Breakthrough Performance Delivering Best Quality of Experience

Carriers and Internet service providers experience massive growth of Internet, video and mobile data traffic. The Alteon 10000 is designed to meet these challenging capacity growths while delivering significant business benefits for carriers, mobile data mega-pops, Internet service providers and large enterprises data centers that require a high-end ADC solution.

Powered by a state-of-the-art, custom-designed hardware platform, the Alteon 10000 ensures the best user experience and fastest response time for mission-critical applications, resulting in effective, continuous business operation. The Alteon 10000 provides up to 80Gbps of scalable throughput capacity while delivering breakthrough performance.

The beating heart of Alteon 10000 is the Virtual Matrix Architecture (VMA), a one-of-a-kind technology that unleashes the power of Alteon’s next-generation proprietary platforms. VMA is a fast, robust, and flexible architecture embedding multi-CPU and multi-core components, which leverages the entire system’s capacity while providing the parallel performance of distributed processing resulting in linear layer 4-7 scalability.

ATCA Chassis and Carrier-Grade Reliability

The Alteon 10000 is built upon Advanced Telecommunications Computing Architecture (ATCA) chassis to meet the most demanding requirements and regulations. With 15 ports of 10GE / GE (SFP+ pluggable optics) and additional 8 ports of 1GE (copper), the Alteon 10000 provides extensive ports offering and a wide set of connectivity alternatives. The 6-slots chassis of Alteon 10000 accommodates 4 payload blades, each providing 20Gbps of throughput. All chassis blades are hot swappable, allowing blades replacements without stopping the entire chassis. In addition, the Alteon 10000 chassis includes fabric switch blades for internal communication, as well as a Shelf Manager module which monitors and controls the low-level aspects of the platform’s blades and components, including temperature monitoring, fan-speed control, alarm I/O, and power management.

The Alteon 10000 delivers carrier-grade reliability required by the most demanding carrier application environments. It features reliable, custom-made hardware coupled with embedded components providing high MTBF with three AC/DC load sharing, hot-swappable power supplies and two hot-swappable fan trays. It is NEBS 3 compliant, complies with the strictest regulations, and is certified by the most up-to-date hardware and networking standards.

Intelligently Embedding Radware’s ‘OnDemand’ Infrastructure Approach

By embracing Radware’s OnDemand approach, you only pay for the exact capacity currently required by your network, which prevents over-spending on the initial solution. Additional processing blades, throughput capacity, acceleration capabilities and application-aware services can be added on demand to meet new business requirements – with no forklift upgrade of the device and no restart. The OnDemand approach enables you to overcome capacity planning challenges and reduces the risk associated with data center growth for best investment protection as capacity and services can be added when needed.

Powered by Alteon OS

Alteon 10000 utilizes the Alteon OS, enabling you to leverage its solid, powerful capabilities including CLI, traffic policies and configuration. As a result, you can immediately enjoy Alteon’s renowned ease of operation and stability ─ by reducing operational hassle and costs related to network integration, operation scripts, network topology considerations and management ─ while at the same time, obtaining new benefits.

5-Year Longevity Guarantee Coupled with World-Class Support

Radware exclusively provides Alteon 10000 customers with a 5-year platform longevity guarantee. This enables extending the application delivery project lifetime, which directly translates into reduced TCO and higher ROI.
