Description
Sun 5383-02 SPARCengine CPU Board CompactPCI 6U cPCI 128MB RAM Ethernet
The Sun 5383-02 is a 6U CompactPCI (cPCI) single-board computer built around Sun Microsystems' SPARCengine architecture. It integrates a SPARC processor, onboard Ethernet, a serial COM port, and a Celestica 128MB mezzanine RAM module (p/n 40829C) onto a single 6U cPCI card. The front panel provides a 7-segment STATUS display and LED indicators for ALARM, READY, RESET, and ABORT states. Assembled in Canada, with hardware revision REV 50.

Applications
The SPARCengine platform was Sun Microsystems' line of embedded CompactPCI single-board computers aimed at telecommunications, networking infrastructure, and industrial control applications that required the reliability of the SPARC architecture in a standardized carrier-grade form factor. The 6U CompactPCI standard, which gained broad adoption in the late 1990s and early 2000s, allowed these processor boards to slot into ruggedized, hot-swap-capable cPCI chassis used in telecom central office equipment, network access servers, and industrial automation systems. SPARCengine boards running Solaris or real-time operating systems were commonly deployed in applications demanding high availability and long operational lifespans — carrier switching platforms, NEBS-compliant telecom gear, and embedded control systems. Legacy SPARCengine boards like the 5383-02 remain in demand for maintaining and extending the life of installed CompactPCI-based systems still operating in the field.
This Sun 5383-02 SPARCengine CompactPCI CPU processor board has been inspected and is in good condition. It was pulled from a working environment where it was in active use and functional. The board and front panel show normal handling wear consistent with rack-mounted service use. The Celestica 128MB mezzanine RAM module (p/n 40829C) is installed and present. Front-panel indicators, Ethernet port, and COM connector all appear intact. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
