A new dual-processor PowerPC PCI Mezzanine Card is aimed at telecomms infrastructure applications.
Mezzanine card lends Pentium power to telecomms
The hot-swappable KosaiPM gives telecomms OEMs an easy way to add processing power to AdvancedTCA or proprietary systems equipped with Advanced Mezzanine Card expansion bays.
For the first time on a PrPMC module, the variety of encryption capabilities will enable network equipment providers to rapidly develop and deploy a range of security applications.
Motorola's PowerPlus III architecture provides lower latency and improved memory bandwidth giving the PrPMC815 significantly better performance over traditional PCI-based network security implementations.
"The PrPMC815 is a technology boost that lets equipment manufacturers march up the performance curve with PowerPC CPUs", said Greg Novak, Product-Marketing Manager, Motorola Computer Group.
"For the first time, the MPC185 coprocessor resides on a high-speed bus to reduce latency when executing popular encryption algorithms such as Kasumi, DES, 30ES and AES for high-end applications such as 3G wireless and IP security".
A PrPMC is a small, board-level module with a low-profile processor and memory subsystem that uses an industry standard interface to plug on to an I/O baseboard.
With 32Mbyte of Flash memory, up to 512Mbyte onboard memory, Gigabit Ethernet I/O and a 66MHz PCIbus, the PrPMC815 targets proprietary telecomms architectures requiring a performance upgrade.
The PrPMC815 is available now with an estimated list price starting at Eur 1748, GBP 1070 or US $1545.
Samples of the PrPMC815 with the MPC185 are expected to be available in Q1 2003.
