The Pm8560 is a Processor PCI Mezzanine Card (ProcessorPMC) module with up to 8 E1/T1/J1 interfaces.

The Pm8560 is ideal for 3G (UTMS & W-CDMA) and 2.5G (GPRS) data and signaling applications. The module is capable of supporting a wide variety of protocols including SS7 and SIGTRAN. Other applications include signaling gateways and softswitches as a signaling interface card.

The Pm8560 includes a reduced media-independent interface (RMII) on Pn3 for Ethernet PHYs and management interface.

Physical connectivity of E1/T1/J1 spans the Pm8560 via rear transition modules (RTMs) that interface from either 2.16/cPSB blades or AdvancedTCA blades such as Emerson’s Katana product line.
