Langon, France -- March 1, 2007 - TES Electronic Solutions, the global electronics design and manufacturing services company, today announces the general availability of the second in the TES program of CDM reference platforms.
The platform, CDM/RP-PQGR, is the first reference design to be based on the Freescale MPC8321E PowerQUICC(TM) II Pro processor and is designed as a core unit targeting Gateway and Router applications, in high-growth areas such as VoIP or VDSL2 for the telephone marketplace. Other applications include VPN for professional applications, and file and print servers. The platform can also support wireless capable applications as an add-on board utilising TES predeveloped wireless software drivers.
TES's Reference Platform program is a key component of the company's Custom Design and Manufacturing concept and includes continuous development of platforms for a wide range of applications. With CDM, TES offers a comprehensive partnership to companies, enabling them to build applications and start system integration, whilst TES takes care of hardware optimization for the product target market.
Key advantages of the CDM/RP-PQGR platform include its three extension connectors, 1xPCI, 2xminiPCI, TDM and the DSP header, increasing accessibility and versatility for users, and a 4-layer PCB that makes it easier to customize for manufacturing.
TES provides for the platform a software support package and a comprehensive baseline software package, including u-boot, Linux and drivers. TES also provides a rich set of applications, as examples or templates to help its customers' product development. Among these are software modules, providing the capability to enhance the following:
- Web Based management, rlogin, SNMP Monitoring, for the appliance remote management.
