32-Port Programmable Switch
The Programmable Switch is a high port-density, completely FPGA-based network switch, built for special purpose switching, bridging, and monitoring applications. The Programmable Switch is based on the next generation of New Wave DV’s programmable networking hardware.
The Programmable Switch is powered by the latest Xilinx Virtex UltraScale+ FPGA technology. Purpose-built for processing network data in real time, the Programmable Switch has been optimized to provide the lowest possible latency and the highest possible performance. This makes it ideal for executing sophisticated algorithms, processing streaming data, and running a wide range of functions as close as possible to the network.
