IP8K Network Processor Family
For information on previous generations of Ubicom Network processors, please visit the Developer Portal.
The Ubicom IP8200 processor family enables a broad range of high-performance, low-cost networking applications for consumer, service-provider, and small-business network-infrastructure devices. Using an advanced, multithreaded architecture optimized for networking, the IP8200 processor family provides 2 Gbps of true system routing throughput. An advanced interface architecture combines best-in-class high-performance networking and peripheral interfaces such as USB3.0 (SuperSpeed) and PCI Express Gen-2 with a set of highly flexible software configurable interfaces, allowing the IP8200 network processor to seamlessly interface with a wide array of devices, including wired and wireless networking chipsets, mass storage devices, and many others.
The combination of high-performance networking, flexible interface capabilities, and on-chip hardware engines makes the Ubicom IP8200 family of network processors an ideal platform on which to build next-generation networking products that merge traditional networking requirements with emerging content-distribution and management capabilities.
