The 'knowledge processor' firm celebrates a half million shipments
November 14, 2005
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- NetLogic Microsystems, Inc. (Nasdaq:NETL), the leader in the design and development of knowledge-based processors, today announced it has now shipped 500,000 knowledge-based processors to date. The Company's knowledge-based processors enable high-performance decision-making for packet processing in a variety of advanced devices in the Enterprise, Metro, Access, Edge and Core networking markets.
"The shipment of 500,000 knowledge-based processors further validates our position as an industry-leading technology provider for enhanced network applications, and is a superb accomplishment of our talented and dedicated employees," said Ron Jankov, president and CEO of NetLogic Microsystems. "By enabling networking systems to perform up to 500 million decisions per second, our knowledge-based processors continue to meet the demands of 10 Gigabit Ethernet systems, and are well-positioned to meet the demands of future generations of complex network systems."
Key to NetLogic Microsystems' knowledge-based processor design is the use of parallel processing, deep pipelining and advanced power management techniques, which allow the devices to handle multiple tasks at higher throughput rates, while still maintaining the lowest possible system power. These advanced processes enable multiple decisions to be made simultaneously for a broad range of network-aware processing functions such as routing, quality of service (QoS), access control for security and billing, and voice/video packet forwarding, all of which significantly improve the performance of advanced Internet applications such as VoIP, video on demand (VoD), and streaming video and audio.
NetLogic Microsystems' knowledge-based processors are designed into systems offered by leading networking OEMs, including AlaxalA Networks Corporation, Alcatel, ARRIS Group Inc., Cisco Systems, Inc., Extreme Networks, Inc., Foundry Networks, Inc., Force10 Networks, Fujitsu Limited, Hitachi, Ltd., Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., and Juniper Networks Inc.. The knowledge-based processors have now penetrated virtually every point in the newly emerged Internet Protocol based triple-play communications network for voice, data and video. Their expanding and diversified end applications include Enterprise Switches and Routers, Telecom and IP infrastructure and Broadband Access devices such as DSLAM, CMTS, FTTP/FTTH and Ethernet Aggregation. Highlighting the numerous customer applications are Juniper Networks' E-Series edge routing platforms enabling the delivery of IPTV; Foundry Networks' BigIron RX-16 10Gbe switches powering the world's largest public Internet exchange; and Force10 Networks' TeraScale E-Series speed processing one billion packets per second assisting the work of human genome sequencing.
