    Aricent, a global design, and engineering company, and a leader in the data center, enterprise and enterprise networking infrastructure, will release the latest version of its Intelligent Switching Solution (ISS) Version 9.3 at DistribuTECH 2017 in San Diego.

    The release will support the latest generation of Marvell’s chipsets to address the port-density, speed and feature requirements essential for Industrial Ethernet, SMB and enterprise markets. Aricent ISS will take advantage of the following Marvell chipset features:

    • For Enterprise – Virtual LAN (VLAN), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) and Quality of Service (QoS)
    • For Enterprise Security – Layer 2 Access Control Lists (L2 ACL), Layer 3 Access Control Lists (L3 ACL), Network Address Translation (NAT), Firewall, 802.1X-based port authentication
    • Port density and flexible port speeds supporting 1/2.5/5/10/25/40GbE
    • High-availability solutions using switch stacking and in-service software upgrades

    Aricent ISS is an industry recognized intelligent switching and network optimization software platform that supports leading chipsets. The new release provides an upgrade path to the latest generation of the Marvell Prestera DX series that aims to solve the SMB and enterprise 1G port-speed challenges by delivering higher port speeds of 2.5 Gbps and 5 Gbps on the same wiring infrastructure. It also provides a unified architecture for 802.11ac wave-2 access points using 2.5GbE and existing 1GbE LAN deployments without any additional cost to infrastructure.

    “The Aricent Intelligent Switching Solution running on our latest Marvell Prestera DX chipsets provides 1/2.5/10/25/40 Gbps performance to the SMB and enterprise. The Marvell devices offer state-of-the-art switching capabilities, and together with Aricent’s ISS, reduce time to market when upgrading the network to 2.5/5GbE,” said Michael Zimmerman, Vice President and General Manager, Connectivity, Storage and Infrastructure (CSI) Business Unit at Marvell Semiconductor, Inc.
