FPGA TK242

TK242 from Atomic Rules is a bitstream that provides lossless packet capture for two 100GbE streams – out-of-the-box with no FPGA programming required. The TK242 IP runs on BittWare cards with Intel® Agilex™ FPGAs. Sustaining PCIe Gen4 x16 throughput over 200 Gb/s from Ethernet to user space host memory, TK242 provides a runtime programmable 200 Gb/s RSS filter, 6-tuple, 64K entry flow-table and queue routing. All formatting – including PCAP generation – is done in hardware, offloading that function from the host CPU. High-performance timing capability includes nanosecond-resolution packet head timestamping for fusing two 100GbE streams into a single time-monotonic ordered stream.
