X3 Advanced NPBs
ADVANCED TRAFFIC INTELLIGENCE
SSL/TLS Decryption, Data Masking, Packet Deduplication
Modern network monitoring and analytics do not only rely on packets. Security and NPM solutions need a complete visibility of the flow context. The pre-treatment layer must understand this context to offer the best-in-class level of traffic optimization.
The new generation of X3-Series Network Packet Brokers enables full visibility over packets and flows, as well as complex advanced processing for extended visibility. The X3-Series are the most versatile Network Packet Brokers, with both simple and very advanced features.

A Network Packet Broker (NPB) is a device that optimizes traffic flow between TAP and SPAN connections and network monitoring, security, and acceleration tools. By maintaining a many-to-many (M:M) port mapping of network ports to monitoring ports, they can direct network traffic efficiently. Filters can be applied to optimize bandwidth usage on the network, and load on connected tools, increasing their performance.
Network architectures are constantly becoming more complex and distributed. So are network speeds, volumes of data, and traffic. Network Packet Brokers help you optimize the performance of your monitoring and security tools across the entire network by giving each device the correct packet data, which increases network efficiency while reducing your costs.
