JumpGen Systems Introduces 10Gbps XAUI MicroTCA Development Platform

The XAUI MicroTCA Development Platform Supports JumpGen’s PrAMC line

JumpGen CAM-600 10Gbps XAUI MicroTCA Development Platform

Carlsbad, CA, June 8, 2009 – JumpGen Systems today announced a XAUI MicroTCA Development Platform (CAM-600) to enable customers to begin development quickly with JumpGen’s PRM-100, T6M-100, and TPM-100 AdvancedMC™ (PrAMC) product line supporting 10Gbps Ethernet fabric (fatpipes) connections. JumpGen Systems is working with partners MicroBlade and N.A.T. to configure a highly functional and cost effective MicroTCA development platform for JumpGen customers.

"The CAM-600 provides a compact, cost effective MicroTCA solution that supports all AMC Connector I/O with a single MCH. Typical MicroTCA solutions only support half the AMC I/O with a single MCH and rely on a second MCH to access the full capabilities of our AMCs.” said Harry White, JumpGen Systems President and CEO. " The CAM-600 provides access to all the features and performance capabilities of JumpGen’s XAUI Fabric PrAMC products in a 1U chassis. And our customers are able to deploy highly available, redundant MicroTCA solutions by deploying multiple 1U MicroTCA systems connected via Ethernet."

"The JumpGen XAUI MicroTCA Development Platform is a great example of how MicroBlade is working with strategic partners to provide solutions that are application ready." said Mike Franco the President of MicroBlade and the Chairman of the PICMG technical committee for MicroTCA. "As a MicroTCA system platform provider, MicroBlade works with strategic partners and OEMs to provide engineered solutions that meet their exact needs. In this specific case, MicroBlade worked with JumpGen to provide a system platform solution with a custom backplane to provide a "plug and play" solution that offers optimal performance at a great value."

CAM-600 Features

  • 1U MicroTCA Chassis with 6 Mid-Size AMC Sites, 1 Power Module and 1 MCH
