Artesyn Embedded Technologies has published a new white paper, ATCA for Military, Aerospace and Other High Performance Embedded Computing Users, that addresses the forces driving the requirements of high performance embedded computing (HPEC) for military and aerospace applications, including the modular open system approach (MOSA), commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS), and reduced size, weight, power and cost (SWaP-C) as it applies to ATCA.
Artesyn Centellis® ATCA® Systems for Military Deployment
AdvancedTCA is an open standard bladed architecture that supports leading-edge packet and data processors while providing a degree of ruggedness in a compact and power-efficient bladed architecture.
ATCA is already engaged in various military & aerospace applications including shipboard communications and data center consolidation, naval tactical combat systems refresh, airborne reconnaissance, theater command centers, mobile TOCs, ground and airborne battle management systems, net-centric converged solutions for voice, video, and data, and C4ISR. All these programs require dense computing processor blades communicating over a 10G/40G integrated network.
Artesyn has the largest installed base of ATCA systems and blades and a long history of providing computing solutions to prime contractors and system integrators. Our ATCA systems in shock-isolated racks have operated flawlessly under afloat shock testing (Class A barge testing) and hour-long vibration testing with shock events increasing in intensity to the maximum -15G.
In addition to integrated, application-ready systems, Artesyn offers a rich selection of payload blades featuring various processor architectures to suit the dense computing and integrated network needs of military and aerospace applications. Artesyn closely follows the Intel® Embedded Roadmap for ATCA server blades, offering an optimized balance of performance, memory, I/O, and interfaces. We also offer a broad portfolio of packet processing blades, based on Cavium OCTEON or Intel Xeon processors, and a range of DSP-based ATCA blades that offer a very high density of IP voice and video transcoding.
