Lanner and RMI to Offer Next Generation Security Platforms Capitalizing on the XLP Processors Unmatched Throughput Performance
Cupertino, California – May 19, 2009 -- At Interop 2009, Lanner Electronics Inc, a premier designer and manufacturer of networking communication platforms, today announced its plans to support RMI’s newest generation Multi-core processor family, the XLP® Processor. RMI Corporation, a leading provider of high-performance processors for communication and media rich applications, announced earlier today, the industry’s highest performing processor core and Multi-core processor family driving unmatched system and performance scalability.
The superscalar XLP Processor® family drives performance levels at greater than 2.0 GHz and offers a 3x performance per watt improvement over previous generation processors. This latest offering will bring about the most advanced and most highly integrated multi-core processor in the industry while maintaining the innovative multi-threading capabilities of RMI’s existing processor families. The XLP Processor, just as the XLR Processor, will be utilized in future security platforms, similar to the
Lanner MR-960, that will include integrated security (firewall, VPN, anti-virus, intrusion detection and prevention), web services, virtualized storage, load balancing, server offload and intelligent routing and switching systems.
“Lanner is thankful to be included in the launch of the XLP Processor family from RMI,” said James Yang, CEO, Lanner Electronics, Inc. “We look forward to offering next generation products that will take advantage of the high levels of throughput that the XLP will bring our joint customers developing advanced network security applications.”
The XLP Processor is targeted at expanding the overall opportunity for RMI’s Multi-core product offerings and enables a broad set of applications specific features for customer use in security appliances, L4-L7 switching, storage networking, 3G/4G wireless, small business networks, as well as several new untapped markets. Early development work with the world’s leading storage, networking, telecom, wireless and enterprise customers has been in place for over 2 years.
