Sun Unified Network Platform
A comprehensive approach to telco development that includes Sun Netra rackmount and ATCA blade servers, plus virtualization, HA middleware, system management, Sun Netra Data Plane Suite, and the leading mission critical deployed OS – Solaris 10 - Sun Unified Network Platform (SUN-P) delivers a complete, development package for the Network Equipment Providers.
The SUN-P WiMAX ASN Gateway Reference Architecture, an in-depth demonstration of the benefits of the Sun Unified Network Platform in the development of a WiMAX solution running on Netra carrier grade servers, is the first in the series of proofs of concepts based on this radical consolidation architecture.

See how Sun brings breakthrough economics to the telecommunications infrastructure with open and scalable solutions for equipment and service providers.
Ultra-Fast Failover for Enhanced Availability
With Netra High Availability (HA) Suite software, key functions switch over in milliseconds, providing continuous service availability. Version 3.0 supports up to 64 mixed nodes, automatic fault diagnosis, automatic blade restart and provisioning, and group profiling. Netra HA Suite is SAF and CGTP standards-compliant.
Featuring the UltraSPARC T2 Processor
The UltraSPARC T2 processor is the industry's first "system on a chip," packing the most cores and threads of any general-purpose processor available, and integrating all the key functions of a server on a single chip: computing, networking, security, and input/output (I/O), plus tight integration with the Solaris operating system.
Customization and Factory-Testing
The Sun Customer Ready Systems Program integrates and tests Sun and third-party components for fast, low-risk deployment. Reorder easily with a single part number for your custom configuration.
