Features

Description

Dual Multicore Packet

Processor Units

Dual Cavium Networks OCTEON II CN68xx MIPS64 v2 processors, each with up to 32-cores at up to

1.5 GHz depending on maximum power configuration; Interlaken lanes x 4 between the two OCTEON

II processors

Memory

Eight (4 per processor) DDR3 DIMM sockets each supporting 32GB address range for up to 256GB for

both processors once 32GB VLP DIMMs are available
Up to 1333 MHz ECC DIMM
eUSB Flash drive (16GB/32GB) per OCTEON II processor

Ethernet Multilayer Switch

Broadcom BCM56842 320Gbps Ethernet Multilayer Switch.
Broadcom StrataXGS®IV high performance Ethernet Switch Architecture
The BCM56842 switch provides 18 integrated WarpCores (72 SerDes)
Each WarpCore is configurable to support the following options:
One 40G-KR4, Four 10G-KR1/XFI/SFI, One 10G-XAUI, Four 1000Base-X/SGMII
Managed by the Unit Computer through a PCIe x1 Gen1 (2.5 Gbps)
One 1000Base-X link to the Unit Computer
The switch represents the central point of the AT8242. It manages the connections to the NPUs, the

RTM, the IPMC, the UC, the base interfaces and the fabric interfaces.

I/O Interfaces

Front: 2x RS232 - RJ45 ports, one to each OCTEON II processor
Front: 1x RS232 - RJ45 port to the switch management processor
Front: 1x 10/100/1000Base-T via RJ45 port to switch management processor

Switch Management

Processor

Single core Freescale P2010 processor
Manages the Broadcom Ethernet switch through a PCIe x1 Gen1 (2.5 Gbps) lane
One serdes lane is routed between SM processor and Broadcom switch
SM processor connected to: 1GB DDR3 ECC SODIMM; redundant NOR flash support

Telco Clock

Telco clock support provided

Rear Transition Module

(RTM)

Two RTM options:
RTM8242: 84 Gbps total available bandwidth; supports 8 SFP+ (FI) connectors, 4x GbE SFP (BI)

connectors;
RTM8940: up to 82Gbps: 2x 1G SFP (BI), 2x 40G QSFP (FI)* with LRM support, and optional Telco PLL

(incl. optional SyncE support).
* The second QSFP can be disabled to activate the 4x 10G SFP+ ports (FI)

IPMI Features

Designed with IPMC, Dual IPMB, IPMI v2.0
Extensive sensor monitoring and event generation on thresholds
Two redundant IPMI firmware with rollover
Serial over LAN (IPMI v2.0) connectivity to the two CN68xx processors and the Management

Processor
