Leveraging Cost-Optimized FPGAs to Deliver OTN Mapper Solutions
TPACK's TPO124 is based on low-cost 40-nm FPGA or HardCopy ASIC technology, which means that innovative developers can offer flexible semiconductor products with lower cost and lower power than alternative solutions based on standard cell-based ASICs.
Packet-OTN The Transformation Continues
TPACK addresses the evolution of the “P-OTN” or Packet Optical Transport Network market. That is to say, packet transport networks built upon the ITU T’s established set of OTN network standards such as Recommendation G.709.
Enabling Ethernet-Over-NG-SONET_SDH Solutions for MSPP Linecards
This white paper shows how TPACK uses Altera’s Arria® II GX FPGAs to offer new SOFTSILICON products for carrier-Ethernet-transport and packet-transport applications.
Power-Optimized Solutions for Telecom Applications
Addressing the need for lower power consumption in telecommunication chip applications using TPACK SOFTSILICON products based on the latest Altera FPGA devices.
Rationalize system design with Universal Linecards
A business case showing how a Universal Linecard approach using TPACK solutions can result in savings of up to 40%.
P-OTN: Packet Optical Network Transformation
An introduction to the new Packet Optical Transport Network (P-OTN) concept with an overview of Optical Transport Networks (OTN).
