For the most demanding, high density ATCA applications the ZX7100 brings new features to the PICMG 3.1 compatible market. With 72 Gigabit Ethernet ports and up to three 10Gigabit Ethernet ports, the ZX7100 can concentrate High Availability traffic for any packet-based application. Critical new features include:
• Multiple 10Gigabit Ethernet Ingress/Egress
• Full Seperation between ATCA Base and Data
• PICMG 3.1 Option 1, 2, and 3 support
• IPv6 Switching
With 48 Gigabit ports dedicate to the ATCA data fabric, the ZX7100 can accommodate an assortment of PICMG 3.1 Option 3 (4 Gigabit Ethernet links) and Option 2 (2 Gigabit Ethernet link) payload boards in a full 16-slot ATCA chassis.?Option 1 boards may also be used.?These links are in addition to the Gigabit Ethernet links supplied on the ATCA Base Interface.
Full Base and Fabric Seperation
The ZX7100 is actually two complete switching subsystems in one ATCA blade.?Each of the two non-blocking switch fabrics with their separate control processors ensure that no accidental or malicious software malfunction can cross over between the Control and Data planes, implementing true Telco-grade network security.
IPv6 for Next Generation Networks
In addition to Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capability with IPv4, the ZX7100 introduces full IPv6 switching for ATCA fabrics. Using the same Linux-based OpenArchitect control software, users may configure static routes or operate any of a variety of protocol stacks for automatic routing.
10Gigabit Ethernet Egress
The power of the ATCA backplane can be well
utilized with up to three 10Gigabit Ethernet egress links on the ZX7100.?Two links are provided to the front panel and one is provided to the optional RTM, giving flexibility for different cabling practices.
