Sessionmaster EXA8

Sessionmaster EXA8 is an affordable and high-performance hardware platform designed with network visibility and monitoring applications foremost in mind. At the heart of the EXA8 is a 4-core ARM CPU paired with 16GB of DDR4 RAM. The front panel of the EXA8 features 8 copper ports, 2 x 1/10G SFP+ ports, as well as a management and console interfaces. The 8 copper ports of the EXA8 feature a built-in bypass functionality allowing them to not only serve as individual ingress/egress ports, but also as a fail-safe TAP for up to 4 links. To add even more to the versatility and potential applications of the EXA8 it comes equipped with a 1TB M.2 SSD, Micro SD card slot, and two USB 3.0 interfaces.

At Cubro we believe that the EXA8 truly offers an unprecedented network-centric development platform for an almost endless variety of applications. As such, multiple options are available direct from vendors, with application-specific software packages, as well as a community version for research, development, and custom deployments.
