Gigamon GigaVUE-HC2

Product code: HC2

Traffic visibility is required to efficiently run today’s network infrastructures.  As Big Data expands, needs become more complex. Enterprises, datacenters, and service providers have come to rely on Gigamon for scalable, high-density, traffic-intelligent visibility solutions.

Features and Benefits

Multi-purpose design:

  • Consolidates multiple features and capabilities into a single design to reduce overall capital and operating expenditures.
  • Hot-swappable modules: 24 x 10Gb/1Gb ports, 6 x 40Gb ports, 2 x 100Gb ports, embedded TAPs and inline bypass modules.
  • Optional GigaSMART technology provides intelligent packet modification, manipulation,
    transformation, and transport.

Inline bypass protection:

  • Protects the traffic and the inline tool, making the overall system more efficient and secure.
  • Supports many-to-many inline configurations to better leverage the inline tools available.
  • Application-aware capabilities to send different applications to different tools or to bypass
    processing on trusted applications.
  • Inline tools may be run in serial or fanned across multiple tools to maximise performance.

Embedded TAPs:

  • Compresses and secures TAP aggregation points within the Gigamon unit for immediate
    backplane connectivity.
  • TAP modules available in a variety of copper and fiber options.

Medium-sized form factor:

  • Reduced footprint to save space, power, and cooling.
  • Up to 96 x 10Gb ports compressed into 2RU.

Supports 1Gb, 10Gb, 40Gb, 100Gb network and tool connections:

  • Flexible GigaVUE-HC2 Series modules offer: High-density port connections – up to 240Gbps per bay. Up to 8 100Gb (QSFP28), 24 40Gb (QSFP+), 96 1Gb/10Gb (SFP/SFP) ports in a single chassis.
  • Accepts all standard Gigamon SFP, SFP+, QSFP+, and QSFP28 transceivers including direct attach copper, active fiber cables, SR, LR, ER, and BiDi.

Create multi-chassis clusters:

  • Combine multiple GigaVUE H Series visibility nodes into a single cluster delivering “manage-as-one” capability and full “primary-secondary” management redundancy. Leverage optional GigaSMART applications and services from anywhere in the cluster.

Powerful manageability; GigaVUE-FM fabric manager:

  • Provides a versatile range of management options and capabilities including:
    Integrated command-line interface (CLI) and integrated graphical user interface (GUI)
  • Adding the optional GigaVUE-FM fabric manager provides:
    Customisable dashboards and wizards to view, configure, and manage the Visibility Fabric from a single pane-of-glass view.

REST API Support:

  • Programmatic access to capabilities in the Visibility Platform via REST APIs exposed from the fabric manager, GigaVUE-FM.
  • Allows implementation of Software-defined Visibility paradigm by system administrators.
  • Advanced integration with tools, controllers and other IT systems used in the infrastructure to enable rapid programmatic response to events detected.

Data center ready platform:

  • With front-to-back cooling delivered by a hot-swappable fan tray, redundant and multi-source, hot-swappable power trays offering AC and DC variants, the GigaVUE-HC2 node is ready for deployment in demanding data centre environments.
