RMI’s XLR Processor Powers the Evolved DPI Solution from Procera Networks
to Achieve 80Gbps Throughput
Procera Networks High Performance PacketLogic PL10000 Utilizes RMI’s Multi-Core,
Multi-Threaded XLR® Processing Engine
Cupertino, CA, July 16, 2008 — RMI Corporation, a leading supplier of multi-core,
multi-threaded processors for communications and media rich applications, and Procera
Networks (AMEX: PKT), a developer of Evolved Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) solutions
providing the most accurate traffic awareness, control and protection for complex
networks, today announced that Procera Networks has selected the RMI® Multi-core
Multi-threaded XLR Processor™ for its PacketLogic PL10000, a DPI appliance with up
to 80Gbps of throughput.
PacketLogic PL10000 is purpose-built with Tier-1 broadband deployments in mind. With
its introduction, service providers now have an incredibly accurate platform that gives
them the business intelligence, real-time network visibility and control required to
successfully roll out new revenue-generating services and optimize network
performance to support millions of subscribers. PacketLogic PL10000 was designed as
a carrier-grade platform to provide the scalability, reliability and flexibility needed to meet
network requirements for today and tomorrow. It has four times the capacity of its
nearest competitor and can be deployed anywhere in the network. PacketLogic PL10000
is an integrated chassis based on industry standard AdvancedTCA®, and ships with a
new version of PacketLogic's firmware. This approach reduces potential problems for the
service provider and enables seamless upgrades and integration.
“RMI was our first and leading choice when designing the PacketLogic PL10000,” said
Alexander Haväng, chief technical officer, Procera Networks. “The XLR Processor is
known for its capabilities and performance in the security and infrastructure markets. For
the throughput requirements we had, the XLR732 met and exceeded the expectations
and allowed us to generate up to 80Gbps of throughput which enables us to be
recognized as the highest-performing DPI platform in the industry.”
The PacketLogic PL10000 from Procera utilizes the high-performance, highly integrated
XLR732 Processor from RMI, an 8-core, 32-threaded device. The XLR732 processor
consists of an innovative set of XLR™ cores enabling up to 32 threads, or virtual CPUs
(vCPUs™), in a single chip. The XLR’s enhanced MIPS64® compatible cores implement
fine-grained, 4-way multithreading combined with a multi-level hierarchy of caches,
autonomous accelerators, and point-to-point interconnects for data and message
transfers. The interconnects’ full-speed operation augment application scalability and
closely integrate the high performance main memory controllers, level-2 caches, 10Gbps
accelerated security operations, and accelerated networking interfaces to deliver a
processing solution running at frequencies of 800MHz – 1.2GHz optimized for maximum
throughput and workload efficiency.
“As the leader in multi-core multi-threaded communication processors we are intensely
focused on enabling the next generation broadband infrastructure market.” said Behrooz
Abdi, chief executive officer, RMI. “Procera Networks has achieved a tremendous
milestone with their PacketLogic PL10000 product and we are thrilled to have a part in
delivering this high performance Evolved DPI solution”
