CASwell Announces Diverse CAR-5056 Versions Of High-End Network Server Switch

NEW TAIPEI CITY, Taiwan - Jan. 25, 2022 - PRLog -- CASwell, a leading manufacturer of innovative and high-performance SD-WAN (uCPE/vCPE) and network security systems, has announced the immediate and long-term future of its CAR-5056 network server switch during a presentation at Intel's Edge to Cloud Conference in Taiwan. This high-end dual Intel Xeon system with programmable Intel Barefoot Tofino Ethernet switch was announced last year and generated a lot of interest in different industries. Now CASwell is developing multiple versions of the CAR-5056 to meet rising demand.

The CASwell CAR-5056 is a top-of-the-line server switch for load balancing, network gateway and other typical applications by cloud and communication service providers or data centers and can be amplified by Intel Stratix 10 FPGA modules to raise performance and functionality levels even higher.

CASwell CAR-5056-GX

The currently available CASwell CAR-5056-GX is based on two 2nd Gen. Intel Xeon Scalable Processors (Cascade Lake). With these processors offering up to 28 cores, this platform delivers next-generation network capabilities thanks to its disruptive levels of compute performance coupled with memory and I/O advances designed for compute-hungry and latency-sensitive applications. The CAR-5056-GX offers data plane improbability with P4 on its Intel Barefoot Tofino 64Q Switch and can also host four Intel Stratix 10 GX FPGA modules to meet the high-performance demands of high-throughput systems. These devices are optimized for FPGA applications that require the highest transceiver bandwidth and core fabric performance.

Upgraded versions of this server will be available in different and extended configurations as CAR-5056-MX, -TF2 and -NX. More information here:
