ADLINK releases network processor platform 40G ATCA blade server for efficient network packet processing
The industry leader in embedded computer products and intelligent computer application platforms (ApplicaTIon Ready Intelligent Platforms)-ADLINK released its first blade server with NPU (Network Processing Unit)-aTCA-N700. aTCA-N700 can provide dual 32-core processors, 320G data exchange bandwidth for efficient packet and network security processing, and can be used to build high-end data processing, high data throughput, rich wireless networks and other telecommunications network systems, such as wireless networks Platform (AP) controller, network security platform, LTE broadband communication gateway, media server, etc. Gao Fuyao, director of ADLINK ’s Embedded Computing Products Division, said: “ADLINK introduces aTCA-N700, aTCA blade server using NPU. Its high-performance network packet specifications can be applied to high-speed throughput data processing and can be used at the same time. Respond to more threads, meet market needs and assist customers in deploying a more efficient ATCA network and communication platform. " This new blade server complies with the PICMG 3.0 R.3.0 baseboard specification and the PICMG 3.1 R2.0 Ethernet network specification. It uses the Cavium OCTEON II CN6880 NPU and contains two cnMIPS64 V2 processors clocked at 1.2 GHz, each with 32 Core, providing a total of 64 cores of parallel processing capabilities, is the best platform architecture for deep packet inspection (DPI), network security, and flow control applications. The memory configuration is 8-slot VLP REG / ECC DDR3-1066 memory, which supports data temporary storage and error detection and correction functions up to 128GB, and a total data exchange bandwidth of 320Gbps. It also supports "ternary content addressable memory" (TCAM) to speed up the search of packet classification rules. The aTCA-N700 is also equipped with a local management function, a 4-core Freescale QorIQ P2041 processor clocked at 1.2GHz, which reduces the burden of the Cavium processor and thus can focus on high-speed packet processing. Each group of NPU is equipped with NOR flash memory and NAND flash memory as a redundant design when the system is turned on or the operating system cannot be started. The hardware redundancy design of the local management processor includes two sets of EEROM to load the U-boot boot program, and two sets of solid state drives to start the operating system to ensure the storage and application of the image. For the Ethernet network, a high-performance BCM 56842 switching chip is used to connect the Cavium processor, backplane, and I / O, providing up to 320Gbps of data switching bandwidth, while also providing rich I / O interfaces. In terms of data transmission interface, aTCA-N700 is equipped with two 40G Fabric Interface high-speed transmission channels in addition to two basic Ethernet interfaces to take into account the speed and flexibility of data exchange. In addition, the flexible rear trace board design also provides the highest I / O density and a transmission interface with a total bandwidth of 160/120 Gbps. ADLINK also provides ApplicaTIon Ready Intelligent Platform (ARIP) solutions to help customers accelerate the time to market of their products, such as wireless network controller (Wi-Fi AC), deep packet inspection platform (DPI Platform), etc. aTCA-N700 is also suitable for a variety of applications, such as: radio network controllers (IP radio network controllers), LTE broadband mobile network gateways (LTE gateways), network security gateways (security gateways), high density data media servers (high density media servers), IPTV infrastructure components (eg edge routers, media switches, media switches), WiMax ASN gateways, etc. For more ADLINK aTCA products, please click: http: //AdvancedTCA/index.php About Linghua ADLINK is committed to the improvement and innovation of measurement, automation and computer communication technology, providing solutions to global network telecommunications, intelligent transportation and electronics manufacturing customers.
