Semiconductors and software designer LSI has unveiled Axxia network accelerator AXP3420 card to accelerate critical networking tasks in enterprise and cloud data centres.
The AXP3420 card plugs into a standard PCIe slot to accelerate network functions and offloads networking functions from the host processor to improve performance and lower power consumption.
The LSI AXP3420 accelerator card offers enhanced network acceleration in servers and x86-based networking equipment, as well as rapid software development, including production-ready software for application recognition, security and other real-world networking functions.
The new release offloads complex networking tasks to deliver predictable network performance for datacentres. It also offers software compatibility with the entire range of Axxia communication processors and network accelerator cards.
AXP3420 card features an Axxia processor with hardware accelerators that improve performance for packet inspection, traffic management and other critical networking functions. It is shipped with a set of application development kits.
Customers can now customise the accelerator card to meet their needs for network control, monitoring, application recognition, security and virtual private networks.
The Axxia development kit also will allow manufacturers to customise the accelerator card for specific applications.
