Diversified Technology, Inc. Becomes Sole Provider of Intel ATCA CPU Blade
MPCBL0030 -- AdvancedTCA Single Board Computer
RIDGELAND, Miss.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Diversified Technology, Inc. (DTI) and Intel announced today an agreement to allow for continued sales of Intel's MPCBL0030 (Thermopolis) CPU Blade by transitioning the product and all existing inventory to DTI. The MPCBL0030 board was designed and manufactured by DTI exclusively for Intel, and the board was not a part of Intel's recent divestiture of its modular communications platforms business. The agreement allows DTI to continue to build the product for new and existing users, as well as to design additional follow-on products. In the agreement, DTI will also take on support and warranty services for all MPCBL0030 products sold by Intel.
"DTI and Intel's agreement allows our team to provide current and future customers of the blade with continued availability and support. DTI already has an intimate knowledge base for the board, since we originally designed and manufactured it for Intel. Making this transition now will allow customers to continue to deploy the board successfully," stated Joe McDevitt, DTI's VP of Technical Marketing.
"DTI was instrumental in the development of the original MPCBL0030 product, and this agreement will allow Intel to continue to serve the telecommunications market segment with market-leading processors and other silicon components, while providing MPCBL0030 customers with a continuing support model," stated Intel's Doug Davis, vice president, and general manager of the Embedded and Communications Group.
