the space-restricted market for CompactPCI," commented Donald Germany, DTI's Systems Engineering Manager. "The PlexSys-1 and PlexSys-2 give our customers platforms that deliver the performance they need, while also saving on the amount of space they have to take up. The CPB4612 processor blade, which powers the chassis, is a great CPU to handle today's intensive, data-flow applications."

The PlexSys-1 and PlexSys-2 are ideal solutions for systems integrators, value added resellers or network equipment providers in telecom or networking industries specializing in providing high-end VoIP, Fire Wall, QoS, VPN, and SS7 gateways because of its flexibility. These compact units meet fast time-to-market demands while also providing robust and reliable blade system platforms for Datacom and Telecom markets (for example Net Routers and the Net gateway markets).

About the PlexSys-1

Diversified Technology's PlexSys-1, 1U general purpose CompactPCI System Platform, part of DTI's PlexSys family of PICMG 2.0-compliant building blocks, provides telecom and Internet IP-based OEMs an open standards ecosystem for application solutions development.

The PlexSys-1 rugged, designed-for-NEBS enclosure features a 2-slot transversely mounted backplane with one system master and one node slot. Accepting 6U cards at the front and rear, the backplane provides one CompactPCI bus segment for high density computing. Rear Transition Module (RTM) support allows for pass through I/O to the rear of the chassis.

The Hybrid Serial-Parallel fan arrangement provides excellent cooling in the hard to cool 1U market. Five fans arranged in a front to side cooling scheme give the chassis 22 CFM of overall airflow. Enough airflow is produced to dissipate large amounts of heat generated by the latest generation of CompactPCI computer boards.

About the PlexSys-2

Diversified Technology's PlexSys-2, 2U general purpose CompactPCI System Platform, part of DTI's PlexSys family of PICMG 2.x-compliant building blocks, provides telecom and Internet IP-based OEMs an open standards ecosystem for application solutions development.

The PlexSys-2 rugged, designed-for-NEBS enclosure features a 4-slot transversely mounted backplane with one dedicated system master and three peripheral node slots. Accepting 6U cards at the front and rear, the backplane provides one CompactPCI bus Segment.

The hot-swappable, front loading, fan tray with three fans, provides efficient left-to-right cooling.
