As network traffic speeds and volumes increase organisations need insight and visibility of that data. The NEW PacketRAID 100G enables this with it's all-in-one packet capture network recorder. Providing you with its impressive high speed recording, playback and analysis capabilities.

Combining 10G, 25G, 40G or 100G network connectivity with generous storage volume, it readily forms the core of a comprehensive high-throughput capture and analysis system.

WIDE RANGE OF SIGNAL TYPES

Ethernet signals from 100GbE to 1GbE, including 100GbE RSFEC, OTN from OTU4 to OTU1 and SDH from STM64 to STM1 (STM1 on legacy cards)

OTU4 & 100G SNAP & ANALYSE

Capture full line rate signal samples for further off-line analysis, cyber security incident investigation, and network performance monitoring

RAW ANALYSIS oF OTU4 & 100G

Raw analysis upgraded to extract packets from any recorded OTU4 & 100GbE signals, at any level all the way down to 64k timeslots (e.g. 10 x 10GbE)

5-TUPLE PACKET FILTERING

Quickly apply up to 32 5-tuple filters to easily identify interesting signals at source  and gather statistics against each filter applied

OVERHEAD SIGNAL EXTRACTION

Stream overhead signals down to disk to enable in-depth inspection of engineering communication channels for in-depth network information

BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY

Easily enhance the capability of your existing PacketRAID recorders with a simple and cost effective upgrade

RECORD

• Supports Multiple Signal Speeds: Packet capture ports can support: ethernet at 10Gbps, 25Gbps, 40Gbps and also 100Gbps.

• Standards Based File Formats: Store captures as industry standard PCAP files. Enables captures to be viewed and analysed using conventional applications.

• Multi-port Record and Playback: All capture/replay ports are capable of operating independently in either record or playback mode.

ANALYSE

• High Performance Platform: Huge I/O and processing performance, combined with a large amount of RAM makes PacketRAID an ideal platform on which to analyse recordings once made.

• Comprehensive Metadata: Each recording has an associated metadata file, providing enriched technical information. It also includes additional text fields that can be configured to meet your specific requirements.

• Open Source Tools: PCAP files can be loaded into Arkime for: TCP session analysis, IP geolocation identification, AS breakdowns, filtering and searching.

REPLAY

• Flexible Playback: All recordings can also be replayed, making it an extremely flexible tool for testing.

• Configurable Replay: Options are available to change the replay of any captures. Currently selectable replay speeds at 100G and 10G Gbps rates.

• Concurrent Operations: The optimised platform ensures that recordings can continue to be made concurrently whilst stored signals are replayed.

INUITIVE GUI

• Informative Web GUI: The intuitive GUI gives you immediate access to a wealth of data including: signal type, protocols, data rates, power levels, and payload information.

• Graphs and Stats: Providing quick and easy access to both statistics and graphs (e.g. bit rates and packet rates). All stats are archived per port and per recording.

• Command Line and API: Allows multiple users to access the recorder at the same time. With the added bonus of remote control through any connected web browser or automation using scripting and JSON API calls.

HIGH PERFORMANCE OPEN PLATFORM

• High Speed Storage: Solid state disk RAID array optimised for sustained high throughput providing in excess of 100Gb/s read/write bandwidth.

• Accessible Storage: Standard Linux XFS file system. Stored data is both secure and accessible. Enabling authorised users access from anywhere, using NFS or CIFS sharing.

• Standard Linux: Running Alma Linux with full root access provided. PAM for user authentication and custom security lockdowns.

• High Spec: Dual 16-core AMD Epyc CPUs with 256GB ECC DDR4 RAM.

CUSTOM BUILD & CONFIGURATION

• Optical Inputs and Outputs: Supplied with between 2 to 8 ports, from 10G to 100G. Takes standard SFP, SFP+, SFP28 and QSFP optics in carrier.

• Flexible Storage: We will advise you in choosing the optimum storage capacity (20 - 180TB) based on your operational needs.

• Software Customisation: Install your own applications, utilities and analytics to tailor the platform for your requirements and environment.

• From 1 to 5 Year Comprehensive Warranty: Ensuring support and maintenance costs are included and are known from day one.
