MILPITAS, Calif., and
Taiwan, Nov. 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ACCELERATING
INNOVATION SUMMIT, LSI Corporation (NYSE: LSI) and Advantech
(TWSE: 2395.TW) today announced the availability of a new
Packetarium™ platform powered by the LSI® Axxia® Communication
Processor. The Packetarium NCP-2110 Network Appliance is designed
for caching gateways, enterprise routing, unified threat management
and radio network controllers, providing enhanced scalability and
integrating seamlessly into systems.
The NCP-2110 Packetarium system is a 1U rack-mountable design
that accommodates two front-loadable network interface cards with
one 10GbE Ethernet port each. The throughput capabilities of the
dual Axxia Communication Processor board allow OEMs to deliver
applications such as enhanced security and in-content aware
routing. The NCP-2110 has 20 Gbps of IPSEC throughput and 6 Gbps of
deep packet inspection performance for protocol analysis to extend
service and network integrity. Additionally, I/O expansion is made
possible via a standard PCIe x8 slot, making the Packetarium
NCP-2110 an extremely flexible platform for network equipment OEMs
requiring a broader range of connectivity options.
"The rapid growth of media traffic is putting extreme pressure
on today's wireless and enterprise networks," said Franz Wei, vice president, Advantech. "The Axxia
Communication Processor enables OEMs to design low-power,
next-generation 4G equipment that has the performance, network
intelligence and built-in security to handle this growth."
The Packetarium NCP-2110 leverages LSI's expertise in networking
silicon, allowing OEMs to deliver a robust networking acceleration
solution with increased intelligence and faster time to market. The
Axxia Communication Processor features four powerful PowerPC® cores
that deliver industry-proven packet classification, low latency,
advanced traffic management and greater deterministic performance.
The Axxia Communication Processor's Virtual Pipeline™ technology
delivers deterministic line rate performance for security
processing and deep packet inspection.
"In today's network environments, OEMs must offer solutions that
address scalable throughput requirements, provide differentiated
value and offer the flexibility for future evolution," said
Jim Anderson, senior vice president
and general manager, Networking Components Division, LSI. "Our
collaboration with Advantech leverages the latest features of the
LSI Axxia Communication Processor to deliver innovative solutions
that address the requirements of networking OEMs."
Prototypes of the Packetarium NCP-2110 will be available first
quarter, 2012.
