COPENHAGEN, Denmark — September 30, 2025 (OSLO: NAPA.OL), — Napatech™ today unveiled the F3070X Data Processing Unit (DPU), a next-generation 400G acceleration platform built on the latest Altera^® Agilex^™ FPGA and Intel^® Xeon^® D processor technology. Designed for the most demanding AI, cloud, and enterprise datacenter workloads, the F3070X delivers unprecedented performance, ultra-low latency, flexibility, and security at scale.

Harnessing Altera’s common acceleration platform architecture, the F3070X combines FPGA programmability with powerful CPU processing on a hardware programmable network interface card – eliminating bottlenecks, slashing latency, and unlocking real-time acceleration for AI pipelines, cloud-native services, disaggregated storage, and advanced cybersecurity.

The F3070X is part of Napatech’s new family of production-grade DPUs and SmartNICs, delivering the optimal mix of performance, flexibility, and efficiency for the world’s most advanced datacenters.

With the innovative design that delivers multiple FPGA and CPU configurations along with a vast suite of software, customers can tailor both hardware and software to their exact workloads, ensuring maximum ROI and future-proof adaptability. From lightning-fast data movement to hardware-level acceleration, the F3070X empowers datacenters to scale smarter, process faster, and secure more—without compromise.

“The Altera common acceleration platform architecture has been widely adopted by tier-1 hyperscale datacenter operators worldwide,” said Jarrod Siket, Chief Product & Marketing Officer at Napatech. “By partnering with Altera, we’re bringing this proven design to the next wave of cloud, enterprise, telecom, and AI datacenter operators — unlocking the same transformative benefits at every scale.”

Napatech will showcase its portfolio of DPUs and SmartNICs at Altera Innovator Day, September 30, 2025, in San Jose, California. Live demonstrations will highlight disaggregated AI storage acceleration, backend AI infrastructure, AI storage data compression, and FPGAi coprocessing.

“Napatech’s F3070X sets a new benchmark for intelligent infrastructure acceleration,” said Chuck Tato, GM, Networking and Data Center Business Unit at Altera. “This is not just an upgrade, it is a leap forward. By fusing Altera Agilex^™ FPGA technology with Napatech DPU architecture, this DPU sets a new standard for scalable, secure, and lightning-fast AI and cloud infrastructure. It transforms datacenter strategy from reactive to revolutionary.”
