Portwell is thrilled to announce the successful validation of 6WIND’s high-performance cloud networking software on the Portwell CAR-5071, our latest next-generation network appliance powered by latest Intel® Xeon® platform.

This joint validation confirms how Portwell’s advanced COTS hardware enables software-defined networking platforms to achieve multi-terabit performance with exceptional scalability and efficiency.

Portwell CAR-5071: A High-Performance, Scalable Platform Built for Cloud Networking

Developed as a flexible and future-ready system, the Portwell CAR-5071 offers a robust hardware foundation tailored for demanding cloud, telecom, and security workloads.

Key Hardware Features
  • Based on the latest Intel® Xeon® platform
  • Dual-CPU architecture for maximum parallel processing
  • Up to 2TB GB DDR5 memory
  • 6× standard PCIe Gen5 HHHL NIC slots (x16) for high-throughput network expansion
  • 6× front-accessible, hot-swappable U.2 / SATA SSD bays
  • Compatible with both NVIDIA ConnectX-7 and Intel® LAN adapters
  • Platform capable of reaching up to 2.4 Tbps of aggregate traffic throughput
  • Highly scalable design, allowing customers to upgrade compute, storage, and network interfaces as business needs grow
This combination of CPU performance, PCIe Gen5 bandwidth, and modular expandability makes the CAR-5071 an ideal platform for cloud-native, virtualized, and software-defined networking environments.

6WIND Validates Multi-Terabit Performance on Portwell CAR-5071

During 6WIND’s recent performance tests, the CAR-5071 demonstrated exceptional results without any dedicated hardware accelerators, showcasing the powerful synergy between modern COTS hardware and optimized networking software.

Performance highlights achieved on Portwell hardware include:
  • Routing:
    Up to 170 Gbps per core, scaling beyond 1.6 Tbps per instance
  • IPsec:
    Up to 22 Gbps per core, scaling to over 600 Gbps per instance
    Supporting 100,000+ secure tunnels
  • CG-NAT:
    Up to 120 Gbps per core, scaling above 600 Gbps per instance
    Handling hundreds of millions of sessions
These results demonstrate that Portwell’s next-generation hardware delivers the compute density, memory bandwidth, and PCIe throughput required to support software-driven multi-terabit cloud networking solutions.

A Scalable, Future-Proof Platform for Software Innovators

With rapid advancements in CPU architecture, PCIe bandwidth, and NIC capabilities, Portwell’s CAR-5071 gives customers:
  • A hardware-agnostic foundation for virtualization and cloud networking
  • Flexible scalability for compute, storage, and I/O expansion
  • Compatibility with leading NIC ecosystems
  • A sustainable path to high-density performance without specialized ASICs
