Module description

The RTL-TDEA Crypto Module is a PCI card developed to encrypt and decrypt serial user data using Triple Data Encryption (TDEA) algorithms certified to FIPS-140-2 Level 2 security requirements. The certified TDEA algorithms include TECB, TCBC Encrypt and TCFB-64, TOFB-64, Encrypt and Decrypt. The crypto module is a multi-chip embedded short form PCI card (ISA standard) with all of the control functions and encryption algorithms implemented in firmware and hosted in an FPGA. All control of the module is via an RS-232, 9600 Baud DTE UART interface while the data is passed through dedicated RS-422 input and output ports at a rate of up to 10 Mbps.
