Performance Technologies (PTIX) has announced the availability of NexusWare Portal. It’s a Web-based development and management tool that provides remote management and monitoring of the company's IPnexus MicroTCA platforms, such as the AMP5070.
The application-ready system is comprised of the company's 1U MicroTCA platform equipped with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor running NexusWare, the company's tightly integrated Linux OS and development environment.
The addition of NexusWare Portal to the NexusWare family of software products provides communication systems designers building on MicroTCA platforms, with enhanced system control, development capabilities, as well as serviceability of these solutions via a Web-based, graphical user interface (GUI).
"Today's communication equipment developers face significant challenges with platform integration, management, and application development. NexusWare Portal provides features to simplify these challenges in a cost-efficient manner," said Steve Wigent, product manager at Performance Technologies.
As communication system designers and integrators seek new ways to reduce design costs and quicken time-to-market for new products, Performance Technologies' integrated IPnexus MicroTCA platforms, combined with NexusWare Portal, provide a compelling advantage for these new initiatives, according to the company. Performance Tech says MicroTCA is gaining momentum as a preferred form factor for building next-generation solutions such as wireless and WiMAX equipment, radar access devices, VoIP gateways, communication servers, and other advanced communication systems in telecommunications as well as aerospace and defense applications.
