QLogic® FastLinQ™ OCP adapters are designed to bring advanced 10/25GbE server connectivity to enterprise,hyperscale cloud service provider and telco data centers
SAN JOSE, CA – Oct. 31,
2016 – Today, Cavium, Inc. (NASDAQ: CAVM), a leading provider of
semiconductor products that enable intelligent processing for enterprise and
cloud data centers, today unveiled QLogic FastLinQ adapters for Open Compute
Project (OCP) servers along with a rich suite of management software. The new
line of adapters allows Cavium to extend its reach to the growing number of OCP
servers being deployed at hyperscale and cloud service providers.
"New 25GbE technology is expected to displace 10GbE as the standard for server connectivity in the data center. By adding OCP adapters to their portfolio, Cavium expands its ability to address the fastest growing segment of the market, cloud service providers,” said Frank Berry, Senior Analyst, IT Brand Pulse.

“QLogic FastLinQ OCP
adapters are designed from the ground up for software defined data centers
where server connectivity has become critically important,” said Rajneesh Gaur,
general manager and vice president of Ethernet Adapter Group, Cavium. “QLogic FastLinQ
Ethernet adapters bring higher bandwidth, lower latency, and offload a long
list of networking protocols so that cloud service providers can preserve
server resources for workloads that generate revenue.”
Cavium QLogic FastLinQ QL34512 Adapters
Designed to accelerate Network Virtualization workloads, the FastLinQ QL34512 adapter delivers intelligent offloads for NVGRE, VxLAN and GENEVE tunneling protocols, providing an innovative solution delivering flexibility and cost savings for next generation enterprise, hyperscale CSP, tier 2/3 CSP, and telco data centers. The 10Gb version QL34152HOCU is available today and the 25Gb version scheduled for release in early 2017.
The FastLinQ OCP Ethernet Adapter provides the following key capabilities:

The FastLinQ OCP Ethernet Adapter provides the following key capabilities:
- Accelerates Server Performance: Boosts
network performance with full line-rate throughput across both ports,
optimizes infrastructure costs and increases virtual machine density by
leveraging in-built technologies like SR-IOV and Network Partitioning
(NPAR) that deliver acceleration and QoS for tenant workloads and
infrastructure traffic.
- Network Virtualization Offloads – Acceleration
for Network Virtualization by offloading protocol processing for VxLAN,
NVGRE, GRE and GENEVE, enabling customers to build and scale virtualized
networks without impacting network performance.
- Comprehensive Management – Single pane of
glass, web-based and distributed adapter management solution with
QConvergeConsole® (QCC) available across heterogeneous platforms and OSes,
automates and simplifies the deployment and orchestration of physical and
virtual infrastructure.
- OpenStack Integration: Cavium QLogic
technologies like the Plug-in for Mirantis® Fuel for automatic SR-IOV
configuration across multiple OpenStack nodes, QCC driven OpenStack
physical and logical topology maps and the ability to deliver QoS for
network functions enable hyperscale deployments with Cavium QLogic
Ethernet NICs to be accelerated with OpenStack.
- Industry’s
Most Comprehensive Network Adapter portfolio – Cavium as a
company offers the broadest set of Ethernet networking adapters -
FastLinQ™ Standard Ethernet Adapters, Converged Networking Adapters and
LiquidIO™ Intelligent NICs that cover the entire spectrum of customer
Ethernet connectivity and offload requirements.
