CP-TA addresses AdvancedTCA and MicroTCA interoperability
As with any specification, the PICMG AdvancedTCA and MicroTCA specifications can be interpreted by users in different ways.
As a result of these varying interpretations, firmware designers and implementers have occasionally created building blocks that are not interoperable with one another.
Nirlay will address interoperability in this article, beginning with the objectives of the Communications Platforms Trade Association (CP-TA, www.cp-ta.or...

Delivering Ethernet-based backplane fabrics for AdvancedTCA-based Carrier Ethernet designs
Carrier Ethernet, also called CE, is emerging as a new low-cost transport mechanism that can replace SONET-SDH in backbone and access networks.
It does this by provisioning point-to-point tunnels with redundant paths and fast fail-over capability.
But it must also provide Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms in order to enable service level guarantees for traffic such as voice, video, and storage.
Although CE shares basic packet transport funct...
