This networking chip is designed by Intel in house, similar to the Ericsson chip on Intel 4. It's not a 3rd party design win.

Also, it's a peripheral chip probably targeting 2026-ish, 2 years after the claimed "manufacturing ready" date of 18A. Current chips for this application are being made on N6, for reference, so that's the bar to beat.

18A was always claimed to be ready H2 2024 and mass production 2025. Where is the 2 year delay?

Intel themselves have explicitly only talked about 18A products coming H2'25, and they announced those months ago. A new die just being announced now would of course come later, or Intel would have announced it previously.
