Installing the NetVanta VPN Accelerator Card (1202368L1)
The optional VPN Accelerator Card plugs into a 32-bit PCI slot and is designed to be used in the
NetVanta 3305 and following products to provide encryption/decryption and security acceleration services
for the host processor. The card is a 1-U high PC card with gold fingers to interface to a 3.3V keyed PCI
connector. It provides the following security services to the host processor: DES, Triple-DES, AES,
SHA-1, MD5, and Random Number Generation. Performance metrics include 528 Mbps – DES,
176 Mbps – 3DES, and 422 Mbps – AES. The card is powered from the +3.3V rail of the PCI Bus, and the
power consumption of the card will not exceed 2 Watts.
