ANIC-80Ku

The ANIC-80Ku is a state of the art Dual 40GE PCI Express Gen 3
adapter designed for the most demanding Network Monitoring and Offload applications. The ANIC-80Ku features two QSFP+ Interfaces which support operations as a Dual 40GE or 8 x 10GE Adapter.

The ANIC-80Ku is based on Accolade’s next generation Advanced Packet Processor, implemented in a state of the art FPGA supported by a 8 GB high performance DDR4 Memory sub-system. Ideal for mission critical host CPU offload applications, the ANIC-80Ku is designed for full 80 Gbps lossless packet capture and sustained transfer of 55 Gbps across the PCIe bus.

Advanced host CPU offload functions include Hash based Classification Application Aware Flow Management, Traffic Management and Packet De-duplication. The ANIC-80Ku’s DMA Memory sub-system is designed for efficient burst transfers of data across the 8 lane Gen 3 PCI Express Bus. The ANIC-80Ku presents data in a programmable organization of Buffer Rings which enable load balancing and optimized use of Multi-Core CPU Resources.

Timing Sub-System
The timing sub-system in the ANIC-80Ku features an optional Temperature Controlled Crystal Oscillator (TCXO) as a stable high precision clock source. The ANIC-80Ku features a flexible timing sub-system which may be disciplined to NTP, IEEE-1588 and 1 PPS input from external GPS, GSM and CDMA timing sources.

Software Support
The ANIC-80Ku is available with a software development package and Linux Drivers and a comprehensive API that supports access to Hardware Health (PHY Status, Onboard Temperature, Voltages) and embedded functions such as Filtering, Classification, Host Buffer Management and Time Stamping Sub-system control/configuration.
