Napatech network acceleration solutions are purpose-built to deliver fast, reliable deployment options for customers wanting to integrate their own unique analysis software through the support of a REST API and industry-standard PCAP.

Solves the limitations of standard server NICs – Napatech NACs allow for the merging of data from multiple ports into a single, time-ordered analysis stream. They support 1-32 PCAP interfaces using intelligent hardware flow distribution to allow PCAP applications to scale to higher packet rates with no packet loss. Capable of running up to 32 copies of a PCAP application simultaneously, NACs allow developers to scale performance parameters to handle more packets without any software modifications.
NAC1-4 adds real-time line rate performance to PCAP solutions – Provides full packet capture and analysis of network data at 4 x 1Gbps with zero packet loss. Additional features include precise hardware time stamping, time synchronization and CPU load distribution based on different packet header criteria.
20GB and 40GB network acceleration – The ArrowLink webstore also lists the 2-port and 4-port 10Gbps accelerators, designed to provide full packet capture and analysis of network data at 20Gbps and 40Gbps.

Walther Johannessen, senior vice president, global marketing, Napatech, said:
"Our technology provides an alternative to the standard server network interface cards. Adding the NAC1-4 to the ArrowLink Webstore enhances our product offering by providing a powerful alternative for the large and growing open-source community, enabling them to reach levels of performance and line rate precision at 1G, 20G and 40G speeds."
