AMCC Selects TeamF1’s Managed
Access Point Solution for AMCC’s PowerPC 405EX Processor
MAPS
turnkey package for SMB market offers comprehensive 802.11
support; leverages high performance and advanced security
resources of AMCC’s PowerPC 405EX
FREMONT, Calif.— June 04, 2007– TeamF1,
Inc. (www.TeamF1.com),
the leader in embedded networking and security software,
announced that it has been selected to integrate its Managed
Access Point Solution software (MAPS) on to the new PowerPC
405EX processor from Applied Micro Circuits Corp. (AMCC) (NASDAQ:AMCC).
TeamF1’s Managed Access Point solution is a comprehensive
turnkey software package that combines the latest 802.11
wireless standards with field-proven networking and security
components. With its support for the latest drafts of the
new 802.11n standard, MAPS is especially suited for
high-performance wireless applications that need advanced
management and hardware acceleration capabilities to meet
demanding performance requirements.
The PowerPC 405EX is an embedded processor designed for
next-generation WLAN applications—like those provided by
TeamF1’s MAPS—requiring exceptional performance, small
footprint, and low power. MAPS software also supports the
405EX’s Turbo Security Engine, which incorporates an
advanced security engine with header/trailer processing
capability and support for the broadest range of security
protocols.
“The integration of MAPS with AMCC’s PowerPC 405EX will be
another milestone in our strategic alliance,” said Mukesh
Lulla, president of TeamF1. “Previously, we integrated our
managed access point middleware (Air Secure Access Point, or
ASAP) with AMCC’s PowerPC 405EP platform, enabling devices
to add embedded secure AP features with minimal integration
effort. Since MAPS was built on the foundation of ASAP, AMCC
knows that its customers will receive software with
field-proven components and a state-of-the-art management
framework shared with other TeamF1
SMBware™
solutions.”
“We are pleased that TeamF1’s MAPS software will be
available for the PowerPC 405EX processor,” said Charlie
Ashton, director of software at AMCC. “The PowerPC 405EX is
an ideal solution for enterprise WLAN access points and MAPS
provides the networking and security features that our
customers need. We expect many customers to adopt the
PowerPC 405EX running MAPS software as a way to minimize
time-to-market for their products.”
TeamF1 will be in AMCC’s demonstration suite 2424 of the
Grand Hyatt Hotel at Computex Taipei 2007 in Taiwan, June
5-9, 2007, where more details on the Managed Access Point
Solution on the PowerPC 405EX processor will be available.
In addition, TeamF1 demonstrated it’s Secure Gateway
Solution on the PowerPC® 440EPx Sequoia platform, announced
at the Embedded Systems Conference, San Jose, earlier in the
year.
Availability
The PowerPC 405EX will sample in the third quarter of 2007.
The Managed Access Point Solution will be available on the
PowerPC 405EX in Q4 of 2007 with flexible licensing terms
including a source code license and a variety of production
license (royalty) options.
