Xilinx, Inc. announced the industry’s first low latency 25G Ethernet IP for FPGAs to address throughput challenges in data center applications. The low latency 25G Ethernet MAC and PCS LogiCORE IP solution helps to reduce data center CapEx by providing a migration path from 10G to 25G links and delivers a drastic increase in performance by more than doubling the front panel bandwidth between top of rack switches and servers (10G to 25G). This unique industry offering also supports the new 25G Ethernet Consortium specification and will be aligned with the industry’s continuing advancements in next-generation processors, which are doubling their performance for tomorrow’s data center servers.

Xilinx is demonstrating the 25G Ethernet MAC and PCS LogiCORE IP solution at Supercomputing, November 17-20, 2014, Booth #3903 and #4006, Ernest N. Morial Convention Center,New Orleans, Louisiana. The live demonstation utilizes two Virtex® UltraScale VCU107 boards communicating over four channels of 25G Ethernet through 5 meters of direct attached copper cable and two QSFP+ modules.
