The Broadcom BCM58800 Stingray PS250P SmartNIC delivers intelligent packet processing at line rate through its dual-port 25GbE architecture, enabling enterprises to offload compute-intensive networking tasks from the host CPU while maintaining sub-microsecond latency profiles across forwarding operations. This infrastructure processing unit (IPU) is built on Broadcom's proven Stingray SmartNIC product family and connects via PCIe Gen 3 x8, providing a standard low-profile form factor that integrates seamlessly into existing server architectures without requiring custom mechanical modifications.
The BCM958802A4960C houses a 16-core Arm Cortex-A72 host CPU that supports Arm-based on-card application execution and DPDK, allowing network engineers and infrastructure architects to run custom workloads directly on the adapter rather than consuming precious server resources. Hardware-accelerated inline cryptography supports both IPsec and TLS encryption at line rate, while RoCE v2 RDMA support and NVMe-oF with dedicated RAID offload engines address the needs of enterprises building high-performance storage fabrics and disaggregated infrastructure. Out-of-band management via a dedicated management port ensures operational visibility independent of data plane health, and upstream Linux kernel support via Broadcom drivers simplifies integration into enterprise environments.
Storage architects, network operations teams, and IT procurement groups evaluating solutions for 25GbE fabric modernization and cryptographic offload will find the Stingray PS250P a compelling choice for reducing CPU tax while increasing security posture across mission-critical applications. Whether deployed in financial services networks requiring in-line encryption, hyperscale data centers optimizing for NVMe-oF performance, or enterprises consolidating security appliances, this Broadcom SmartNIC delivers the programmability and acceleration required for next-generation infrastructure demands.

The Broadcom BCM58800 Stingray PS250P SmartNIC is enterprise networking hardware for data-center, campus, and branch deployments. Common roles include core/distribution switching, server uplinks, top-of-rack fabric, and edge connectivity in mixed Cisco/Juniper/Arista environments.
The Broadcom BCM58800 Stingray PS250P SmartNIC interoperates with standard switching protocols (LACP, MLAG/VPC, 802.1Q, OSPF/BGP). For specific cross-vendor scenarios — Cisco-to-Arista MLAG peering, fabric integration with Cumulus/SONiC, or migration from legacy Catalyst — our network engineers map a compatibility plan as part of the RFQ.
