Network Packet Broker cVu

Packet data is essential for network visibility, helping NetOps quickly resolve issues and enabling SecOps to investigate security breaches. Reliable packet delivery is crucial for analysis tools, security applications (NDR/XDR), and SIEM tools, as every packet matters.

cPacket cVu packet brokers are unique because they perform advanced packet processing at line rate, leveraging dedicated hardware based on proprietary ASICs and FPGAs behind every port. cPacket also offers a simple licensing model that unlocks all advanced features of our products, unlike our competitors, who charge extra fees for advanced capabilities in products with higher management complexity and lower performance.
