Using The IDT PCI Express Standard System-Interconnect Solution To Deliver Predictable, Secure, High-RAS Communications In Bladed Systems
Bladed system architectures enable equipment providers to produce high-density, modular equipment that can be easily scaled or reconfigured to match user needs. This high level of scalability is achieved by disaggregating computing and scarce system I/O resources. However, it poses a significant challenge: the system needs an equally scalable interconnect architecture that enables any and all root complexes to communicate both with each other and with any and all endpoints.

PCIe Outside the Box
Now that PCI Express has achieved nearly 100% acceptance in desktop and laptop PCs, designers are looking to leverage the technology into other form factors and applications. Over 60 form factors have now been defined using PCIe as the backplane bus architecture. PCIe also has unique features that facilitate its usage as a box-to-box interconnect. Earlier this year, the PCI-SIG approved the specification for PCIe over cable implementations. With the standard in place, creative engineers are looking to capitalize on a new capability.

Building Next-Generation Telecom Equipment Based on the AMD64 Processor Family
The ATCA specification of chassis and boards was developed to facilitate the faster introduction of next-generation telecom products which need to have higher performance, more functionality and must be less costly to build, implement and manage. With its open and scalable architecture and rich set of unique features, the AMD Opteron processor is an ideal solution for next generation high performance products.
