Two new F.A.S.T. solutions have been released from the connectivity series, namely the NCS2-IXM209 and the NCS2-IXM409. They come in Lanner’s standard slim type NCS2 form factor and are built with Intel XL-710-BM1 chipset in multi mode (NCS2-IXM409) and single mode (NCS2-IXM209).
Intel Ethernet Controller XL710 (codenamed Fortville) integrates advanced traffic steering capabilities with Intel DPDK, enabling higher packet processing for network appliances in applications such as DPI, IPS/IDS and WAN optimisation.
The NCS2-IXM209 and the NCS2-IXM409’s most notwithstanding features are their support for 10G LC fiber ports; whereas the NCS2-IXM409 offers 4 LC fibre ports, the NCS2-IXM209 offers 2, delivering socket direct, multi-host performance and lighting speed for almost all networking applications.
Also featured are Gen3 PCIe x8 golden finger and LAN LED.
