TPACK Products are SOFTSILICON chips providing standard feature sets for packet transport applications, which can be adapted and customized to fit customer demands. 

Available TPACK Products fall into the following major categories:

• P-OCKET OTN Mappers
• SMARTPACK EoS Mappers
• Carrier Switches & Traffic Managers 

TPACK Products are SOFTSILICON chip solutions, based on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA). They provide a full and comprehensive feature set for packet transport applications, but also the flexibility to adapt and customize this feature set to fit changing customer and market demands. See SOFTSILICON Explained for more details.

TPACK Products are developed as part of a system level solution. They are thus pre-integrated and pre-tested providing telecom equipment vendors with the assurance that system level integration issues have already been taken into consideration.

Additional information about each major category:

OTN Mappers provide efficient OTN mapping and framing of packet data for transport over telecommunication networks.  It maps any client type and rate into right-sized ODU-containers by an adaptable ODU mechanism including mapping of Gigabit Ethernet into ODU0. The P-OCKET Mappers from TPACK provide full feature set solutions with the ability to adapt and customize to accomodate proprietary platform requirements. The P-OCKET Mappers range in bandwidth from 2.5 Gbps to 100 Gbps and cover applications from Muxponders to large Add-Drop MUX. The P-OCKET is designed to meet all your needs for building OTN networking equipment that eliminates the need for SONET/SDH as intermediate transport layer.

EoS Mappers provide framing and mapping functionality that enables packet data to be efficiently transported over existing telecommunication networks. Examples are Ethernet over NG-SONET/SDH and Ethernet over NG-PDH. Packet Mapper Products include high-level driver API Software for ease of integration into application software.

Carrier Switches and Traffic Managers combine packet processing and advanced traffic management functionality in a single chip solution. Carrier Packet Engines can simultaneously support a wide range of packet data protocols including Carrier Ethernet, IP/MPLS, VPLS/PWE3 as well as more recent PBB-TE/PBT and T-MPLS protocols with full-duplex, non-blocking switching capacity up to 40 Gbps. Due to unique design of TPACK Carrier Packet Engines, switching capacity can be maintained irrespective of the load placed on the chip. Advanced traffic management functionality is provided in-line with MEF recommendations. Carrier Packet Engine products include high-level driver API Software for ease of integration into application software.
