PacketLion 1SC Network Packet Broker
Compact Network Packet Broker for Intelligent Traffic Visibility
The PacketLion 1SC is a compact 1U network packet broker designed for efficient traffic visibility in edge and distributed environments. With a mix of RJ45 and SFP+ ports, it supports up to 108 Gbps throughput, delivering reliable, lossless performance with a non-blocking architecture. Its flexible port mapping enables seamless traffic aggregation and distribution across multiple use cases.
The platform offers advanced L2–L4 filtering, load balancing, packet slicing, and tunnel support for modern network protocols. With scalable stacking, inline deployment options, and centralized management, it provides a cost-effective and intelligent solution for real-time monitoring, security analysis, and network optimization.
