The Network Processor module for the SLM-5650A provides advanced Internet Protocol features, including routing, switching and Quality of Service (QoS).
company, NASDAQ:EZCH), a fabless semiconductor company providing Ethernet network processors, today announced that Crossbeam Systems, the leading provider of next-generation security platforms for high-performance networks, is using EZchip's NP-2 network processors in the Network Processor Modules (NPM) of the Crossbeam X-Series Next Generation Security Platform product family.
The order specifies SLM-5650A Satellite Modems with the Network Processor module, which will integrate with the Vipersat Management System already deployed in this network for automated network and capacity management.
The Network Processor module for the SLM-5650A provides advanced Internet Protocol features, including routing, switching and Quality of Service (QoS).
Included in the order is Comtech EF Data's SLM-5650 Satellite Modem with a network processor module and Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) module.
The company's ATCA product roadmap includes delivery of fully-managed chassis platforms bundled with: -- High-performance Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor-based single board compute blades -- Intel(R) IXP2XXX-based network processor modules and blades for wire-speed packet processing, network security processing, and deep packet inspection -- E1/T1/OC-3 modules for communication interfaces -- Switch modules to support Gigabit Ethernet on base and fabric backplanes -- Storage blades This product set will be followed by additional media and protocol accelerator processing modules for deployment into advanced applications in the wireline and wireless network infrastructure markets.
The new Interphase product family of Network Processor Modules achieves unparalleled levels of performance in packetized voice ATM Adaptation Layer 2 (AAL2) and IP protocol processing and is compatible with Interphase's existing line of PCI Telecom Mezzanine Cards (PTMC) for a variety of interfaces including channelized T1/E1, T3/E3, OC-3/STM-1 and OC-12/STM-4.
