EOL - PE2SFC293/A
Security Protocol Processor PCI Express Server Adapter / Freescale C293 Freescale® Based
This product has been discontinued – EOL Notification
Silicom protocol processor PCI-Express x4 security card based on the Freescale C293 Crypto CoProcessor.
The C293crypto coprocessor family initially consists of 3 high performance crypto coprocessors, optimized for public key operations. Public key algorithms such as RSA, Diffie Hellman, and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) are the basis of digital signature and key exchange protocols that make electronic commerce possible.
The C29x product line employs C291, 2 and 3 Crypto CoProcessors. The C293 offers high-performance support for a wide range of protocols, such as: IPSEC, SSL/TLS and IPsec bulk encryption.
C293 performs the following functions:
- Modular exponentiation
- Random number generation
- Hash processing
- Bulk encryption/decryption
- Executes protocol-specific complex instructions to support SSL/TLS or IPsec security protocols
The heart of the C293 is its 3 SEC – security engines. Each engine provides design flexibility by simultaneously supporting cryptographic operations and accelerating protocol functions.
The Silicom Protocol Processor PCI Express adapter is the ideal solution for high-end and mid-end virtual private networking (VPN), firewall appliances and SSL-based appliances.
