Product Brief
OVERVIEW
The new OCTEON Plus XL family of intelligent, Gigabit Ethernet network interface cards (NICs) targets Secure Network Services
and compression acceleration in security, storage and networking appliances with up to 6Gbps performance.
The OCTEON Plus XL family includes PCIe NIC, with in-line hardware o oad for TCP, compression/decompression, Security
(SSL/IPsec, SRTP, Data-at-rest), intrusion prevention and anti-virus applications – to deliver the most advanced, multi-function
acceleration. Optional C/C++ programmability of the OCTEON Plus CN57XX multi-core MIPS64 processor on the card allows
vendors to easily add proprietary featur
r.
