About Networks & Telecom

Networks & Telecom Ecosystem Alliance Initiative

IP-based Customer-centric Network ConvergenceVoice, data and video networks are converging around the Internet Protocol. Because telecommunications and IT networks were originally built on separate and disparate technologies with little commonality, it used to be both complex and costly for service providers to implement new services. But today, with the convergence to an all-IP network, video, just like voice becomes simply another application which can run on commercial off-the-shelf systems. Service providers no longer have to rely on customized hardware alone to create new service offerings, and can create customer value by using software applications to create new services.

A Common Set of Core TechnologiesAs new multimedia services and the use of open-systems drive explosive new revenue growth, internet-based technologies will dramatically reduce capital and operating costs. In addition, the new IP-based applications and services can all employ a common set of core technologies, which means they can also take advantage of security software to handle encryption, firewalls, anti-virus, intrusion detection or prevention, helping mitigate risk. Moreover, the deeper packet processing capabilities of multi-core devices helps improve both quality of service and user experience.

Synergy and ScalabilityConvergence in the network has stimulated synergy between Advantech product divisions to build a scalable offering spanning tabletop appliances for small-to-medium businesses, 1U/2U rackmount appliances for medium-to-large enterprises, and bladed computing elements for large enterprises, data centers and core networks. Advantech’s ATCA and Packetarium™ platforms break new performance barriers in scalable, converged computing while taking alternative system design approaches. Both provide powerful and scalable multi-core building blocks, offering the best in 10 GigE and GigE packet processing.

Design ExpertiseNew design concepts like Advantech’s Packetarium™ streamline integration of multi-core x86, DSP and NPU elements along with the latest switching technologies, to provide highly flexible and cost-efficient system configurability. The Packetarium™ brand of dedicated networking modules and carriers are available in multiple form factors for both standard and customized platforms, and share common design features in order to accelerate system design and maximize hardware and software re-use.

Our networking OEM customers are extending their reach into larger-scale enterprises, data centers, and core network spaces. Advantech’s cross-industry expertise in appliances, servers and blade computing elements makes us the ideal technology partner for standard and custom designs.

Cost E�ciencyWhile our dedicated appliances target customizable, white-box requirements for cost-effective, large volume deployment, our ATCA, AMC and Packetarium blades offer a more modular, open approach. With the ability to quickly re-deploy designs across multiple form-factors, Advantech is able to pass on greater economies of scale to customers. In addition, Packetarium™ provides wider architectural choices at the high-end and allows essential cost versus feature trade-offs to be made by equipment providers.

Proven product interoperability means OEMs can readily integrate tested combinations of hardware and software components with total confidence. In a fast-paced market this allows them to test and deliver innovative solutions more rapidly and respond more effectively to emerging customer needs.

At Advantech, participating ecosystem partners collaborate to meet customers’ application-specific needs by facilitating the transformation of diverse leading-edge embedded technologies into readily available business solutions. Advantech is building an alliance of strategic partners made up of leaders in each of their respective areas of expertise. Together, these companies provide all of the essential components for developing, verifying, integrating and building high performance products.
