System Overview

PDSi’s Intel-based CompactPCI x86 Processor Blade (CP86-N1) provides a robust, high-performance general purpose compute platform for use in CompactPCI PICMG 2.16 systems. This latest addition to PDSi’s ComputeNode™ family of carrier-grade CompactPCI solutions is built around Intel’s 45nm technology “Penryn” Core 2 Duo processor and server-grade “Eagle Lake” chipset (5100 MCH / ICH9R) supporting ECC memory. This powerful, compact blade offers the highest performance and dependability in its class.

The ComputeNode CP86-N1 blade includes a standard PMC/XMC site for I/O expansion and is offered in two alternate models, one featuring an onboard SATA hard drive plus high resolution graphics, the other providing a second PMC expansion site. On-blade options include a USB Flash drive. Rear I/O capability covers a very broad range of interfaces that can be accessed through one of PDSi’s companion rear transition modules (RTMs). Two 1000Base-T Ethernet ports provide the PICMG 2.16-compliant fabric interfaces, making the CP86-N1 fully compatible with any ComputeNode cPSB chassis.

PDSi gives telecom, aerospace, and military OEMs the ability to deploy configurable, scalable, high-reliability cPCI solutions using this powerful compute blade based on the latest Intel technology. Extended availability from PDSi is assured as key components are supported by embedded roadmaps. PDSi can also provide customization, turnkey integration and support of cPCI systems, as well as extended warranty and repair services.
