Big blue is expected to release tomorrow the Power NP 2G, which it will claim can deliver an astonishing two gigabits per second, and an even bigger number of Mpps – 5.6 million packets.
This chip is aimed at networking apps including security, voice apps, load balancing and encryption on a heap of hardware including routers, firewalls, servers and base stations, IBM is expected to say.
And IBM and Silicon & Software Systems (S3), will make an app reference board for the network processor, which will be sold by both companies.
