GigaVUE H Series and TA Series Overview

The GigaVUE H Series and TA Series delivers performance and intelligence in each of its Traffic Visibility Fabric nodes, with port density and speeds that scale to your needs, from 1Gb to 100Gb. With an intuitive web-based interface (H-VUE or GigaVUE-FM) and a powerful CLI based GigaVUE-OS, the Visibility Fabric is able to replicate, filter, and selectively forward network traffic to monitoring, management, and security tools. The GigaVUE-FM provides a web-based centralized interface to configure and manage all of your GigaVUE nodes through a single pane of glass.

The GigaVUE H Series and TA Series nodes include the following models that run GigaVUE-OS:

GigaVUE-HD8
GigaVUE-HD4
GigaVUE-HC1
GigaVUE-HC2
GigaVUE-HC3
GigaVUE-HB1
GigaVUE-TA1GigaVUE-TA10
GigaVUE-TA10A
GigaVUE-TA40
GigaVUE-TA100
GigaVUE-TA100-CXP
GigaVUE-TA200
Certified Traffic Aggregation White Boxes

Notes on TA Series Nodes
A twenty-four (24) port GigaVUE-TA10 version, called the GigaVUE-TA10A is available with only the first 24 1Gb/10Gb ports enabled. A license is needed to expand a GigaVUE-TA10A to include all 48 1Gb/10Gb ports as well as the four (4) 40Gb ports.
On the GigaVUE-TA100, only the first 16 out of 32 100Gb ports are enabled. Two port licenses are available to enable an additional 8 or 16 ports to expand from 16 ports to 24 ports or from 16 ports to 24 ports and then to 32 ports.
The ports on the GigaVUE-TA100 can be used as network, tool, or hybrid ports.
