"It is important for us to have feature-rich products for developers that are upgrading legacy systems or designing new systems with a variety of monitoring requirements.

Previous solutions have not offered the scalability, ease of configuration or the HDLC processing capacity of the HDTBlade", said Charlie Tompkins, Vice President and General Manager of Communications I/O for SBS.

This HDTBlade is composed of a multiple-board architecture consisting of a 6U CompactPCI 2.16 compliant packet processing blade with a PowerPC-based ProcessorPMC (PrPMC) module and a rear transition module (RTM).

Another feature is the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) subsystem used to monitor board voltage conditions, system status and to determine slot position.

A Wintegra network processor supports two Fast Ethernet ports.

This blade is well suited for vital applications such as protocol and applications monitoring, service level agreement (SLA) management, communications security and intelligence monitoring, and network testing and debugging.

A Linux support package is included.

The HDTBlade is available now and can be purchased for $8495.
