Abstract
A multi-service platform system (100) having a VXS backplane (104) includes a VXS payload module (102) coupled to the VXS backplane, and a switched fabric enabled mezzanine card (112) coupled to the VXS payload module, wherein the switched fabric enabled mezzanine card is coupled to directly communicate with the VXS backplane.
Claims22
A multi-service platform system having a VXS backplane, comprising:
- a VXS payload module coupled to the VXS backplane;
- and
- a switched fabric enabled mezzanine card coupled to the VXS payload module, wherein the switched fabric enabled mezzanine card is coupled to directly communicate with the VXS backplane.
A VXS payload module, comprising:
- a switched fabric enabled mezzanine card connection site;
- and
- a switched fabric connector in a P0 mechanical envelope, wherein the switched fabric enabled mezzanine card connection site is directly coupled to the switched fabric connector, enabling a switched fabric enabled mezzanine card coupled to the switched fabric enabled mezzanine card site to directly communicate with a VXS backplane.
A method, comprising:
- providing a VXS payload module coupled to a VXS backplane;
- coupling a switched fabric enabled mezzanine card to the VXS payload module;
- and
- the switched fabric enabled mezzanine card directly communicating with the VXS backplane.
1 more element
A method, comprising:
- providing a VXS payload module coupled to a VXS backplane;
- coupling a switched fabric enabled mezzanine card to the VXS payload module;
- and
- enabling the switched fabric enabled mezzanine card as an independent node on a switched fabric running on the VXS backplane.
