Emerson’s Katana750i is real-time processing blade in a standard single-slot CompactPCI Packet Switched Backplane (cPSB) formfactor. It’s powered by a PowerPC 750FX processor and a full complement of I/O for communications applications. The combination of this powerful on-card functionality with the flexibility of dual PMC sites makes the board ideal for a variety of functions including signaling blade, real-time control blade, traffic processor, or line card.

Communications applications are rapidly converging on packet-based switch fabric system architectures. Katana750i’s design is ideally suited to the packet paradigm. To support this paradigm, the blade is fully compliant with the PICMG 2.16 cPSB specification. While technology is rapidly converging on packet networks for the majority of data transport, many applications require systems to link more traditional TDM-based networks to the packet networks. To help facilitate this, the Katana750i supports an optional timeslot interchanger to interconnect the PTMC expansion sites with a local CTbus as well as provide an interface to the H.110 system backplane CTbus.

As systems designs become more complex, system management becomes more important. Katana750i implements a System Management Bus (SMB). It also fully supports the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI or PICMG 2.9) for standards-based system management.

Using an off-the-shelf processor blade saves you time-to-market by allowing you to focus your engineering efforts on the key value-add portions of the system without spending time and effort on the processor design and testing. A processor subsystem blade also lowers your lifetime cost of ownership by providing an easy upgrade path, and protecting you from obsolescence issues.
