• Manufacturer: Integrated Device Technology

Multicast
PES32NT24AG2 supports up to 64 multicast groups and is fully compliant to the PCI-SIG Multicast ECN. This device also supports multicast across
switch partitions. Applications include storage mirroring and data or table update in communications control planes.
DMA
and manipulation, thereby increasing system performance. Along with NTB, the DMA engines can be used in Storage systems, large data or control
planes in networking equipment, High-Performance Computing platforms, and other embedded systems.
Isolated Port Clocking With SSC
common or separate clock configuration. This IDT-unique capability provides greater flexibility in board design and configuration for modular systems
and connectivity across backplanes or cables. The SSC option allows EMI reduction to meet FCC standards, where applicable.
Hardware Error Containment
processing allow errors to spread through the system. A hardware error containment feature blocks the spreading of errors by isolating bad packets
and preventing them from leaving the switch, thereby avoiding system contamination. Benefits of hardware error containment include increased
robustness in high-availability systems and insurance against a variety of error-handling scenarios in arbritrary CPUs/endpoints.

IDT 89HPES32NT24AG2 Product Brief
Multicast provides the ability to distribute data from one sender to multiple recipients simultaneously, off-loading processor cycles. The
The DMA engines are used to transfer large amounts of data to and from system memory, off-loading the CPU cycles to focus on data processing
In addition to the global clock network, the PES32NT24AG2 supports independent per-port clocking with SSC. Each port can operate in the
Traditional error handling mechanisms in most systems are handled by software in the root processor. Often, delays in error notification and
