Description

F5 Part Number: BIG-IP5000s
F5 BIG-IP 5000s Application Delivery Controller
The new advanced mid-range BIG-IP 5000 series ADC appliances have best-in-class performance to unify application delivery in a 1U, cost-effective platform. The BIG-IP 5200v has leading L7 and SSL performance while offering hardware accelerated DDoS mitigation, hardware compression, and 80 Plus Gold certified high efficiency power supplies. Up to 1.5M L7 RPS, Up to 700K L4 CPS RPS, Up to 21,000 TPS (2K keys) and 12 Gbps bulk encryption, Up to 40M SYN cookies per second for large-scale DDoS protection, Up to 4 vCMP instances included Ideal for midsize enterprises and service providers.
F5 BIG-IP Application Delivery Controller (ADC) 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.
BIG-IP hardware includes:
• SSL hardware acceleration—Offload costly SSL processing and accelerate key exchange and bulk encryption with best-in-market SSL performance.
• Hardware compression—Cost-effectively offload traffic compression processing from your servers to improve page load times and reduce bandwidth utilization.
• OneConnect™ connection pooling—Aggregate millions of TCP requests into hundreds of server-side connections. Increase server capacity and ensure requests are handled efficiently.
• Embedded Packet Velocity Acceleration (ePVA)—Provide high-performance L4 throughput and denial-of-service (DoS) protection. ePVA uses field-programmable gate array (FPGA) technology tightly integrated with TMOS and software to deliver:
• High performance interconnect between Ethernet ports and processors.
• L4 offload, enabling leading throughput and reduced load on software.
• Hardware-accelerated SYN flood protection.
• More than 20 DoS attacks detected and mitigated in hardware.
• Predictable performance for low latency protocols such as Financial Information eXchange (FIX).
