KSI8560_med


Emerson’s KSI8560 is a flexible single-wide AdvancedMC™ (AMC) module that serves as a general purpose processor (GPP) AMC or a high-density WAN I/O AMC. As a GPP module, the KSI8560 gives networking equipment manufacturers a costeffective and powerful modular processing element with its on-board Freescale™ PowerQUICC III™ MPC8560 processor. With its add-on WAN interface, the KSI8560 provides users a high density I/O module ideal for data and signaling applications such as signaling gateways and softswitch signaling interface cards. Up to eight T1/E1/J1 interfaces are available.

The KSI8560 is designed with carrier grade features to address a high uptime environment. Its dual-flash bank architecture and persistent memory enable network equipment manufacturers to achieve five nines uptime. Plus it provides the scalability needed with its Gigabit Ethernet and PCI Express via the AMC Common Options region and Fat Pipes region, respectively. Open standards such as ATCA and µTCA offer a flexible system and application design. To accommodate this flexibility, the KSI8560 is available in compact, mid-, and full-size configurations.

The KSI8560 is optionally integrated with Emerson’s SpiderWare® protocol software and appropriate ATCA or µTCA products for turnkey solutions thus accelerating time to market.
