To provide an ideal platform for the next-generation of security applications.

NITROX III products are software compatible with the Cavium NITROX PX and NITROX Lite family of security processors.

NITROX III processors are highly scaleable and deliver performance ranging from 5 Gbps to 40 Gbps for full IPsec protocol or SSL offload, 1024bit exponent RSA from 35K to 200K RSA operations per second, and 2048bit exponent RSA up to 35K RSA operations per second enabling an optimal solution for applications such as:

• Application Delivery Controller (ADC)
• WAN Optimization
• Cloud Computing
• Server Offload - Web, Mail, Search
• Integrated VPN/Firewall appliances
• UTM Gateway, Routers
• Load Balancers/L4+ Switches
• Wireless LAN and WAN equipment
• Security Telco gateways
• SAN appliances
• 3G & 4G/LTE infrastructure equipment

For applications requiring 2.5 Gbps or below see our software compatible NITROX PX family.
