2-PORT 40G PCIE GEN3
2 × 40 Gbps PACKET CAPTURE AND ANALYSIS
Use cutting-edge network acceleration technology to add realtime line rate performance to your application. Napatech 2-port 40 Gbps accelerators provide full packet capture and analysis of network data at 80 Gbps with zero packet loss. The Napatech accelerator will capture all frames, including erroneous frames normally discarded by standard NICs.
The Napatech accelerator allows you to merge data from ports into a single, time-ordered analysis stream. It supports 1-128 packet streams using intelligent hardware flow distribution to allow your application to scale to higher packet rates with no packet loss. The Napatech accelerator will distribute packets based on flow or on L3/L4 filter criteria.
The 8 GB DDR3 RAM buffer allows buffering packets on the accelerator to prevent packet loss during peak server loads. Packets are hardware timestamped when they arrive at the network ports, ensuring that the timestamp is always reliable.
The accelerator also comes in a NEBS level 3 compliant variant.
