Marvell Octeon Open Network Platform

A general open hardware platform that integrates computing, storage, and networking

Marvell OCTEON TX2 Family Open Network Platforms Designed For Intelligent Networking, IT Security, Edge Computing & Servers

Asterfusion Marvell OCTEON TX2 CN9670 family-based ARM64 and Marvell OCTEON 10 CN102 family-based ARM64 network devices offer significantly higher performance and lower power consumption, with high-bandwidth and low-latency open-network solutions. Our ARM64 architecture can run a variety of applications, such as firewalls, gateways, SD-WANs, CPEs and concentrators, SmartNICs, and DPI tools and more. Asterfusion also provides a standard Linux operating system with a DPDK VPP software package.

ARM servers are becoming increasingly popular thanks to their processing power that’s equivalent to x86 servers, yet with lower cost, power consumption, and footprint.

Marvell OCTEON TX-based ARM64 and Marvell OCTEON 10 CN102-based ARM64 open network appliances are making it easier than ever for enterprises to take advantage of intelligent networking, IT security, edge computing, and server capabilities with 5G.
