Lanner Electronics has recently Introduced a high performance network security appliance, NCA-6520 powered with dual 3rd Gen Intel Xeon scalable processor.
The 2U 19” rackmount network security appliance features powerful networking processing capability and higher throughput. The integrated 100Gbps Intel QuickAssist technology is a hardware technology that accelerates critical workloads such as data compression and cryptography across server, storage and network applications. In addition, Intel Software Guard Extensions (Intel SGX) offers hardware-based memory encryption for isolating specific application code and data in memory, allowing NIC module insertion/extraction with almost no performance impact.
The NCA-6520 is equipped with 8 NIC module slots, capable of delivering almost any networking interface and I/O configuration. The purpose-built modular kits developed to optimize for a broad selection of expansion requirement, including 1/10/25/40/100G copper/fiber interface, NVMe SSD storage, 4K video transcoding and WiFi/LTE connectivity. The upper layer of NCA-6520 NIC modules slots also support hot-swappable PCIe functionality.
