Napatech, Xilinx Announce 10Gb
Programmable Ethernet Adapter
Napatech and Xilinx Inc announced the immediate availability of the
industry's
first 10 Gbps Programmable Ethernet Adapter. The 10 Gigabit NT10F Programmable
Ethernet Adapter is the most powerful and advanced Network Interface Card
available on the market today, allowing Ethernet connectivity at 10 Gbps. The
adapter supports custom solutions through Xilinx Virtex-II Pro FPGAs and
onboard processors.
Custom features like packet tracing, packet filtering, data compression,
protocol offload and encryption/ ecryption algorithms can be added to the
adapter hardware and processed at 10 Gbps line speeds. The NT10F Ethernet
Adapter, with industry standard PCI/PCI-X interface, delivers the highest
available throughput from its 10G optical interface.
"Napatech's solution is an important validation and demonstration of the
packet processing power of our Virtex-II Pro FPGAs," said Robert Bielby,
senior director of Strategic Solutions Marketing at Xilinx. "The NT10F is a
very powerful platform for developing 10G Ethernet acceleration solutions like
data compression, encryption/decryption and protocol offload."
"With the NT10F our customers will be able to create custom packet and data
processing solutions running at 10G speeds," said Thomas Jorgensen, vice
president of Sales at Napatech. "Our NT10F has created a high level of
customer interest and we already have the first customer sales. The Virtex II
PRO FPGA allows our customers to continuously add features and updates to
their solutions in the field."
