Sanmina-SCI Corp. (San Jose, CA), an electronics manufacturing services (EMS) company, and Teradiant Networks (San Jose, CA), a developer of networking semiconductors, have announced an alliance to accelerate the development of a family of application platforms based on the Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture (ATCA) standard.

 

The platforms' architecture makes it possible for network equipment companies to build systems that scale easily from 20 to 120 Gbps. The platforms are architected around the first ATCA-based traffic management and switching (TMS) card, providing functional integration while reducing power. With industry-standard hardware and a suite of pre-integrated, pre-validate application programming interfaces (APIs), original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) can minimize development time and cost. The API suite also enables OEMs to build proprietary applications that ensure differentiation in their product offerings.

 

With the rollout of scalable platforms in late 2004, Sanmina-SCI and Teradiant will catch the growing wave of interest in ATCA. According to Crystal Cube Consulting, demand for ATCA is expected to produce up to $20 billion per year in networking system sales by the year 2007. ATCA provides a common set of physical and electrical interfaces for telecom and networking equipment, and ATCA-based systems are designed for ease of component reuse and ease of product differentiation.
