Rackmount
Ezchip NP4 network processor
- Two configurations offered - Low or High Capacity
- Broadcom BCM5684x Ethernet Trident+ switch
- Intel Core i7-620LE processor
Overview
The PARPRO N4R-200 is a 1U Switch appliance that fits into the standard 19” wide rack. Two configurations are offered further noted as “low capacity” and “high capacity” appliances. Both configurations feature one Broadcom BCM5684x Ethernet Trident+ switch and either one or two EZchip NP-4 network processors as population option on separate PCB’s. An Intel Core i7 620LE 2.0Ghz dual core processor provides management.
