5.1Hardware Architecture

The Netra CP3260 blade server is an ATCA node board based on the UltraSPARC T2 processor. It is hot-swappable to an ATCA midplane and supports dual 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet interfaces as Base interface, and 10-Gb XAUI or 1-Gb SERDES Ethernet interfaces as Fabric interfaces to support a redundant Dual Star topology.

FIGURE 5-1is a block diagram of the Netra CP3260 blade server. The blade server functions can be broken down into subsystems consisting of:

■CPU and memory subsystem

■Service processor subsystem

■I/O subsystem

■IPMI subsystem

■Power subsystem
