We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Packet processor",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Gigabit switches enable VME development from
GE Fanuc Embedded Systems, which we summarised at the time by saying "The rugged GBX24 is designed to meet the demanding requirements of network switching in harsh military/aerospace environments".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Packet processing blade uses Octeon multicore from
GE Fanuc Embedded Systems: "The AT2-5800 blade is designed to enable high-availability systems for telco-grade next-generation network applications".
In November 2007, we covered the news from GE Fanuc Embedded Systems
concerning its Telum NPA-58x4
- take a look at Mezzanine secures high-speed communications
which says: "Intelligent high-performance four-port Gigabit Ethernet IP packet processor AdvancedMC enables secure high-speed connectivity and complex security processing".
Take a look also at the news release from IDT, Search engine helps in packet processor evaluation,
as well as Processors are dedicated to mobile WiMAX from Wintegra,
and AMC module hosts intelligent network processor from GE Fanuc Embedded Systems.
