PacketTiger 1XL-20 Network Packet Broker
4 × NMC Slots (Up to 32 Ports) | Modular 1G/10G/40G/100G Packet Broker with 20 Gb/s Throughput
The PacketTiger 1XL-20 is a modular next-generation Network Packet Broker designed for flexible deployment in data centre and perimeter network environments. It enables efficient traffic optimisation, intelligent filtering, and advanced packet processing while maximising the utilisation of existing infrastructure or operating as a standalone L2–L4 visibility solution.
Built with a modular NMC-based architecture, the system supports scalable port expansion and high adaptability across multiple interface types. It delivers advanced traffic handling features including filtering, deduplication, data masking, slicing, tunnelling, packet capture, and replay. Optional NetFlow/IPFIX and Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) capabilities provide enhanced network intelligence, while hardware acceleration ensures efficient and reliable packet processing.
