1 Overview
1.1 Introduction
The ADLINK aTCA-9700 is a high performance AdvancedTCA® (ATCA) processor blade
featuring dual 8-core Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2658/2680 V2, Intel® C604 PCH, eight-
channel memory up to 128GB of DDR3 memory and 400W power supply subsystem. Versatile
connectivity includes four 40GbE Fabric Interfaces, dual GbE Base Interfaces, dual front panel
GbE egress ports, front panel dual COM and USB 2.0 ports and front panel VGA connector.
An onboard SATA connector supports a disk on module (DOM) up to 128GB and the optional
RTM (aTCA-R9700) supports six 10GbE SFP+ ports and one hot-swappable SAS bay
providing additional network throughput and storage capacities.
The aTCA-9700's thermal solution (including VRM heat sink) ensures stable operation under
extreme operating environments and allows for compliance to the NEBS Level 3 standard
(design only). The robust computing power and reliability of the aTCA-9700 meets the
requirements of telecom equipment manufacturers (TEMs) and network equipment providers
(NEPs), allowing them to build the next-generation telecom networks and communication
infrastructures.
Detailed features are outlined below and a functional block diagram is shown in the next
section.
