BIG-IP System Hardware: Deliver More Applications for More Users

BIG-IP System
HARDWARE DATASHEET
Deliver More Applications for More Users
BIG-IP® Application Delivery Networking platforms can manage even the heaviest traffic
loads at both layer 4 and layer 7. By merging high performance switching fabric, specialized
hardware, and advanced software, F5 provides the flexibility to make in-depth application
decisions without introducing bottlenecks.
With the high performance you get from BIG-IP platforms, you can consolidate devices—
saving management costs, electricity, space, and cooling—and still have room to grow.
Key benefits
Consolidate your infrastructure with
purpose-built hardware
BIG-IP hardware platforms are designed
specifically for application delivery. One device
can be configured for server load balancing,
global data center load balancing, web
application firewall, HTTP acceleration, spam
filtering, and WAN optimization.
Offload application servers
BIG-IP systems feature high-performance SSL
and compression hardware as well as advanced
connection management to remove processingintensive tasks from application servers and
use these resources more efficiently.
Secure your network
Instantly add a layer of security with BIG-IP
systems, providing default deny security
and a full packet filter engine that can limit
access in a very granular way.
Reduce your operating costs
Spend less time on configuration, upgrades,
and maintenance with the simple-to-manage
BIG-IP hardware, featuring out-of-band
management, front-panel management, warm
upgrades, remote boot, and USB support.
Maximize uptime
Ensure your critical infrastructure is built
on reliable hardware with hot-swappable
components, redundant power supplies,
redundant fans, compact flash, multi-boot
support, and always-on management.
