ADAX DELIVERS FOUR PORT SS7 CONTROLLER FOR LOW PROFILE
PCI EXPRESS
HDC3 PROVIDES SUPERIOR SCALABILITY, FLEXIBILITY AND
PRICE PERFORMANCE RATIOS
30th October 2008, Berkeley, CA - Adax Inc, an industry leader
in high
performance signaling infrastructure, has launched the HDC3-Low Profile
PCI
Express (PCIe) four port SS7 controller: HDC3-LPe. With four physical
ports on
board, rather than the normal two, Adax’s Low Profile PCIe card
maximizes system
density and helps to reduce points of failure by removing the need
for Y cables
ensuring NEBS certification isn’t affected when four connections
are required.
The HDC3 is a high density, high performance solution ideal for narrowband
and
broadband signaling applications and is being released following
rigorous testing on
many rack-mounted servers and trials by customers. Delivering up
to 124 MTP2
links or four HSLs (Q.703 Annex A or ATM AAL5) per card, the HDC3-LPe
board is
able to perform many thousands of transactions per second, placing
minimal load on
the host, maximizing application performance and ensuring no degradation
of service
for the customer.
“Increasingly providers such as Sun and HP are making only
Low Profile PCI
Express slots available in their rack-mount server ranges and the
Low Profile PCIe
format saves space, leaving server manufacturers more room for
bigger and faster
host CPUs,” explains Dr. Barry Zuckerman, Adax President & CEO
. “As the
only vendor who can support a single software driver and a common API
across the
whole range of board formats our HDC3 saves development time and provides
a
rapid return on investment.”
The Adax HDC3 family is available in PMC, AMC, PCI/X and PCIe board
formats.
The board is dynamically configurable and can deliver up to 8 T1/E1
ports and 248
channels of multiple protocols, including SS7 MTP2, LAPB/D/V5,
Frame Relay, X.25
and HDLC per card. ATM AAL5 is also supported for broadband SS7.
With the
ability to install multiple cards in a system, the HDC3 provides
a totally scalable,
flexible and cost-effective solution that is ideal for any signaling
need.
