Introduction

With the expanding Internet, all levels of the network must become faster. This requires high-speed packet searches, which are essential for routing, but also necessary for higher-level functions such as Quality of Service (QoS) support and access control. To meet this need, IDT has developed network search engines that accelerate packet processing at OC-192 data rates and beyond.

Device Description

The 18M NSE with Dual LA-1 interface is intended to work with NPUs having a Look Aside Interface. Multiple devices including the 18M Dual LA-1 NSE can be connected to the same LA-1 interface. Each 18M Dual LA-1 NSE device may be optionally point-to-point expanded up to eight NSE devices.
