FlexSwitch cPCI-24+2R
- CompactPCI Fully Managed Gigabit Ethernet Switch
- Flexibility and Performance
FlexSwitch cPCI-24+2R provides the ideal blade switching solution for telecom equipment manufacturers seeking superior flexibility and performance in a CompactPCI (cPCI) form factor.
The 24+2R is a 26-port, non-blocking, fully-managed Ethernet switch with 24 10/100 autosensing Fast Ethernet ports which can be accessed via the midplane for intra-chassis switching (PICMG 2.16 compliant) or via the rear transition module for external switching. The two Gigabit Ethernet ports can be accessed through the rear transition module.
The 24+2R provides full wire-speed Layer 2 switching support for up to 16K MAC addresses, 256 IEEE 802.1Q Virtual LANs, IP multicasting, full- and half-duplex flow control, and IEEE 802.1p/Q Quality of Service.
The 24+2R enables high-speed communications between elements in Continuous Computing's cPCI systems without external hubs that often block airflow. Its vertical, low-power design increases system density, lowers cost, and provides seamless system integration. The blade can operate in a cPCI slot or in an isolated backplane and supports TCP/IP and serial management interfaces.
Engineered for carrier-class performance and designed as a modular switching blade for telecom deployment, the 24+2R is built on industry standards to ensure easy integration and management.
Coupled with Continuous Computing's complete family of cPCI solutions and Trillium protocol software, the 24+2R provides the fastest path from application development to deployment revenue.
