The IPnexus™ CPC5086 12U General Purpose PICMG® 2.16 Platform is an extremely flexible, high availability platform, configurable for both compute-intensive and I/O-intensive applications. Part of the Advanced Managed Platform offering, it provides OEM equipment designers with a carrier-grade, standards-based, high availability computing platform for demanding, mission-critical applications.
The CPC5086 platform supports five-nines (99.999%) availability with built-in redundancy for active system components including Ethernet switches, intelligent shelf managers (ISMs), power supplies and fan trays. Redundant ISMs enable customers to manage multiple single board computers and conduct chassis diagnostics remotely for enhanced system reliability. Ethernet signals are routed across the midplane without the use of cables, saving time in setup, maintenance and repair and minimizing the thermal challenges of traditional cabling methods.
The CPC5086 platform does not include a CompactPCI® bus, ensuring that there are no compatibility issues with boards that may have conflicts with a PCI bus.
The midplane supports up to 18 independent servers communicating over the PICMG 2.16-compliant Ethernet midplane (slots 3-20) and a single H.110 telephony bus spanning all 18 node slots. There are three V(I/O) planes that can be set separately for either 3.3V or 5V operation; two for each fabric plane and one for the 18 node slots plane.

The CPC5086 includes two redundant IPnexus CPC7301 Intelligent Shelf Managers (ISMs) operating in active/standby mode. The CPC7301 is the central management component for all Performance Technologies’ PICMG 2.16-compliant platforms. It implements the PICMG 2.9 specification for a standards-based interface, allowing management of third-party, IPMI-based products within an IPnexus platform. The ISM software interfaces are comprehensive, including a Web-based GUI, command line interface (CLI), SNMP and more. It communicates with components in the CPC5086 via point-to-point IPMB buses in a unique star topology to achieve secure, comprehensive, highly available management.
The CPC5086 platform supports a redundant, scalable power solution, accommodating up to eight 3U CompactPCI power supplies, divided into two separate power subsystems. This power architecture provides N+N redundant power supplies and receives input power from redundant DC or AC inputs.
This is critical in central office locations where two power plants deliver redundant DC input into high availability devices. These two power subsystems maintain isolation of these inputs (no diode OR’ing) to ensure that failure of one will not affect the power input of the other.

The CPC5086 can power and cool up to 1300W total. The platform houses three hot-swappable fan trays, serviceable from the front. Each tray includes three blowers and spans the distance from front to back of the chassis. The front blower cools the front card cage area and the rear blower cools the power supplies and rear of the card cage. The middle blower cools both areas, providing N+1 redundant cooling for the entire chassis (see Figure 3).
Performance Technologies’ Advanced Managed Platform offering, built upon the intelligent AMP™ Architecture, ensures standards-based, reliable and comprehensive management throughout all active platform components, including the power supplies.
