Telum(TM) GE-QT NIC adds Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to
AdvancedMC(TM) and
AdvancedTCA(R) systems --4 Gigabit Ethernet ports accessible through the front panel --x4 PCI Express bus --TCP CRC (Cyclical Redundancy Checking) An error checking technique used to ensure the accuracy of transmitting digital data. The transmitted messages are divided into predetermined lengths which, used as dividends, are divided by a fixed divisor. calculation and segmentation offloading --VxWorks(R), Linux(R), Microsoft(R) Windows(R) and other drivers available Today at SuperComm(R) 2005, SBS Technologies(R) (NASDAQ: SBSE), a leading provider of one of the broadest lines of data and communications mezzanine modules in the embedded telecommunications industry, announced the Telum GE-QT Advanced Mezzanine Card Advanced Mezzanine Cards are printed circuit boards (PCBs) that follow a specification of the PCI Industrial Computers Manufacturers Group (PICMG), with more than 100 companies participating. Known as AdvancedMC™, the official specification designation is AMC. (AdvancedMC) Gigabit Ethernet Network Interface Card. The single-width, full-height Telum GE-QT is compliant with PICMG An industry consortium that develops specifications for backplanes and interconnects for electronic equipment in the industrial and telecom fields. It was founded in 1994 as the PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group, hence the acronym. (R)'s AMC (Advanced Mezzanine Card) See AdvancedTCA. .1 specification for AdvancedMC. The Telum GE-QT is a 4-port Gigabit Ethernet AdvancedMC card providing high bandwidth and high port density. It is ideal for adding Ethernet capability to AdvancedTCA telecommunication platforms and other platforms with AdvancedMC slots that require additional Ethernet links. This single-width, full-height AdvancedMC form factor card offers greater design flexibility and maximizes port density on the carrier card or host board. "The Telum GE-QT AdvancedMC Ethernet card will allow system developers to take advantage of Gigabit Ethernet performance when adding network connectivity to their AdvancedTCA and AdvancedMC systems," said Bill Molyneux, Vice President and General Manager of SBS See Small Business Server. General Purpose I/O Products. "This card is a perfect choice as the Ethernet network component for the SBS AMC-7S-CHASSIS AdvancedMC rackmount system." The card uses a x4 PCI Express bus as the data bus and conforms to the AMC.1 specification. To reduce host CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. utilization, the AdvancedMC Ethernet controller supports TCP CRC and segmentation offloading. The Ethernet network interface complies with IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. 802.3 specification and supports 10BaseT, 100BaseTX and 1000BaseT modes over CAT-5 or better twisted pair cable. Each Ethernet port on the Telum GE-QT features auto-negotiation and automatic MDI/MDIX switchover enabling greater compatibility with existing devices and infrastructure. Both full and half-duplex modes are supported. Telum GE-QT implements an IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) A protocol for monitoring server hardware for temperature, voltage, chassis intrusion, etc. Introduced in 1998 by Intel, HP, NEC and Dell, IPMI defines a standard set of messages for the characteristics of hardware controller as defined in the AdvancedMC standard. This controller provides access to an on-board temperature sensor enabling voltage level and advanced thermal monitoring. Price and Availability: Available now, OEM pricing for the Telum GE-QT is US$594. About SBS Technologies(R) SBS Technologies, Inc.
