T4 - Fourth-Generation Protocol Offload Engine
The T4 represents Chelsio’s fourth‐generation TCP offload (TOE) de-
sign, third‐generation iSCSI design, and second‐generation iWARP
(RDMA) implementation. For the server connection, the T4 chip in-
cludes a PCI Express v2.0 ×8 host interface. With support for the
5Gbps Gen2 data rate, the PCIe interface provides up to 32Gbps of
bandwidth to the server. T4 also adds support for PCIe I/O virtual-
ization. Most of T4 features are enhanced versions of those found in
T3. Features that carry over from T3 include stateless offloads, pack-
et filtering (firewall offload), and traffic shaping (media streaming).

Complete and Flexible TCP Offload
The T4 has hundreds of programmable registers for protocol con-
figuration, RFCs, and offload control. The T420-BCH can offload TCP
processing per connection, per-server, per-interface, and globally
and simultaneously tunnel traffic from non-offloaded connections to
the host processor for the native TCP/IP stack to process. The T420-
BCH provides a flexible zero copy capability for regular TCP connec-
tions, requiring no changes to the sender, to deliver line rate per-
formance at minimal CPU utilization.

Robust, Proven Solution
Subjected to thousands of hours of compatibility testing, over multi-
ple years of stress testing by several OEM test suites and production
deployments in servers, storage systems and cluster computing,
Chelsio’s robust, stable protocol offload technology delivers proven
performance in a wide range of environments. The T420-BCH is
generations ahead of competing products.

Packet Switching and Routing
T420-BCH integrates a high performance packet switch, which al-
lows switching traffic from any of the input ports to any of the out-
put ports (wire-to-wire) and from any of the output ports to any of
the input ports (host-to-host).
