Zhiqing chip fully started mass production, Xin H3C injects core power into intelligent network

A few days ago, New H3C Group, a subsidiary of Unigroup, officially announced that its self-developed high-end programmable network processor chip Zhiqing 660 has started mass production. Zhiqing series of chips are fully commercialized, and will build a complete network chip supply chain system for the domestic ICT industry, and inject nuclear "core" power into the construction of intelligent networks.

Widely used in the data communication field, Zhiqing 660 accepts external orders simultaneously
As the only network processor chip in China that supports high-level language programming, Zhiqing 660 integrates 256 dedicated processors, a total of 4096 hardware threads, supports 12 LPDDR5 controllers, contains 18 billion transistors, and has an interface throughput of up to 1.2Tbps. Zhiqing 660 has outstanding advantages such as ultra-high integration, high performance, large capacity, strong scalability, and green energy saving. It can be widely used in data communication fields such as routing, switching, security, and wireless.
New H3C Group Vice President and President of Semiconductor Product Line Kong Pengliang said that Zhiqing 660 will not only be applied to various internal network products of New H3C, but will also start accepting orders from external customers from August 2021 to provide core power for network upgrade and innovation.

In addition, the next-generation Zhiqing chip has also entered the development stage and is expected to be officially released in 2022. The next generation of Zhiqing chips will use more advanced technology and more advanced packaging technology to refresh the performance of intelligent network processors.
Introducing Zhiqing OS+ development kit to accelerate the expansion of core applications
As an important component of the Zhiqing chip system, H3C Group also launched the industry’s first dedicated operating system for network business processing—Engiant OS. The newly released Zhiqing OS has three core advantages: ultra-lightweight, ultra-fast response, and rich management modules.
In order to support developers to use Zhiqing chips more quickly, conveniently and efficiently, New H3C Group has simultaneously launched Zhiqing complete development kits. The development kit covers SDK development kit (Software Development Kit), PDK development kit (Packet-processing Development Kit), integrated simulator, and provides a visual programming tool-Zhiqing IDE integrated development environment, supports C language programming, and can be based on user needs The recommended code is automatically generated. Developers can develop different functional features based on different services based on the framework code of Zhiqing to meet different application scenarios, greatly improve R&D efficiency and reduce R&D costs.
Launched Zhiqing BOX, opening a new era of software-defined equipment
In addition to supporting the internal products of the New H3C Group, the Engiant BOX (EngiantBOX) based on the Intel 660 chip will be on sale in Q4 this year. The Engiant BOX is a device with 48 10GE/25GE ports + 8 100GE ports. By loading different software applications, users can be used as routers, switches, security gateways, wireless controllers and other different network equipment applications. The launch of Zhiqing BOX announces the opening of a new era of software-defined equipment, helping the industry to freely define network equipment.
Zhiqing's strategy of "three steps" outlines the blueprint of Zhilianxin
As the core device of network communication products, the network processor chip directly defines the capability boundary of network equipment. Facing the future, Xin H3C puts forward a three-phase development strategy of "breaking through key technologies, expanding the core cloud ecology, and leading the digital future" in chip research and development, and is committed to drawing a core blueprint for intelligent connectivity.
At the same time, in order to help the development of China's integrated circuit design industry, New H3C and Ziguangyun have jointly built a one-stop cloud chip platform based on Ziguang Chip Cloud 2.0 to promote chip design companies to reduce costs and increase efficiency, and achieve rapid and stable development.
From the breakthrough of core technology to the construction of smart city, New H3C Group is continuously improving the strategic layout of “core-cloud-network-edge-end” with its comprehensive innovation strength, and contributes importantly to the development and layout of “digital China”. Digital power. In the future, Xin H3C will be based on the "Cloud Wisdom Native" strategy and "Digital Brain 2021", adhering to an open, win-win, and growing mentality, working with partners to create a smart future, and helping hundreds of industries to accelerate the digitalization of the intelligent era with core technology Transformation will paint a future world of wisdom, agility, reliability and safety.
