The ATCA-2210 is the industries first 10 Gigabit (10GE) capable AdvancedTCA switch and control module. It is ideal for next generation network elements in 3G-wireless and wire-line infrastructure. It meets or exceeds the switching requirements for applications like Radio Network Controllers (RNC/BSC), Media Gateways, IMS (CSCF, Application and Media servers) and IPTV.

The ATCA-2210 is architected to be the heart of a cost-effective ATCA platform, providing highly integrated, centralized common equipment functions – switching, shelf management, network timing and system management functionalities. It incorporates innovative and modular design to provide a highly configurable solution. For example, the designer can configure the switch to suit the requirements for the architecture by choosing optional capabilities like network timing and system management as needed.

The NEBS compliant carrier grade ATCA-2210 includes comprehensive switching and blade management software.
