AdvancedTCA Summit Europe - Spring 2009
The AdvancedTCA/MicroTCA Summit brings attendees practical, up-to-date information on the state of the Telecommunications Computing Architecture, AdvancedTCA and MicroTCA, the emerging standard platforms for communications equipment.
The technology is strategic to many users and the summit gives the European organizations a chance to get a wider exposure to the technology and vendors. It is intended as a meeting point between the vendor eco-system and users/ potential users of Advanced TCA/MicroTCA products.
Summit theme: Leading the Way to New Standards-based Solutions and includes: creating standard-based telecom equipment, reducing equipment cost and development time, making equipment more flexible and more maintainable.

“AdvancedTCA and MicroTCA are far more than just the most exciting things to happen in the board business since VME. They are, in fact, the most important developments ever. For the first time, we have a complete ecosystem of customers and vendors working together to specify, implement, and apply the new technologies.”
