Omnipliance Overview

Omnipliance Core - Distributed Network Recorder

The WildPackets Omnipliance Core is a turn-key hardware and software solution that gives network engineers unprecedented, real-time and post-capture visibility into remote network segments. Each Omnipliance network appliance runs WildPackets’ OmniEngine and sends real-time analytics and monitoring results to a central OmniPeek console. The Omnipliance is an ideal data recorder for network forensics applications, such as incident response operations and policy compliance investigations.

The Omnipliance is designed for rapid, convenient deployment. The system can be installed, configured, and online in under an hour. An LCD and keypad on the front panel enable network engineers to enter configuration information such as IP addresses without the use of a keyboard or monitor.

The Omnipliance makes it easy for organizations to deploy WildPackets’ OmniPeek Product Family at every network location in an enterprise. By installing Omnipliances in data centers and wiring closets, network engineers gain immediate real-time visibility into local and remote network segments – without any lengthy or costly network reconfigurations or upgrades.

Omnipliance Core Adapters Options

OmniAdapter 10G

WildPackets’ OmniAdapter 10G is a high performance one-port adapter that has been optimized for monitoring and inspecting traffic on 10 Gigabit Ethernet network. OmniAdapter 10G is available in PCI-X or PCI-E with 1x850nm MFF XFP or; 1x1310nm SMF XFP optical transceivers with LC connectors.

OmniAdapter

OmniAdapter is a PCI-X card that supports up to 2 full-duplex or 4 half-duplex connections. Taking advantage of a PCI-X bus that clocks up to 133 MHz, the OmniAdapter provides high-performance connectivity for monitoring and troubleshooting Gigabit networks.

The OmniAdapter can be figured during manufacturing to support multiple configurations of SX, LX, ZX, TX or copper (Ethernet). It’s available with Four SFP cages, Four RJ45 10/100/1000Base-T ports, Two RJ45 10/100/1000Base-T ports and two SFP cages, or Four SFP cages for 1000Base-SX or 1000Base-LX optical Ethernet, and one RJ45 port for 1000Base-T copper.
