Diversified Technology, Inc. Introduces ATCA Node Featuring the Second-Generation AMD Opteron(TM) Processor


ATC6231 - New Dual-Core Processing Engine for DTI's Targa Line of AdvancedTCA Platforms

SAN DIEGO, March 1 / -- MVA Conference -- Diversified Technology, Inc. (DTI) announces the introduction of the ATC6231, a dual-core Second Generation AMD Opteron(TM) processor-based Node Board designed for the next generation of telecom applications. The board is a PICMG® 3.1 compliant processor blade that combines low price with high performance for wireless access/edge, telecom fiber transport, media gateways, soft switches, and Internet IP-based applications.

"The ATC6231 using the AMD Opteron, simply put, offers freedom to the ATCA node market: The architectural freedom to test your actual application on a truly different architecture, and unique differential freedom that allows your own hardware-based innovation through the use of FPGAs connected to the node application processor," stated Joe McDevitt, DTI's VP of Technical Marketing. "Finally, the ATC6231 offers power freedom so that you can decide how much power the AMC will use and recover all un-used AMC power in the form of application performance; un-used AMC power is not lost in a power budget done long ago when the ATCA node was first conceived."

"The Second-Generation AMD Opteron processor with Direct Connect Architecture and DDR2 memory is designed to provide industry-leading performance for the memory intensive Telecommunication market, which has benefited from the power of distributed computing. Direct Connect Architecture specifically helps eliminate the bottlenecks inherent in traditional front side bus architectures, offering high-throughput responsiveness and scalability," stated Peter Robinson, telecom segment manager, AMD. "Additionally, the HyperTransport(TM) technology advantages of the AMD Opteron processor provide much-needed hardware differentiation among network equipment providers in the COTS market. These technological and architectural advancements help enable Diversified Technology to provide the AdvancedTCA market with products of superior performance and functionality."
