PMC MSP8220 Multi-Service Security-enabled processor is designed to meet the needs of networking, security appliances, and network attached storage applications.

The MSP8220 integrates standards-based security hardware to accelerate internet protocol security (IPSec) and secure socket layer (SSL) performance for security appliances, firewalls, networking, and storage applications. The MSP8220 is part of the MSP8200 Series of highly-integrated, feature-rich products that incorporate the high performance, power efficient MIPS 34K core. The processor provides PCI, dual Ethernet, ROM, Flash, DDR, and low-speed peripheral interfaces, which are connected internally to the MIPS 34K core by a high-bandwidth multiservice bus.
