4x1 GbE NEBS Adapter for In-Line Network Analysis

Intelligent 4 x 1 Gigabit Network Adapter for in-line security applications
Adapter: NT4E-4 PCIe

NT4E NEBS In-Line Adapter


The NT4E-NEBS In-Line Adapter is designed for Telecom inline packet analysis applications, which require compliance with NEBS recommendations. 
 

Intelligent In-Line Adapter for Operation under Extreme Conditions

The NT4E-NEBS provides the same high performance and feature set as the NT4E In-Line Adapter, but features enhanced hardware capable of operating under extreme conditions with high reliability.
 

Compliant with Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) for Telecom

The NT4E-NEBS In-line Adapter is compliant with Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) Level 3 design guidelines as well as extended requirements from major US Telecom carriers. 


NEBS compliant In-Line Adapter in Standard Servers

Napatech NEBS compliant network adapters in NEBS compliant Standard Servers provide a high-performance and reliable, yet cost-effective development platform for Telecom-grade network monitoring, analysis, test and optimization systems. This allows TEMS (Telecom Equipment Manufacturers) to quickly develop and certify higher performance systems.
 

Key In-line Features

  • Data merging
  • Frame decoding
  • Filtering
  • UDP/TCP/IP CRC check and generation
  • Line-speed local retransmit at zero host CPU load
 
These features enable a significant frame processing off-load for any host system. 
 

Multi-CPU buffering

The Napatech multi-CPU buffering feature enables data processing on 32 CPU cores.
 

Minimal CPU Load

The NT4E In-line Adapters are ideal for 4 Gbps applications that require hardware acceleration with maximum throughput and minimal CPU load. Layer 2 to 4 traffic analysis, filtering, OS bypass and balanced multi-CPU traffic processing are some of the very advanced features, which ensure that all relevant traffic is quickly transferred to the appropriate application without impacting CPU performance.
 

Transparent In-Line device

A frame can be retransmitted with the same Ethernet CRC and IFG as received, enabling the in-line device to be 100% transparent.
 

Electrical and Optical Gigabit Interfaces

The NT4E In-line Adapters support a total of 4 Ethernet ports in 2 different configurations as either 4 electrical or 4 optical gigabit interfaces.
