FPGAs transform wireline infrastructure by providing unparalleled speed, adaptability, and processing power for today’s high-demand networks. With capabilities like real-time data handling, protocol flexibility, and ultra-low latency, FPGAs enable advancements across telecommunications, secure data transmission, and AI at the edge.
FPGAs are ideal for high-throughput wireline applications because they support multiple high-speed I/O channels, a high-performance/low-power fabric, low latency, and the ability to adapt to new protocols and standards.
FPGAs can support multiple high-speed I/O channels and high data rates required in wireline communications. They also support various rates and generations of Ethernet, PCIe, and other communication interfaces
FPGAs can be reprogrammed to support new protocols, a major advantage when telecom standards continue to evolve rapidly.
FPGAs enable real-time insights, allowing systems to monitor and respond to network conditions or threats instantly.
By offloading processor-intensive tasks from the CPU, FPGAs can accelerate specific functions such as BNG, UPF, and many more.
Edge AI processing occurs in wireline infrastructure like routers and switches, allowing for smarter decision-making without relying on centralized data centers. Altera FPGAs support edge AI by processing complex AI inferencing models directly in wireline equipment . This allows immediate data filtering, anomaly detection, or network optimization without added latency or bandwidth use.
