Low-risk path from circuit to packet switching
New from RadiSys, the Savvi SX SS7/IP signalling extender is a stand-alone device that connects a legacy circuit-switched SS7 network element to an IP-enabled SS7 network element.
Gateways meet latest Sigtran standards
Radisys Savvi SS7 gateways are now fully conformant to the new Sigtran standards for M2UA and M3UA.
The CE3100 is ideal for embedded applications that require a standard processor module and error correcting code (ECC) memory without the added expense of video and audio functions while delivering the robustness required for demanding telecomms applications.
When incorporated with the RadiSys Promentum ATCA-2210, system designers gain a switch and control module well suited for radio network controller, media gateway, IMS and IPTV applications.
The CE3100 also uses a Core 2 Duo L7400 processor and offers flexible storage options with Serial ATA (SATA) and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) configurations in an effort to meet reliability and cost requirements of both equipment manufacturers and service providers.

"Our latest market leading solution brings the benefits of the COM Express architecture to the communications market", says Wade Clowes, Vice President, Commercial Segment, RadiSys.
"The new RadiSys COM Express module enables designers to utilise a common platform as well as easily upgrade and address changing performance needs as desired".
"RadiSys continues to set the standard in allowing developers to reduce time to market by enabling them to concentrate on their core competencies rather than spending time on processor design".
"The growing use of COM Express products validates the value of this open module to the market".
RadiSys Procelerant CE blades and boards are designed for embedded applications that require a standard processor and memory subsystem, but also modular flexibility to retain key design level IP on a separate carrier board.
Procelerant CE products are based on COM Express, a standard that provides a bridge from legacy interfaces such as PCI and IDE to new serial differential signalling technologies such as PCI Express, Serial ATA, USB 2.0, LVDS and Serial DVO.
Because they are modular and standards-based, RadiSys COM Express products help equipment manufacturers shorten their time to market and reduce development costs.
By removing the processor, chipset and memory from the rest of the design, manufacturers can focus engineering resources on developing differentiating features and avoid the design churn that comes with implementing new processor generations.
