From Diversified Technology, Inc.
 

 
Today's market is composed of many segmented components defined by PICMG's ATCA standards: from node boards and hub boards to shelf management and industrial chassis equipment. Each vendor will make their push to promote unique features and superior advantages of their ATCAproducts over the competitors. What criteria are key to delivering a costeffective, highly reliable telecommunications / networking platform? How does one transition the legacy solution that today manages circuits and packets without creating service interruptions? It is not unusual for the market to demand a product with high performance and low price that demand minimal development cost. Time-to-market also maintains a high priority with the TEMS to support their global communication requirements. The vendors who invest in the standards-based, board level AdvancedTCA products and roadmaps, plus take the risks associated with derivatives of standardized products, will have an advantage over their competitors. Potential surface risks include differentiation and individuality, as well as support of legacy-deployed telecommunication systems.

Products & Services
AdvancedTCA products use advanced telecom computing architecture (AdvancedTCA), an open standard for high-speed, high-performance telecommunications systems.
Parallel industrial communications computer boards are boards or ports that transmit character data (byte) by sending the bits down parallel electrical paths simultaneously.
Enclosure and rack accessories are products and components for industrial, electronic, and computer racks and enclosures.
Industrial chassis and card cages are metal frames that support and contain electronic components and power supplies. They generally have a backplane with slots to install other peripherals and accessories.
Multipurpose computer boards can perform numerous, related functions. Examples include modem/fax cards, modem/Ethernet cards, and serial/parallel adapters.
