Stratus^® Continuum^® Series 400 Central Office servers are designed with all the Continuous Processing^® features and performance required to meet the demands of traditional and next-generation telecommunications solutions. Engineered to meet stringent power, performance, and safety specifications for installation in central offices worldwide, the Continuum Series 400-CO server is the ideal platform for a broad range of telecom applications in mobile, landline, circuit, packet, and converged networks.

See Stratus^® Continuum^® 400 Systems for information about fault-tolerant enterprise servers

Continuum Series 400-CO systems combine HP^® PA-RISC^® symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) technology, the HP-UX^® operating system, and Stratus Technologies' proven fault-tolerant, pair-and-spare architecture in servers that deliver 99.999% uptime right out of the box. (See Uptime MeterSM - Stratus Continuum Family for details.)

Every Series 400-CO server uses replicated, fault-tolerant hardware to eliminate single points of failure and protect data integrity. Major components - CPUs, memory boards, input/output controllers, buses, power supplies, and fans - are duplexed and operate in lockstep. In the event of failure, the paired component continues normal operation.

This use of Stratus Continuous Processing technology eliminates the operational complexity and high costs inherent in high-availability alternatives. Our hardware-based fault tolerance requires no failover scripting, repeated test procedures, or application modifications to ensure applications availability or smooth integration of systems into telecom environments.

The robust reliability and availability of Continuum Series 400-CO servers is complemented by our industry-leading serviceability. Self-checking Continuum hardware and onboard diagnostics detect, isolate, and report potential problems, before they affect server operation, with an automatic call home through Stratus' secure Remote Service Network (RSN).

Built into every Continuum system, RSN capabilities allow Stratus' Customer Assistance Center support personnel to access, investigate, and correct problems. Continuum support customers receive our premium-level service plan that includes 24 x 7 support, remote diagnostics, personalized account management, and around-the-clock access to senior service engineers.

Continuum 400-CO servers work seamlessly with the Stratus Intelligent Network Applications Platform (SINAP™ ) family, widely deployed development and runtime software for applications in SS7, IP, and converged networks. Together these carrier-grade platforms bring you proven, affordable reliability, rapid time to market for new voice and data services, and lower development and operational costs.
