Description
The VPX011 is part of the VadaTech family of 40G switches fully integrated with health management. The health management is the most feature-rich VPX product in the market.
The Ethernet Switch is managed with an enterprise grade Layer-3 switching/routing stack that supports IEEE1588 and Synchronous Ethernet. Each 40GbE port is also configurable to run as four 10GbE or four 1GbE. The switch has a throughput of 730Gb which allows each port to run at full 40G speed without any blocking.
The VPX011 runs Linux on its centralized quad-core CPU.
The module has clock inputs for 1PPS LVCMOS and/or 10MHz sine wave (up to 300MHz) with an on-board PLL that can lock to generate the necessary clocks for SyncE as well IEEE1588v2. The module can act as a PTP-to-NTP bridge and PTP Boundary Clock.
The module has a JTAG Switch Module (JSM) which provides JTAG to each slot. The Virtual Probe allows the JTAG to be managed by the on-board CPU thru an Ethernet port. This can replace having a JTAG dongle to the FPGA modules in the system.
The VPX011 has advanced clocking features including high-quality clock distribution/synthesis to the two VPX P0 clocks across the backplane.
