ATCA is becoming recognized as the most powerful and flexible platform for telecom applications, as more and more vendors base their advanced products on this standard. But todays ATCA systems do not exploit the full capacity and hidden potential of the standard. One of the major reasons behind this is that the ATCA switch, a mandatory element in every system, still plays only a secondary role only and is used mainly to provide simple connectivity between nodes. Broadanet takes a novel approach, placing the switch at the essential core of the application architecture and work-flow. Unique Broadanet engine combines enhanced switching capabilities and intensive network traffic processing in a single blade.
