BIG-IP® Hardware
Get unmatched power with BIG-IP hardware
Our ground-breaking platforms deliver unmatched power, dramatically improving Layer 4-7 traffic throughput and providing better application delivery. F5's revolutionary TMOS architecture is at the heart of all BIG-IP platforms, efficiently isolating clients from the server-side flows to increase application performance and allow custom payload inspection and transformation capabilities with iRules.
BIG-IP is available on the VIPRION system:
 |
VIPRIONThe first application delivery controller that scales on demand. Add up to four performance blades to its chassis and scale your application delivery network as demands grow. With the highest levels of throughput and transactions per second of any platform on the market, this device is the ultimate application delivery controller for next-generation data center design. |
BIG-IP is available on these application switch platforms:
 |
BIG-IP 8900 SeriesThe BIG-IP 8900 is the fastest application switch on the market. With eight processors, hardware compression, and hardware SSL, the 8900 provides the foundation for a unified application delivery network. |
 |
BIG-IP 8800 SeriesThe BIG-IP 8800 utilizes symmetric multiprocessing across four processor cores. This technology allows BIG-IP performance to scale to four times the level of a single processor system and deliver unmatched levels of Layer 7 and SSL throughput, SSL transactions per second and compression performance on a single application switch. |
 |
BIG-IP 8400 SeriesThe BIG-IP 8400 provides a flexible platform that can scale to meet next-generation data center design. The Packet Velocity ASIC 10 (PVA 10) delivers industry-leading L4 throughput and DoS protection, allowing the core processor to focus on high-speed SSL and compression performance. |
 |
BIG-IP 6900 SeriesWith two dual-core processors as well as hardware SSL and compression, the BIG-IP 6900 has the performance to provide an integrated platform for application delivery. The BIG-IP 6900 can process up to 6 Gb/s of throughput to handle the most demanding applications. |
 |
BIG-IP 6800 SeriesWith the Packet Velocity ASIC 2 (PVA 2) for fast L4 throughput, and optional redundant power supplies, FIPS and compression hardware. The BIG-IP 6800 can handle more traffic throughput than the BIG-IP 6400. |
 |
BIG-IP 6400 SeriesThe BIG-IP 6400 provides a flexible platform for emerging application delivery networks, with its Packet Velocity ASIC 2 (PVA 2) for fast L4 throughput, optional redundant power supplies, and FIPS and NEBS certified hardware. |
 |
BIG-IP 3600 SeriesThe BIG-IP 3600 provides a high-performance, entry-level platform for organizations wanting to add integrated application delivery to their network, with options for advanced security and acceleration. |
 |
BIG-IP 3400 SeriesThe BIG-IP 3400 provides a high-performance, entry-level option for organizations wanting to add intelligent application delivery to their network. It can boast twice the traffic throughput of the BIG-IP 1500 with its integrated Packet Velocity ASIC 2 (PVA 2). |
 |
BIG-IP 1600 SeriesThe BIG-IP 1600 offers all the functionality of TMOS in a cost-effective, entry-level platform for intelligent application delivery. |
 |
BIG-IP 1500 SeriesThe BIG-IP 1500 offers all the functionality of TMOS in a cost-effective, entry-level platform for intelligent application delivery. |
BIG-IP WebAccelerator 4500
 |
BIG-IP 4500 SeriesThe BIG-IP WebAccelerator 4500 is sold exclusively for use with BIG-IP WebAccelerator software. Its dual-processor configuration, 8GB of RAM, and ground-breaking architecture combine to give users secure, reliable application access at high speeds under real-world conditions. |
