™-based nPcore™ technology

The nP3450 is a successor to AMCC’s highly-adopted

nP3400 Network Processor with Integrated Traffic

Manager device. The nP3450 has identical interfaces to the nP3400, but with twice the performance.

The nP3450 is implemented using industry leading nP

devices) with enhanced network processing and traffic management.

The increased performance, efficiency, headroom, flexibility, and integration afforded by this proven

technology enables customers to deliver more features at lower cost, power, and size than ever before.

High-density Ethernet interfaces, combined with superior programmability, provide the best

combination for providing value-added Ethernet Services for Wireline/WiFi Access and Metro Ethernet

Networks.

Industry Leading Performance and

Flexibility

The nP3450 network processing unit consists of

two low-power network processing nPcores™

that are based on proven nP

These nPcores, along with specialized Network

Service Accelerators such as Policy Engine,

Special Purpose Policing Unit, Packet Transform

Engine, and Statistics Engine, offer unparalleled

performance at line rate.

The superior programmability and flexibility of

these cores enable flexible support for existing

and future networking protocols. All of the line

interfaces on this device are standards-

compliant maximizing inter-operability and

flexibility.

Value Added Services

The traffic management unit of the nP3450 is

based on the proven Per-Stream Queuing™ and

Scheduling architecture allowing guaranteed

and measurable services. The nP3450 traffic

manager’s four classes of service (CoS) enable

layered services. The enhanced multicast

scheme and programmable memory

management provide increased flexibility in

traffic management.

Software Compatibility

With its “run-to-completion” single-image

programming model and nPkernel software

infrastructure, the nP3450 is software-

compatible with the nP

provides enormous leverage for customers in

reusing software from prior generations of

design and achieving quick time-to-market.
