The addition of an integrated hardware accelerated Internet protocol security engine to the RC32365 Interprise integrated communications processor results boosts its frequency performance by 20%

Integrated Device Technology has enhanced its RC32365 Interprise integrated communications processor with an integrated hardware accelerated Internet Protocol security (IPsec) engine, resulting in a 20% frequency improvement over the original speed. In addition, IDT has released significant optimisations of its software support for the processor.

The RC32365 processor now achieves an overall frequency of up to 180MHz with 70Mbit/s of IPsec throughput, better enabling the device to satisfy the growing need for performance in the small and medium enterprise (SME), small office/home office (SOHO), residential gateway and wireless access markets by enabling greater system throughout and IPsec acceleration.

In addition, the company announced that the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), has certified the IDT processor's cryptographic algorithms per the guidelines of the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS).

The security engine on the RC32365 processor and supported algorithms, including DES, 3DES and the advanced encryption standard (AES), are certified as compliant with highly stringent government standards, making it a viable solution for related applications.

"To develop our VPN-based gateway appliance, it was vital to find a processor that met our system cost, scalability and time-to-market goals while allowing the designers access to a comprehensive suite of software development tools and local technical support", said Bernard Jen, Head of Research and Development at Unication, a Taiwan-based manufacturer of communications products including home gateways and wireless LAN equipment.

"The IDT RC32365 integrated communications processor meets these needs and delivers an optimal combination of security functionality and performance to aid in the development of best-in-class wireless solutions".
