Widely surpassing its network search engine cousins, the IDT 75S10000A delivers an unprecedented search rate of one billion searches per second -- an order of magnitude A change in quantity or volume as measured by the decimal point. For example, from tens to hundreds is one order of magnitude. Tens to thousands is two orders of magnitude; tens to millions is three orders of magnitude, etc. greater performance than previous generation solutions -- facilitating Bay's support of enhanced triple play services and future 100G Ethernet networks. The IDT network search accelerator is designed to cost-effectively enable high-performance, low-power packet processing for Bay Microsystems' fully-programmable 40G line-rate network processor and traffic manager. The first "fourth generation" network search solution commercially available, it enables enterprise, and carrier switch and router developers to create highly differentiated systems by accelerating and offloading critical search functions. In turn, this provides more headroom for value-added services, such as variable QoS for video, voice, data and security, access control lists, secure data transactions, and billing applications. The companies have been engaged since the initial specification phases of their respective devices in order to ensure maximum performance and seamless interoperability of the combined solution.

DDR - Double Data Rate Random Access Memory ) interface, which maximizes the available search bandwidth, coupled with a new and highly unique architecture optimized for complex IPv6 policy lookups. In response to strict system-level availability and uptime requirements from leading service providers, the IDT 75S10000A implements enhanced error detection and correction (algorithm, storage) error detection and correction - (EDAC, or "error checking and correction", ECC) A collection of methods to detect errors in transmitted or stored data and to correct them. This is done in many ways, all of them involving some form of coding. to ensure the data integrity of the integrated TCAM (TeleCommunications Access Method) IBM communications software widely used to transfer data between mainframes and 3270 terminals.

"When evaluating network search solutions, IDT was the only vendor capable of supporting Chesapeake's raw 125G performance. The collaboration of our Chesapeake network processor and the IDT network search accelerator empowers network OEMs to rapidly develop a new generation of multimedia-centric network equipment for the broadband market," said Charles Gershman, Bay Microsystems' founder, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . "Our ongoing collaboration with IDT will further advance broadband network system design while enabling our customers with highly integrated and optimized solutions for their converged voice, video, data and multimedia applications." IDT offers a production-ready control plane library for the network search accelerator, which provides optimal table management for databases. The network search accelerator also comes with additional development tools that facilitate easy programming and early testing, reducing cost, speeding time-to-market, and ultimately protecting the end-user software investment. Bay Microsystems further enables designers with an integrated approach to building networking applications, incorporating IDT 75S10000A support within Chesapeake's Integrated Development Environment See IDE. integrated development environment - interactive development environment (IDE) which is an integral part of Lighthouse, Bay's comprehensive development tool suite.
