GigaVUE-HD8
Purpose-built, High-density Intelligent Visibility Fabric Node
As Enterprises, Data Centers and Service Providers respond to the ever-increasing volume of network traffic and the need to effectively and efficiently manage their environment, they look to Gigamon for a scalable, pervasive, and intelligent monitoring infrastructure platform.
With a 2.4Tb backplane, the high-performance GigaVUE-HD8 was purpose-built to handle speeds of 1Gb, 10Gb, 40Gb and 100Gb. It is first in its category to break the terabit backplane barrier and support 100Gb blades.
The 14RU high, rack-mountable GigaVUE-HD8 with its modular design and clustering capabilities allows you to build a scalable platform for a monitoring infrastructure that can address today’s and tomorrow’s needs. It can accommodate thousands of map rules and features some of the industry’s highest density line cards with up to 64 x 40Gb, or 256 x 10Gb ports, or 384 x 1Gb ports in maximum configuration.
The GigaVUE fabric nodes are designed to work together to create an intelligent and pervasive Visibility Fabric architecture with the capability to aggregate, replicate, filter and transform traffic from across broad networks to the appropriate, centralized management, monitoring and security systems.
