Description
With Cavium OCTEON II processors, front-end processing of the Layer 2 protocols can reside on the Pkt2-PCIe or Pkt2-AMC, providing hardware acceleration of SCTP, M2PA, DPI, and IPsec. High Availability and Management can then run on the host processor, or in the case of ATCA, the Adax PacketRunner2 (APR2). With these products Adax meet today’s challenges of scalability, cost-effectiveness and high availability with solutions for LTE, 3G, and Legacy networks and the interworking between them.
The Adax Advantage
Utilizing the embedded services of the industry leading Cavium Octeon II family of multi-core processors, the Adax PacketRunner2 and Pkt2-AMC boards combine features and performance. The Cavium multicore MIPS64 processors are designed specifically for networking,security, packet filtering and Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and on the Adax boards provide a high performance solution for those demanding telecom applications. With Cavium OCTEON II processors, front-end processing of the Layer 2 protocols can reside on the Pkt2-AMCs providing hardware acceleration of SCTP, M2PA, DPI, and IPsec and efficient separation and processing of both control and data plane flows.
The APR2 makes the most of chip-based intelligence by including an on-board Marvell switch for 10GbE data plane transfer between the Pkt2-AMCs and efficient 1GbE, 10GbE and 40GbE external connections. Scalability and Flexibility are what make Adax unique. The depth and breadth of the Adax product range provides the flexibility to configure options that meet individual customer requirements by adding and removing cards as required, for example being able to add the Cavium based Adax Pkt2-AMC modules to the APR2 blade for extra processing power rather than having to add a complete processor blade provides a highly-scalable and cost-effective solution in a small footprint.
