Mellanox BlueField-3 B3220 Data Processing Unit (DPU/SmartNIC) Dual-Port 200GbE PCIe 5.0

The Mellanox BlueField-3 B3220 is a high-performance Data Processing Unit (DPU) built on a dual-port 200GbE architecture with PCIe 5.0 connectivity. It integrates a programmable ARM-based processor, hardware cryptographic engines, and SmartNIC capabilities to offload network, security, and storage processing tasks from the host CPU, enabling inline processing at line rate.

Designed for enterprise infrastructure requiring zero-trust security enforcement, the B3220 accelerates packet processing, deep packet inspection, and network telemetry while reducing latency and host CPU overhead. Its hardware-accelerated engines support IPsec, TLS termination, and stateful packet filtering, making it suitable for environments where security policy enforcement must not impact application performance.

The DPU is optimized for disaggregated infrastructure, including SmartNIC-based storage appliances, virtualized RAN workloads in telecommunications, and edge computing deployments where computational resources must be isolated and independently managed from general-purpose hosts.

Ideal for

• Zero-trust security perimeter enforcement with inline cryptographic processing and identity-aware packet filtering
• Hyperscaler and cloud infrastructure with storage disaggregation and NVMe-over-Fabrics (NVMeoF) offload
• Telecommunications vRAN acceleration and packet processing for 5G/6G network functions
• High-frequency trading and low-latency financial data center networks requiring deterministic packet forwarding
• Enterprise data center network virtualization with SmartNIC-based overlay and underlay segmentation
• Telemetry and observability platforms performing inline traffic mirroring and metadata extraction at 200Gbps line rate
