WIN Announces Desktop Networking Platforms with IntelŪ EP80579 System-on-Chip (SoC)
Compact 4GbE and 5GbE LAN models offered
NORTH ANDOVER, MA, October 28, 2008: WIN Enterprises, Inc., a leading designer and manufacturer of embedded controllers and network platforms for Electronic-OEMs, announces the PL-10540 and PL-10550 desktop platforms that feature the IntelŪ EP80579 Integrated Processor with IntelŪ QuickAssist Technology. The EP80579 is the Intel system-on-chip (SoC) purpose-built for the embedded and communications market with highly-integrated security features. The new WIN Enterprises platforms are designed for SOHO/SMB network management and network security applications, such as firewall, VPN, anti-spam, anti-virus, and intrusion detection & prevention.
The PL-10540 and PL-10550 support 4GbE and 5GbE LAN capability, respectively. E-OEMs are offered a scalable selection of 600MHz, 1.066GHz or 1.2 GHz versions of the Intel EP80579 Integrated Processor. Support for Intel QuickAssist high-bandwidth and low-latency accelerator technology is available on select Intel EP80579 SoC processors.
"We consider the Intel EP80579 processor highly significant for the embedded industry," said Chiman Patel, CEO/CTO of WIN Enterprises. "By combining the functions of four chips into one, Intel has simplified and sped up platform design while bringing the benefits of smaller footprint, lowered power consumption, enhanced performance, and comprehensive I/O to the device."
"Intel is committed to meeting the challenges of a world of persistently-connected Internet devices," said Stephen Price, director of marketing, Embedded Performance Products Division, Intel. "The EP80579 enables members of our embedded development ecosystem, such as WIN Enterprises, to design smart, highly-integrated systems that help meet the expectations of this new world with smaller, economical and more efficient designs."
The Intel EP80579 Integrated Processor SoC was designed specifically for embedded market segments that depend on long product lifecycles. This SoC has a 45% smaller footprint with 34% lower power usage than traditional 4-chip board-level designs.[i] Integration of the CPU, North Bridge, Southbridge, and security co-processor on a single die optimizes packet processing and enables the reduced-footprint design of the new WIN Enterprises networking platforms.
