Portwell extends range of network appliance platforms

Posted 20 October 2020

Portwell has announced new product lines in its Advanced Network Solutions (ANS) family of computing platforms for software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) appliances.

The new products offer the high throughput and connectivity options required to support the demanding requirements of 5G cellular and Wi-Fi 6 applications.

Both the ANS-2141/42 and the ANS-8A64P are compact rack-mount units – two can fit side-by-side in a 1U slot.

The new IPC platforms, which are based on an Intel Atom processor, are backed by software support to ease implementation in SD-WAN system designs, including DPDK, Open vSwitch and a PoE+ API. The software includes sample code for a software switch.

The ANS-2141 is based on the Apollo Lake x5-E3940 version of the Intel Atom processor with four cores, and the ANS-2142 on the x5-E3930 with two cores.

The new ANS-8A64P is a computing platform for SD-WAN appliances based on the Intel Atom Denverton (C3000 series) processor featuring four or eight cores
