Integrated platform for IP based communications

Network communications specialist, Performance Technologies has added the AMP5071 to its Ipnexus MicroTCA systems.

Designed for system engineers developing IP based communication products, the AMP5071 is said to provide a range of options to meet design criteria for telecom, networking, as well as aerospace and defence communication systems. According to Performance Technologies, the AMP5071 enables embedded engineers to begin their new product development faster and is suitable for applications such as WiMAX gateways, lte infrastructure equipment, radar gateways and transportation network equipment. Designers can select an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, or a Freescale MPC8641D dual-core 1GHz PowerPC processor. Additional AMC modules for I/O, storage, and compute functions can be configured and integrated into the system in order to meet a wide range of IP based communications design criteria.
