Inphi and Innovium Announce Multiple Industry-leading 100G-400G Data Center Solutions
March 20 2018 - 8:00AM
Inphi Corporation (NYSE:IPHI), a leader in high-speed data movement
interconnects, today announced that Inphi and Innovium, leading
providers of switch silicon for data centers, partner to provide
customers multiple highly scalable industry-leading 100G-400G data
center solutions to meet their explosive bandwidth demand growth.
According to Cisco’s 2018 Global Cloud Index, there is a secular
trend towards large scale data centers, where the number of data
centers is expected to double by 2021 and traffic within such data
centers is expected to quadruple over that same period. Data center
customers are therefore looking at multiple ways to scale their
networks while driving operational efficiencies and investment
protection. They are trying to flatten their networks with larger
radix fixed switches to reduce tiers in the network, deploy higher
performance 12.8Tbps switches in the network to scale bandwidth,
increase power efficiency and adopt higher speed 200/400G
connectivity with lower cost/bit.
“Inphi has a range of proven PAM4 based power efficient DSP PHY
ICs, drivers and TIAs in its Polaris™ and Porrima™ family to enable
time to market next-gen 100GbE, 200GbE and 400GbE optics with
significant cost/bit advantage. Further, it leverages its PAM4
expertise to offer a very compelling gearbox solution in its Vega™
family to bridge connectivity between Innovium’s 12.8Tbps switch
based on PAM4 interfaces and the large install base of NRZ based
copper and optics ecosystem,” said Siddharth Sheth, SVP, Networking
Interconnects at Inphi.
The Innovium TERALYNX™ product line delivers the fastest and
most scalable Ethernet switch silicon family with leading
analytics, programmability, and power efficiency to meet the
critical requirements of large scale data center customers.
TERALYNXTM is the industry’s first switch that achieves 12.8Tbps
throughput, while delivering breakthrough telemetry, line-rate
programmability, largest on-chip buffers and best-in-class
low-latency, including robust cut-through, resulting in over 6x
advantage compared to alternatives.
Inphi and Innovium, two leaders in next-generation semiconductor
network infrastructure, now offer joint data center solutions to
meet the most demanding needs of data center customers. These
solutions include:
- Reference design for a 128 x 100GbE switch system which
features Innovium’s TERALYNX™ 12.8Tbps single-chip programmable
switch with PAM4 IO with Inphi’s Vega™ gearbox to offer the highest
radix fixed switch with 128 ports of 100GbE to connect using
existing NRZ based copper and optics ecosystem. This system
dramatically reduces complexity, power, latency and cost compared
to existing solutions that use multiple 3.2Tbps or 6.4Tbps switch
chips.
- A highly scalable comprehensive switch plus optics solution for
customers with compelling economics, power efficiency and
performance. Innovium TERALYNX™ enables customers to build
compelling switch configurations such as 128 ports of 100GbE, 64
ports of 200GbE or 32 ports of 400GbE. Inphi’s Polaris™ and
Porrima™ family provides optics module vendors PAM4 technology to
build highly power efficient, cost-effective and high performance
100GbE, 200GbE and 400GbE optics modules. Together, Innovium and
Inphi based products provide a comprehensive solution to data
center customers.
“We are excited to showcase the first joint solution with Inphi
in the form of a modular 4RU, 128 x 100GbE system at OCP 2018. It
replaces six to twelve existing switches for equivalent switching
capacity while reducing cost, power, latency, complexity and
simplifying operations,” said Rajiv Khemani, CEO & Co-founder
of Innovium.
