geez another company wants in... RED HERRING VENTURE MARKET SOUTH, ATLANTA, March 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Orologic, Inc. is a startup enterprise positioning itself to become a leading supplier of system-on-a-chip solutions for Wide Area Networks (WAN) and enterprise backbone network switching solutions. Orologic's integrated circuits are designed to help switch vendors address their customers' requirements in a timely and cost-effective manner. The Company is based in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. Orologic solutions feature several high-speed WAN market "firsts," including an AAL-5 SAR, Guaranteed Frame Rate service, carrier-class OAM capabilities, protection switching, dual leaky bucket policing, dual leaky bucket shaping, a multi-layer decoder/forwarding engine, and interworking functions all operating at wire speeds of 2.4 Gbps (full duplex). Additionally, Orologic is the first to implement the optimum Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduler, which allows switch suppliers to provide individual rate and delay (QoS) guarantees to up to 256K individual sessions with per- session queueing. Packet memory with up to 1 million buffers and a large portion of the session control memory are implemented in RDRAM using two Rambus interfaces thereby significantly reducing the total system cost.
