Sun Microsystems CP3250 manual Overview, Features

1.1Overview

The Sun Netra CP3250 blade server is a dual-socket quad-core Intel-based ATCA blade for high performance ATCA x86 applications in wireless infrastructure and central office consolidation.

This blade server complies with the AdvancedTCA specification and is a new addition to SUN's ATCA product family.

The ATCA standard comprises the PICMG 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 versions of the standard. The Sun Netra CP3250 blade server complies with the following specifications:

■PICMG 3.0, the base specification that defines the mechanical, power distribution, system management, data transport, and regulatory guidelines.

■PICMG 3.1, which builds on the PICMG 3.0 base specification and on IEEE 802.3-2003.

1.2Features

The blade server’s primary features are as follows:

■ATCA card 322.25 mm x280 mm, 1.2 inch slot height

■Two Harpertown Processor Sockets, QuadCore version @2.135 GHz and up to 40W per CPU

■Intel San Clemente North Bridge and Intel ICH9R I/O controller hub

■DDR2 (registered, with ECC) at 667 MHz, up to six modules/cards, up to 4 GB per DIMM, in very-low-profile design (0.72 inch height)

■Two 1000MBASE-T Ethernet base fabric (PICMG 3.0) interface ports (using BCM5715C) from PCIe x4

■Two 10 Gb XAUI Ethernet extended fabric (PICMG 3.1) interface ports (using Sun Neptune) from PCIe x8

■One AMC.1 Type 8S2E2 expansion slot (PCIe x8) supporting I/O expansion with signaling to the advanced rear transition module (ARTM)

■One Asynchronous serial port routed to front panel and ARTM from SuperIO
