Mellanox Selects CATC's PCI Express Analyzer to Accelerate Their
Product Development PCI Express Protocol Analyzer Key to Timely
Delivery of InfiniBand HCA SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 17
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Computer Access Technology
Corporation(CATC) , a leading communications protocol expert
company, today announced the Mellanox(R) Technologies Ltd., the
leader in InfiniBand(SM) solutions, has selected the CATC
PETracer(TM) ML, PCI Express(TM) protocol analyzer for use in the
design and debug of their third generation InfiniBand Host Channel
Adapters (HCA), the InfiniHost III Ex. Both companies are
exhibiting at the Intel Developer's Forum (IDF) in San Francisco,
which begins today; CATC in booth #534 and Mellanox in booth #640.
"The PETracer ML's superior analysis capabilities has helped us to
validate our design and to quickly locate and identify software and
configuration issues which otherwise would have taken us days, if
not weeks, to find and correct. This has allowed us to accelerate
our development schedules and meet our delivery dates to our OEM
customers," said Roni Ashuri, vice president of Engineering for
Mellanox. "Over the years we have used CATC's InfiniBand analyzers
which have proven to be an invaluable part of our design process.
Even before we had our first prototypes we used the CATC analyzers
to validate our design and ensure a first time correct
implementation." The InfiniHost III Ex features an 8x PCI Express
interface that delivers 32 and 64-bit InfiniBand capabilities for
PCI Express based servers. The InfiniHost III Ex includes dual 10
Gbps InfiniBand ports that deliver unmatched throughput and
extremely low latencies in a low power single chip implementation.
In addition to the semiconductor device, Mellanox is shipping a low
profile InfiniHost III Ex HCA PCI Express add-in adapter card.
"Mellanox is the leading provider of InfiniBand semiconductor
products and when they needed a PCI Express analyzer to support
their product development, we were happy that they once again
selected CATC's expert analysis tools," stated Carmine Napolitano,
president of CATC. "We are committed to broadening our product
footprint in order to meet our customers' growing needs by
delivering a wide range of protocol solutions." PETracer ML uses a
high impedance non-intrusive probing technology allowing full,
unaltered data pass-through. It offers a dual approach for tapping
into the PCI Express fabric with a slot interposer card and a
mid-bus probe. PETracer ML utilizes the intuitive and powerful CATC
Trace(TM) expert analysis software to process, decode and analyze
captured PCI Express traffic. Embedded in this sophisticated
application is a deep understanding of the PCI Express protocol
hierarchy and intricacies, enabling engineers to quickly capture
and validate product designs. The CATC Trace provides accurate,
reliable and thorough decodes of Transaction Layer Packets (TLPs),
Data Link Layer Packets (DLLPs) and all PCI Express primitives. For
deeper analysis, users can display packet contents as raw 10-bit
codes. PETracer ML utilizes the CATC Universal Protocol Analysis
System(TM) (UPAS(TM) 10000), a high bandwidth hardware platform
capable of supporting multi-lane analysis and traffic generation
for PCI Express as well as Fibre Channel, InfiniBand, SAS and
Serial ATA. About CATC Computer Access Technology Corporation
