Accelerant Networks Presents Seminar Series: ``Breakthrough Backplane Design and Solutions''; Maximizing the Bandwidth of Existing Backplanes.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers BEAVERTON, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 7, 2003 Building on the success of its first seminar series on breakthrough backplane An interconnecting device that has sockets for printed circuit boards to plug into. Passive and Active Although resistors may be used, a "passive" backplane adds no processing in the circuit. solutions, Accelerant ac·cel·er·ant n. Accelerator. Networks presents a second free series entitled en·ti·tle tr.v. en·ti·tled, en·ti·tling, en·ti·tles 1. To give a name or title to. 2. To furnish with a right or claim to something: : "Breakthrough Backplane Design and Solutions." Hosted by Dr. Howard Johnson, renowned lecturer in high-speed design, this seminar series offers practical design techniques and solutions to increase the bandwidth of existing backplanes to 6.25 Gb/s links. Combining its expertise in development of backplane communication solutions with its vast measurement library of over 75 existing and new backplanes, Accelerant Networks presents methods, design rules, and reference design platforms that increase the bandwidth of existing backplanes and enable development of new backplanes that scale to 12.5 Gb/s links. Guest speaker Franz Gisin, Director of Backplane Design and Signal Integrity Design at Sanmina-SCI -- the world's largest independent backplane manufacturer -- will also bring his expertise to the discussion, facilitating a complete solution to high-speed backplane development. "As the leading provider of real solutions for the bandwidth bottleneck A lessening of throughput. It often refers to networks that are overloaded, which is caused by the inability of the hardware and transmission lines to support the traffic. It can also refer to a mismatch inside the computer where slower-speed peripheral buses and devices prevent the CPU that plagues existing equipment, we are often asked to share our knowledge and expertise in the development of complete backplane solutions," says Jim Tavacoli, Vice President of Business Development at Accelerant Networks. "Our seminars are designed to aid system developers in the development of robust, value-added communication systems." Details of Seminar Series The Accelerant Networks seminar series starts in Santa Clara Santa Clara, city, Cuba Santa Clara (sän`tä klä`rä), city (1994 est. pop. 217,000), capital of Villa Clara prov., central Cuba. , CA, on January 31, 2003. Dates for Boston, Raleigh, and Chicago will be announced soon. The Seminars include lunch and follow-up discussions with industry experts. Space is limited in each seminar to enable quality interaction. Optional demonstrations of end-to-end backplane communication solutions, including hardware and software developed by Accelerant Networks and Sanmina-SCI, will be offered before and after the seminar.
