The VERSAstream™ SPAN Port Regenerator + Aggregation can combine data from multiple SPAN ports into one stream of data. Multiple devices, such as intrusion detection systems, protocol analyzers, or network probes can receive the aggregated data with just one network interface card (NIC).

With multiple monitoring ports, the VERSAstream™ SPAN Port Regenerator + Aggregation can receive several copies of a full-duplex stream of aggregated data . This allows different monitoring and analysis devices to collect data from the same network segments at the same time, eliminating contention for access to critical SPAN ports.

Security, troubleshooting, and management personnel can all work together instead of fighting over tools and access to SPAN ports, without having to reconfigure SPAN ports, disconnect them, or bring them down in any way.

The VERSAstream™ enhances your security because it allows you to see 100% of your network traffic. Total visibility means no missed packets and no chance of missing a network attack due to port over subscription, traffic overflow, or many of the problems associated with traditional monitoring methods.

Aggregation offers a complete view of the traffic. Instead of collecting and manually assembling trace or log files from separate tools on separate network segments, the VERSAstream™ can easily let security and analysis tools collect all the data they need in a single file. In security applications, events and false positives are recorded fewer times. In all applications, data can be analyzed faster than ever, which increases uptime and saves money.

Connecting multiple network devices to the same network link provides a countless number of new security applications and processes and even affords the capabilities of setting up redundant tools.

• Connect any compatible devices (protocol analyzers, probes, intrusion detection system, more) for permanent simultaneous monitoring of multiple tapped full-duplex links or SPAN ports - eliminates the need for network connectors to be disconnected and connected each time a segment needs to be monitored
• Multiple monitor ports allow multiple devices to simultaneously monitor the tapped links or SPAN ports, providing extended security and analysis options while eliminating contention for network access
• Save money on recurring licensing fees and maximize your ROI by deploying fewer network devices
• Redundant power supply insures seamless monitoring even if the main power source is unavailable
• Simple plug-and-play solution - requires no additional configuration or configuration of external monitoring devices
• Easy to install and 1U" space saving design
