Introduction
Advantech's MIC-5320 single-slot AdvancedTCA® processor blade combines computing performance with I/O flexibility in a power efficient design. Supporting Intel's latest Xeon® processors using the new Nehalem microarchitecture and latest DDR3 technology with a 3 channel memory controller integrated into the CPU, the MIC-5320 outperforms previous generation dual socket designs while providing better thermal characteristics. With built-in next generation processor readiness, there is a smooth upgrade path to future processors supporting more than 4 cores.
Using Intel's latest GbE and 10GbE MAC solutions supporting enhanced offloading techniques and virtualization features, MIC-5320 allows users to deploy the full power of multi-core technology. All in all by combining the latest multi core technology, low latency / high speed DDR3 technology, and latest 10GbE technology, MIC-5320 is well suited for high speed data plane applications. Supporting up to 48 GB of memory it can run database in memory applications easily. It is backed up by a 4 channel SAS RAID controller that makes it equally suitable for control plane applications that require disk I/O with RAID and failover support.
The mid-size AMC bay supports more than just mass storage AMCs. With support for PCIe x4 gen 2 as well as base fabric channels and telco clock interfaces, it opens up possibilities for high speed I/O interface integration, telco backhaul interface modules and co-processing engines. In addition to utilizing the chipset's RASUM features, redundant BIOS flashes and onboard USB disks, enhancements to BIOS and firmware to support CMOS backup, and override and HPM.1 upgradeability, make the MIC-5320 a true carrier grade solution.
