Rear Transition Module


ATCA rear transition module is an I/O extension for Advantech ATCA CPU blades. To meet serviceability, it is designed as a fully managed and hot swappable FRU. On board SAS controller supports two 2.5 inch hot swappable SAS HDDs which operate up to 3.0 Gbit/s, and provides external mini SAS connectors on rear panel for failover cabling. Via USB-to-UART transceiver, frontboard UART can be exported to mini USB connector on RTM. Two Ethernet GbE ports provide extra two I/O LANs for rear access. Two

  • RTM-5101


    The RTM-5101 is a single slot (6HP) ATCA rear transition module for I/O extension of Advantech ATCA CPU blades. To meet serviceability, RTM-5101 is designed as a fully managed,and hot swappable FRU. On board SAS controller (LSI logic: LSI1064) supports two 2.5" hot swappable SAS HDDs which operates up to 3.0 Gbit/s and provides external mini SAS connectors on rear panel for failover cabling. Via USB-to-UART transceiver, frontboard UART can be exported to miniUSB connector on RTM (if frontboard UART MUX is routed accordingly.) Two Ethernet GbE ports provide extra two I/O Lans for rear access. Two USB ports (USB 2.0) support versatile USB devices (keyboard, mouse, USB stick, USB-CDROM…etc). One PCI Express x1 interface supports one mini PCIe socket for flexible expansion. Advantech provides mini PCIe VGA module (optional) for debugging purpose.


  • RTM-5104


    The RTM-5104 is a single slot (6HP) ATCA rear transition module for I/O extension of Advantech ATCA CPU blades. To meet serviceability requirements, RTM-5104 is designed as a fully managed and hot swappable FRU. The storage tray supports up to two 2.5" SAS HDD or four MO-297A SSD’s, and can be operated up to 3.0 Gbits/sec. Two external mini SAS connectors are provided on the rear panel for failover cabling as a separate part number. The RTM implements a miniUSB connector that provides a host powered USB slave port exposing a UART port of the front blade via USB. Two Ethernet GbE ports provide two additional I/O ports for rear LAN access. One USB port (USB 2.0) supports USB devices such as keyboard, mouse, USB Flash drive, or USB-CDROM.

    The RTM also implements one Fabric Mezzanine Module type II socket to support flexible IO extension like 10GE ports, a server type graphics module or PCIe expressed based offload.

  • RTM-5106


    The RTM-5106 is a single slot ATCA rear transition module for I/O extension of Advantech ATCA CPU blades. It contains 4 Intel ii82599ES (Niantic) controllers and sites for 8 SFP ports. The RTM-5106 will provide additional 10GE ports for external access and connectivity to the mating front blade. Two i82599ES devices connect to each of the CPU sockets on the front blade for balanced IO and maximum platform throughput. This allows up to 80Gbps of Ethernet traffic to be terminated on the CPU blade without loading the AdvancedTCAR backplane fabric. . The SFP ports are using EMI cages, which are compliant with the Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) and are designed to host SR, LR and ER transceivers.
