Overview of the Sun Netra CP3060 Blade
Server
The Sun Netra CP3060 blade server is a high-performance single-blade server
computer based on one UltraSPARC
availability in a switched network computing environment. This blade server is
compliant with Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture
(PICMG
compactPCI (cPCI) standards-based products targeted for telco markets.
The PICMG (PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group) standards committee
has developed the new ATCA (or PICMG 3.x) standard to address the issues posed
by previous standards based on cPCI and cPSB (PICMG 2.x). The PICMG 3.x
specification brought the following changes to the existing PICMG 2.x family of
products:
Larger board space (8U high compared to 6U for cPCI), which allows more
features and processing power
On-board power supplies deriving local power from redundant −48V power from
the midplane (rather than separate power supplies)
®
3.0 and PICMG 3.1) and can achieve greater performance levels than
®
T1 multicore processor and designed for high
®
(ATCA) specifications
