IntelliProp NVMe-to-NVMe Bridge (IPC-NV171A-BR)
Block Diagram

Overview
The IntelliProp IPC-NV171A-BR, NVMe-to-NVMe Bridge utilizes the IntelliProp NVMe Host Accelerator Core and the IntelliProp NVMe Target Core to create an NVMe protocol bridge. The bridge is architected such that the command submissions, completion notifications and data transmissions may be either passed through without interruption or intercepted for analysis or modification. The architecture implements a ”sandbox” area in the bridge so that IntelliProp customers may implement their own custom RTL and/or firmware in the bridge. The protocol interface is compliant to the NVM Express 1.3 specification and is fully verified using a coverage driven methodology in pseudo random simulation. Applications include: High performance read/write caching; Data Deduplication; LBA Remapping; Namespace manipulation; Data encryption; Data compression; Endpoint aggregation.
