Manufactured on industry-leading 22nm process technology with 3D tri-gate transistors, these 4th generation Intel® Core™ processors are based on the Intel® microarchitecture codenamed Haswell. The introduction of Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions (Intel® AVX) 2.0 benefits math, codec, image, and digital signal processing software while improving performance in face detection, professional imaging, and high-performance computing. Paired with the Intel® Communications Chipset 89xxCC series, this processor-based platform extends the scalability of Intel® architecture (IA) into smaller footprint communications systems without sacrificing industry requirements such as workload acceleration and compression, multicore processing, and virtualization. The platform addresses the needs of thermally constrained solutions, such as midrange security appliances, branch office routers, network access, media and communications servers, small cells, control plane processing, and storage.
