Xilinx and Aquantia Extend Capabilities of Existing Copper Cabling Infrastructure for Data Center, Mobile, Enterprise and Video Applications
Xilinx All Programmable solutions together with new Aquantia AQrate technology address infrastructure bottlenecks and deliver unprecedented throughput
SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Xilinx, Inc. (NASDAQ: XLNX) and Aquantia, the market leader of high-speed Ethernet connectivity solutions, today announced they are extending the capabilities of existing copper cabling infrastructure for data center, mobile, enterprise and video applications. Aquantia's recently announced AQrate product line enables 5 times higher throughput than current Gigabit Ethernet (GE) solutions without requiring any change to the copper cabling infrastructure. This technology allows the next generation of 2D/3D TORUS networks, 802.11ac Wireless LAN Access Points (APs), enterprise switches and client devices to operate at unprecedented speeds. Together with Xilinx's All Programmable FPGA and IP portfolios, the AQrate technology addresses mobile infrastructure bottlenecks and enables a disruptive set of solutions across a broad range of applications.
