Napatech's reconfigurable computing solution for mobile network operators helps them fulfill their vision for a fully software-defined network, without compromise, by providing:

Hyperscale economics: The solution enables operators to deploy their 5G network, security and analytics applications as software-only solutions on open, standard, high-volume, low-cost server platforms, enhanced with FPGA-based SmartNIC software and hardware.
Hyperscale performance: The FPGA-based SmartNIC software and hardware deliver line rate networking performance for all traffic, across 1/10/25/40/50/100 gigabit Ethernet interfaces, while simultaneously offloading burdensome networking and security processing workloads from the server CPU. Combined, this returns valuable and limited CPU resources to the applications and services that need them.
Hyperscale innovation: Based on powerful, highly-programmable FPGAs, the solution guarantees hardware performance and the speed of software innovation, allowing network operators to both scale and evolve their standard computing platforms without compromise.

Jarrod J.S. Siket, CMO of Napatech, said: "With 5G on the horizon, mobile network operators face the challenge of meeting the CPU-intensive demands of mobile applications on standard platforms. In response, Napatech has developed the Reconfigurable Accelerated RAN solution, which allows network operators to alleviate CPU bottlenecks and increase performance by as much as 40x."
