Abstract :
The Advanced TCA is a relatively new open industry specification for building high-performance telecommunications and data communications systems. In this paper, we propose a cost effective EPON blade based on ATCA system which can provide support for multi-protocol interfaces at rates as high as 40 Gbps. ATCA system also provides high levels of modularity and configurability, allowing a range of vendors to drive competitive solutions to market. In this paper, we use Zone3 backplane as well as Zone2 backplane to provide eight EPON links in a standard I/O blade. Since the proposed EPON blade is designed to be compatible with an ATCA system, it is easy to integrate a high performance system with a reduced time and low costs.
