IP7100 Network Processor


For information on previous generations of Ubicom Network processors, please visit the Developer Portal.


The Ubicom IP7100 family of network processors enables a broad range of networking applications that require up to 1 Gbps of system level performance. The applications include consumer wireless routers, VPN security routers, SMB UTM routers, broadband triple-play gateways, cellular and WiMAX routers, NAS devices, and 802.11 access points. Based on the UBICOM32™ multithreaded architecture, the IP7100 network processors employ 12 thread-CPUs (tCPUs) and an advanced instruction set that has been optimized for networking applications. The unique architecture and on-chip hardware engines enable the processor to service various network processing tasks simultaneously without sacrificing line rate performance or Quality of Service (QoS). With core power consumption in the range of 0.5W for routing applications, the IP7100 family of network processors offers unbeatable performance at low power consumption and price.
