Touted as the world's fastest integrated Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) processor chip for broadband networks, the new BCM5805 (UBSEC+) chip provides strong Internet security at speeds exceeding 300 Mbps. It implements all the relevant standards-compliant protocols, including IPSec, Internet Key Exchange (IKE), Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS), at 310 Mbps. In typical system applications, the UBSEC+ replaces several high-performance processors or multiple specialized cryptographic ASICs.
Ideal for IP security and e-commerce applications, the BCM5805 can be designed into routers, switches, VPN appliances, remote access equipment, access concentrators, firewalls, electronic-commerce servers and gateways. The BCM5805 (UBSEC+) is priced at $100 each/1,000 and is packaged in a 144-pin LQFP.
