The GigaVUE-2404 is a high density Data Access Switch for 10GbE centric data center networks. Housed in a low profile 2U chassis, the GigaVUE-2404 aggregates, replicates and filters traffic flows across multiple passive monitoring tools. It is a powerful 10GbE tool aggregator capable of full line rate performance and transfer latency of only 6 μsec.
The GigVUE-2404’s modular design allows network managers to deploy the exact number of ports necessary to fit their requirements. The base chassis houses eight 10 GbE ports and four 1GbE and scales to a maximum of twenty-four 10GbE ports.
Multiple GigaVUE 2404 data access switches can be stacked together or with existing GigaVUE-MP or GigaVUE-420 chassis into a much bigger virtual GigaVUE fabric of over 200 ports, running in either a master-slave or star configuration. GigaVUE 2404 switches are designed for compatibility with traffic coming from either of Gigamon’s other pior generation data access switches the GigaVUE 420 or the GigaVUE-MP.
