 "Radware Introduces Two New Alteon Switches")
Radware, a provider of integrated application delivery solutions for business-smart networking, has announced the expansion of its Alteon Application Switch product line with two new OnDemand switches, the Alteon 4408 and Alteon 4416. The Alteon 4-series is available less than one-year after Radware acquired Nortel’s layer 4-7 application switching business, and rounds-out the product suite together with the recently introduced Alteon 5412, which now offers complete application delivery throughput coverage up to 20 Gbps.
The Alteon 4-series, built on Radware’s on-demand infrastructure approach, enables Alteon customers to start with a certain bandwidth and application services to meet current operational needs, and then increase capacity and capabilities on a ‘pay-as-you-grow’ model.
Alteon 4408 and 4416 Specifications
Similar to other Alteon application switch models, the 4-series combines the Alteon Virtual Matrix Architecture (VMA) technology with Radware’s hardware platforms. The switches are designed and built as specialised, high-performance Layer 4-7 application delivery switches with backward compatibility. Extending throughput capacity by up to 4 Gbps, the Alteon 4408 and 4416 deliver high performance including 215K Layer 4 and 135K Layer 7 transactions per second.
They enable a broad range of performance traffic management and control services with six-Gigabit Ethernet (GE) and two small form-factor pluggable (SFP) ports on the Alteon 4408, and twelve GE, four SFP ports and dual, out-of-band management ports on the Alteon 4416. Both switches also offer a serial management port and a USB port for simplified software upgrades and recovery as well as redundant power supply configurations.
Trade-in Program
The company is offering attractive trade-in credits and a seamless upgrade path to current Alteon customers interested in the Alteon 4-series application switch.
