» Achieve Time and Cost Reductions with Open Communication Platforms (OCP) «
A surefire way for equipment vendors to overcome many of the key resource, time, and cost challenges when designing carrier grade and mission critical network communications equipment is to start with Kontron Open Communication Platforms (OCP). The Freedom To Design Your Way - More Choice, More Innovation, More SuccessKontron works closely with telecom equipment manufacturers (TEM ) and network equipment providers (NEP) clients to match the right mix of integrated hardware and software platforms to your specific system-level network solutions. Kontron offers an ample breadth of standardized Application-Ready hardware components and platforms that include 10G and 40G Carrier Grade AdvancedTCA (ATCA) and MicroTCA multicore platforms, plus a range of Carrier Grade and Mission Critical Communications Rack Mount Servers. Add to this a choice of service levels for the integration of OS, middleware, and HPI software, and third-party hardware component validation. A Few Things Our Telecom Customers Really Appreciate About Us:
Quick Links to Products- Open Communication Platforms (OCP) - OCP Blades & Modules - Communication Rack Mount Servers - Server Boards xTCA and CRMS Application Areas» Telecommunication Networks: - Call Servers/Gateway Controllers/VoIP-Server - HLR/HSS, IMS (x-CSCF, MRF) - Media Gateway/Trunking GW - Application and Media Server & Proxies - Packet core – SGSN, GGSN - Signalling Gateway - Radio Network Controller (RNC) - WiMAX Access Controller (WAC) - Base Station (BTS, Node B; WiMAX) - Video / IPTV - transcoding/storage - IP-PBX Media Server | Real World HYBRID ScenariosKontron provides both Carrier Grade xTCA integrated platforms and Carrier Grade Rack Mount Servers. Why? Because more often than not, telecom equipment manufacturers and network equipment providers need both as part of their overall infrastructure portfolio marketed to carrier clients. Depending on the network application, a combination of one or both types of platforms are needed within a single rack. Kontron can uniquely provide TEMs and NEPs the right levels of performance, density, and scalability, all within required energy efficiencies. ![]() |

Digital Radio Communication

Due to its extended temperature range, high reliability, and scalability a low power Intel® Pentium III and Pentium 4 up to 2,4 GHz based on a CompactPCI board from Kontron have been chosen to realize the next generation of cellular phone network. TETRA (Terrestrial Trunked Radio) is a standard defined by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). This Digital Radio System contributes higher privacy, better audio quality and improves the speed in data transmission and the capacity of access to other nets, like Internet, fixed phone nets. The use of the radio communications based on the standard TETRA, is mainly guided toward professional users that need a high specialization and reliability in its communications (e.g. police, fire department), with an inferior cost than the GSM system.vOur customer is developing a TETRA-based product range including mobile and dispatcher terminals, a 2nd generation handheld, a low cost RF TETRA modem and local/regional coverage infrastructure.
Telecommunications - Chicago, USA

Voice, data and video communications is standard business practice for many organizations today. Service providers operate complex networks built upon Kontron high availability open platforms to converge these technologies and deliver managed services and content to their customers.
Cross Connect Computer Platform

For the management of leased lines powerful computer systems with a high degree of availability have to be applied. In this range our engineers developed a system concept of a highly compact computer platform. A 64 bit capable CompactPCI architecture with a SPARC CPU under Solaris 8 has been selected. For optimum connectivity the design supports up to 26 Ethernet ports plus two separate SCSI buses and the specific extensions NVRAM and tempterature monitoring and shutdown. Beside the system concept, Kontron Applications provided the entire driver development, documentation, and certification. As an OEM-partner Kontron Applications delivers the systems after a 100% testing directly to the end customers.
Blueslice delivers the first commercially available HLR built on an AdvancedTCA open modular system provided by Kontron.
The Blueslice carrier-grade, open modular HLR supports a database scalable to several million subscriber profiles in a small 12U footprint, with no single point of failure in both hardware and software. With features that specifically target the MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator) market, the Blueslice ngHLR 3000™ supports VoIP/WiFi, 3G, and IMS in the same platform, and is compliant with GSM Phase 2+ Release 4, and 3GPP R5/R6. As an open, non-proprietary platform designed with Kontron AdvancedTCA processor, switch, and chassis building blocks, the ngHLR 3000™ is changing the HLR paradigm for mobile operators.
Mediation Device for Network Management
The Mediation Device is an intelligent System for Telecommunication Management Network (TMN) of a leading Telecom supplier.
For the manangement of distributed net elements the various data flows have to be acquired and conditioned. HDLC, X.25, ISDN and Ethernet are the interfaces that allows the communication with the various networks. The system platform is an 19" rackmount embedded system.
The Kontron engineers provided the design and realization of the entire system with development of the peripheral hardware and certification of the system. Moreover Kontron developed the basic runtime software, drivers and protocol software with asynchronous and HDLC protocols. The delivery to the customer includes the whole system with testing and a customer specific packaging.
