Advantech ATCA Blades Systems Integration Customized COTS Platform Management Resources

Leading the Way with 40G and 100G ATCA Blade Innovation

The cornerstones of our ATCA product line are the blades designed in our own labs and manufactured on our own production lines. That way we manage the entire life cycle and control all our costs to give customers the best service at the right price. Our x86, NPU, DSP and switch blades are designed in unison with the leading silicon suppliers to give you early access to the very latest technology to accelerate your next generation product design and give you first mover advantage.

Our Intel® Xeon® blades are the application powerhouses. With 10 blades in 14-slots connected to four 40 Gigabit Ethernet switches across a dual dual-star backplane you can’t get faster network traffic in and out of an x86 blade. Advantech was the first to provide 160 Gigabits per second of aggregated bandwidth spread over four 40 Gigabit ports from a dual Intel® Xeon® blade. What’s more, our MIC-53xx series with their modular FMM concept add flexibility to personalize the blade with more I/O ports, acceleration and offload. You can configure them precisely for your application workload – so you get what you want and you pay only for what you need.
