Many storage, networking, and embedded applications require fast I/O throughput for optimal performance. Intel® I/O processors allow servers, workstations and storage subsystems to transfer data faster, reduce communication bottlenecks, and improve overall system performance by offloading I/O processing functions from the host CPU.
The table below provides a quick overview of the Intel I/O processor family. The Intel® IOP34x family of processors, with Intel XScale® microarchitecture, builds on more than a decade of leadership in I/O processor technology.
