ATCA-9405 Data Sheet
ATCA-9405 Overview
The ATCA-9405 packet processing blade has been developed for
the most demanding applications intomorrow’s communication
networks. With support for up to 160Gbps Gigabit Ethernet (GbE)
I/O bandwidthand a redundant 40GbE fabric, it allows thedesign of
compact application systems for theupcoming new IP data
infrastructure.
Target applications are LTE transport and control plane functions,
secure cloud services like application-aware switching, load
balancers and security appliances like IDS and IPS.
Two Cavium OCTEON II CN6880 multi-core MIPS64processor
support each 32 cnMIPS64 v2 generalpurpose processing cores
and more than 85 applicationacceleration engines like:
Third generation Reg Ex Engine with Hyper Finite Automata
(HFA) for up to 2x 15Gbps pattern matching per blade
> 400Gbps DDR3 memory bandwidth per processor
A new LZS storage compression mode with compression/
decompression performance of up to 40Gbps per blade
High bandwidth, low-latency I/O and coprocessor networks
Hardware and software virtualization support with the ability to
partition into multiple virtual SOCs
Power Optimizer Technology with exible, dynamic control of
device core power consumption
NETWORKING CONNECTIVITY
The ATCA-9405 packet processing blade provides PICMG® 3.0
base interface connectivity in a dual star conguration using
standard GbE technology with redundant fabric channel support.

PACKET PROCESSING COMPLEX
The ATCA-9405 contains two Cavium OCTEON II CN 6880
multi-core MIPS64 packet processors. The MIPS64 processor
cores can be congured for up to 32-way SMP LINUX support or
can run Cavium Simple Executives and run fast path packet
processing software for time critical applications.

REMOTE MANAGEMENT
In addition to standard remote control features of Linux, including
SNMP, the ATCA-9405 provides an on-board independent terminal
server allowing remote network access to the serial consoles of all
main processors on the blade.
REAR TRANSITION MODULE
The RTM for the ATCA-9405 blade provides a total of 160 Gigabit
Ethernet I/O.
8x 10 Gigabit Ethernet via a SFP/SFP+ interface
2x 40 Gigabit Ethernet via a QSFP interface
RTMs with other Ethernet congurations or with mass storage
support can be made available on customer request.
MEZZANINES
A mezzanine module provides a cross connect data path
between the two Octeon II processors
Alternatively a TCAM mezzanine module can be made available
on request.
MULTICORE CPU (CAVIUM OCTEON II )
The packet processors are supported with a development software
environment (SDK) available from Cavium:
• Linux (Cavium SDK based or based on Wind River Linux 4) for
management operations
• Simple Executive applications running in cores not congured
for Linux
• Development tools and support from Cavium Networks
• Additional production quality development toolkits are available
from Cavium Networks for TCP/IP, IPSec, SSL, SSL-VPN, DPI,
and others
6WINDGate from 6WIND is also available on request.
