PacketLion NX-PBPL-1SC - Network packet broker
OVERVIEW
Network Packet Brokers, also called Data (Network) Monitoring Switches, help you to intelligently manage your passively tapped network data and – through innovative technology – provide the analysis tools with the data packets reliably and in optimised form.
In the world of the Internet of Things (IoT), the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), and Operational Technology (OT), managing and securing networks of numerous low-rate devices presents unique challenges for which the NX-PBPL-1S2 can provide an essential addition to existing monitoring tools.
PacketLion NX-PBPL-1SC built on the advanced Trident 3 switch offers high-density form factor and robust functionality. NX-PBPL-1SC supports a wide range of connection rates, from 10/100/1000BASE-T Copper to 10G Fiber. Additionally, it features advanced capabilities such as GRE/VXLAN Termination, Nanosecond Timestamping and Packet Slicing for optimized data processing.
By filtering out the data with hardware-based filtering mechanisms before it is routed out, this allows you to evaluate multiple 10G lines with existing 1G analysis tools, for example, while reducing the amount of data for hassle-free and secure analysis. Data that is not of interest is either discarded or sent to other tools for further analysis.
