F3076X 400G
Data Processing Unit (DPU)

2×200G, 4×100G, 2×100G, 1x400G

Powerful Intel®/Altera®-based Data Processing Unit (DPU)
The Napatech DPU F3076X is a 400G PCIe Gen5 card with an Agilex AGI041 FPGA and an Intel® Xeon® 6 32-core SoC. The F3076X is based on Intel’s DPU architecture, and the unique combination of FPGA and full-fledged Xeon® 6 CPU on a PCI card allows for unique offload capabilities. The Agilex AGI041 FPGA provides 2×100/200Gbps Ethernet, 3x PCIe Gen 5.0 interfaces, and plenty of resources to support a 400G pipeline for line rate processing of data. One PCIe Gen 5.0 interface connects to the host, whereas another PCIe Gen 5.0 interface provides full 400G bandwidth between the FPGA and the Xeon® 6 SoC. A third PCIe Gen 5.0 interface could be used for additional 16 lanes of PCIe to the host or provide an expansion port to remote PCIe devices, such as NVMe storage. Compute Express Link (CXL) over the host interface and the expansion port provides high bandwidth and low latency memory and resource sharing, supporting key computing use cases like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). 400G with no bottlenecks!

Customization on demand
The F3076X offers both programmable hardware and software, to tailor the DPU to the most demanding and specific needs in your network, and to modify and enhance its capabilities over the life of the deployment. The Napatech Link-Programmable™ software package for F3076X includes documentation, tools, configurations, and sample code to kick-start development of FPGA bitstreams and Xeon® 6 applications.

Target applications
The DPU F3076X is the perfect solution for network, storage and security offload and acceleration. It enables virtualized cloud, cloud-native or bare-metal server virtualization with tenant isolation.
In the era of exponential data growth, storage is the backbone of enterprise innovation. DPUs are the game-changers that transform your storage services from ordinary to extraordinary. By handling storage management tasks independently from CPUs, DPUs increase data transfer speeds, improve input/output operations per second (IOPS), and provide rapid access to vital information, all while significantly reducing latency.

With DPUs managing encryption, authentication, and access controls at the hardware level, sensitive information is protected without performance trade-offs. By offloading security workloads from overburdened CPUs, DPUs deliver real-time threat detection, seamless encryption, and granular access controls—without sacrificing performance.

DPUs deliver lightning-fast processing and data movement, dramatically reducing bottlenecks and latency in AI pipelines. By intelligently offloading non-computational tasks, DPUs allow CPUs and GPUs to dedicate their cycles entirely to AI training, inference, and analytics.

A NEW FAMILY OF PRODUCTION-GRADE F3076X DPUS AND N6470 SMARTNICS

The hardware is complemented with software packages that are fully warranted and supported and leverages an application stack acceleration framework for the easy inclusion of customer-specific logic and workloads. The products also feature an innovative disaggregated design that allows for deployment as a SmartNIC that can be expanded to DPU configurations with the addition of an optional Intel® Xeon® 6 SoC. Disaggregation provides flexible combinations of FPGA and SoC resources that deliver customers the optimal mix of functionality, performance, size, cost, and power, while supported in standard servers from leading manufacturers.

“For multiple generations, Altera and Intel’s infrastructure processing solutions have powered a majority of the world’s largest data centers. The expanding customer adoption of our DPU and SmartNIC platforms has led to our next-generation F3000X-PL acceleration development platform. We are pleased to see leading-edge products coming from our ecosystem partners such as Napatech with the F3076X and N6470, paving the way networks are built and scaled in the era of cloud and AI infrastructure.”
