Ethernet IP Subsystem

The Ethernet IP Subsystem allows users to easily configure complex subsystems with a simple-to-use menu-driven user interface. This reduces the frustration of configuring multiple ports with different requirements. Customers can create example designs, simulate the configuration, and run these designs on supported development kits or their hardware.

Scalable architectures for high-bandwidth Ethernet line cards

As more consumers receive streaming video in various formats over the Internet, demand for bandwidth continues to increase. However, consumers watching streaming movies via their Xbox or Wii, or viewing YouTube on their computers, are not paying more for the additional gigabits they download each month watching these video feeds. This is one of many factors fueling the demand for higher bandwidth while yielding lower price per gigabit of bandwidth.
