Introduction

This chapter provides an overview of the Netra CT server's basic hardware components and illustrates the different models available. Contact Sun Microsystems to get NEBS testing information for the Netra CT server.

The Netra CT server is a CompactPCI-based, NEBS (level 3)-certified, ETSI-compliant, rack mountable server. The Netra CT server is highly configurable. Within a Netra CT chassis, you can have one to two Netra CT 810 servers or one to four Netra CT 410 servers.

Note - You can have a mix of Netra CT 800 servers and Netra CT 400 servers. Refer to the documentation that came with those systems for more information.

The Netra CT server runs the standard Solaris OS, so that your Solaris applications can run on the server with no modifications.

The Netra CT server complies to the following specifications:

PICMG 2.0 R3.0 CompactPCI

PICMG 2.1 R2.0 CompactPCI Hot Swap

PICMG 2.5 R1.0 CompactPCI Computer Telephony/H.110

PICMG 2.9 R1.0 CompactPCI IPMI

PICMG 2.14 R1.0 CompactPCI MCNet
