SafeNet Announces High End Integrated Security Processor for SME Networking Equipment; SafeXcel-5160 is the Most Cost Effective Security Processor for Gigabit Class SME Appliances.BALTIMORE -- SafeNet, Inc. (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :SFNT), setting the standard for information security, today announced the SafeXcel-5160, adding a high performance processor to the suite of Enterprise Security Processors specifically designed for network equipment manufacturers targeting the small and medium-sized enterprise (SME (1) (Small and Medium-sized Enterprise) See SMB. (2) (Subject Matter Expert) An individual who is well-versed in the policies and procedures of a particular department or division. ) market. The SafeXcel-5160 integrates an industry-standard 32-bit RISC processor with a unique inline security packet engine and flow processor. The SafeXcel-5160 achieves 310 Mbps IPsec throughput with 64-byte packets, and 600 Mbps IPsec throughput with average-size and larger packets. The SafeXcel-5160 is the latest product in SafeNet's range of Enterprise Security Processors. The SafeXcel-5160 is fully compatible with SafeNet's SafeXcel-5140 and SafeXcel-5150 Enterprise Security Processors and provides OEMs an easy migration path in building higher-performance appliances. "The SafeXcel-5160 is designed to provide the best performance option for low-cost, integrated hardware/software security solutions." adds Henk Pruim, Vice President and General Manager for SafeNet's OEM/Networking Business Unit. "The SafeXcel-5160 delivers the best price/performance ratio in the market, making it an optimal choice for OEMs looking for Looking for In the context of general equities, this describing a buy interest in which a dealer is asked to offer stock, often involving a capital commitment. Antithesis of in touch with. high-performance network processing, maximum security, and affordability in a single chip." Pre-integrated with SafeNet's QuickSec Unified security software, the SafeXcel-5160 Enterprise Security Processor enables OEMs to build complete VPN (Virtual Private Network) A private network that is configured within a public network (a carrier's network or the Internet) in order to take advantage of the economies of scale and management facilities of large networks. gateways, broadband access devices and home networking equipment, while significantly reducing time-to-market. The SafeXcel-5160 Enterprise Security Processor features unique characteristics, including: PERFORMANCE - As high bandwidths become more widely available to SMEs, the SafeXcel-5160 processor is precisely delivering the throughput levels this market requires, ranging from 310 Mbps for small packets to 600 Mbps for average-size and larger packets. While existing security-enabled processors can handle large IPsec packets at reasonable data rates, they often perform very poorly when it comes to processing small packets. In contrast, the SafeXcel-5160 chip excels at all packet sizes and maximizes headroom on the embedded processor. PRICE - SMEs are looking for powerful yet economical networking security appliances. With a sub-$80 price tag, the SafeXcel-5160 is the most cost-effective security processor in its performance class - dramatically improving material cost and margins for networking equipment OEMs. INTEGRATION & TIME-TO-MARKET - The SafeXcel-5160 chips are pre-integrated with SafeNet's QuickSec Unified security platform to provide a complete, proven hardware/software security solution. This pre-integration significantly reduces design and integration cycles, resulting in accelerated time to market and reduced project cost for OEMs. FEATURES - The SafeXcel-5160 provides hardware implementations for 3DES, AES, SHA-1, MD5, random number generation, and public-key acceleration. The enterprise security processor also features packet filtering and flow processing, NAT (Network Address Translation) An IETF standard that allows an organization to present itself to the Internet with far fewer IP addresses than there are nodes on its internal network. , NAT-T, NAPT NAPT National Association for Poetry Therapy.

POWER REDUCTION - Power consumption is a major concern among system designers as it affects total system cost, density, and performance. The SafeXcel-5160 reduces system power requirements in two significant ways: first by replacing a two-chip solution with a single chip, and second by providing dedicated IPSec packet processing hardware, which is substantially more power-efficient than using a general purpose processor. The SafeXcel-5160 Enterprise Security Processor is a key component of SafeNet's fully integrated security solutions for OEMs in telecommunications, SME, SOHO Soho (sōhō`, sə–), district of Westminster, London, England, known for its continental restaurants.
