Marvell's 5nm OCTEON® 10 DPU for Best-in-Class Performance
and Energy Efficiency
ESPOO, Finland and SANTA
CLARA, Calif., Nov. 30,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Marvell Technology, Inc.
(NASDAQ: MRVL), a leader in data infrastructure semiconductor
solutions, today announced an extension of its collaboration with
Nokia that further advances Nokia's 5G "Powered by ReefShark"
chipset portfolio. The companies have worked closely on the new
OCTEON 10 Data Processing Unit (DPU), which augments the ReefShark
family with best-in-class 5G transport built on cutting-edge 5nm
processor and hardware acceleration technology. The jointly
developed solution equips mobile network operators with the ability
to rapidly evolve their networks and deliver innovative new 5G
services at high performance and capacity with ultra-low latency
and energy efficiency.
To manage the dramatic increase in data traffic and performance
demands of 5G's new service-based architecture, mobile network
operators increasingly require high-performance, highly efficient
processors to meet customer expectations and scale rapidly and
while keeping costs and energy consumption in check. By
incorporating Marvell's industry-leading DPU technology, including
the industry's first 5nm Arm® Neoverse N2 multi-core solution,
Nokia has transformed its "Powered by ReefShark" chipset portfolio
into the most advanced 5G radio access and transport processing
platform available.
Ari Kynaslahti, Vice President, CTO, Head of Strategy and
Technology Mobile Networks at Nokia, said: "The extension of our
strategic partnership with Marvell underscores Nokia's commitment
to support mobile network operators with the industry's most
advanced technology for their 5G radio access networks. The
combination of our technology and market leadership, and Marvell's
latest processor and silicon optimization, is rapidly advancing 5G
network performance, enabling our customers to scale innovative new
services with superior data throughput and lower energy
consumption."
Will Chu, Senior Vice President,
Processors Business Group at Marvell, said: "Marvell is thrilled to
continue working in close collaboration with Nokia to advance the
ReefShark chipset by incorporating our latest OCTEON DPU technology
– the world's first 5nm transport processing solution for 5G RAN.
