9M Network Search Engine (NSE) with Dual LA-1 Interface (QDR™ II Interface Compliant) Datasheet Brief IDT75K62234 Introduction Device Description With the expanding Internet, all levels of the network must become faster. This requires high-speed packet searches, which are essential for routing, but also necessary for higher-level functions such as Quality of Service (QoS) support and access control. To meet this need, IDT has developed network search engines that accelerate packet processing at OC-192 data rates and beyond. The 9M NSE with Dual LA-1 interface is intended to work with NPUs having a Look Aside Interface. Multiple devices including the 9M Dual LA-1 NSE can be connected to the same LA-1 interface. Each 9M Dual LA-1 NSE device may be optionally multi-drop cascaded up to four NSE devices.
