48x 1G/10G SFP+ Ports and 6x 40G/100G QSFP28 Ports

The PacketLion NX-PBPL-1S2 is a purpose-built network packet broker designed for use in top-of-rack applications and network perimeter use. The system can be used to optimize port utilization of existing infrastructure, or as a stand-alone device in L2-L4 filtering applications.

To ensure seamless integration into your monitoring infrastructure, all PacketLions offer a full API interface using Netconf.
