TACLANE E-Series High Speed Encryption Solutions (100Gb-1.6Tb)

COMING SOON – IT FRIENDLY, MODULAR, 100-400 GB HIGH ASSURANCE SECURITY FOR THE ENTERPRISE

The TACLANE® E-Series Ethernet encryptor product portfolio is designed to bring high assurance security into the enterprise with a focus on adaptability, availability and maintainability. Through a modular foundation, the TACLANE Adaptable Security Platform (ASP) enables organizations to right size their security solution for today, while offering scalability to meet evolving needs.  

Designed to align and scale with IT ecosystems and requirements for next generation multi-domain battlespace, the TACLANE-ASP supports up to two user replaceable crypto modules that support rapid expansion for future capabilities like increased bandwidth, security features, and/or data personalities: 

  • TACLANE-ES100 (KGV-185B) Crypto Module is Ethernet Data Encryption Cryptographic Interoperability Specification (EDE-CIS) compliant and provides up to 100 Gb/s full-duplex (200 Gb/s aggregate) throughput per module. 
  • TACLANE-ES400 (KGV-185C) is EDE-CIS compliant and provides up to 400 Gb/s full-duplex throughput per module.

With support for up to two crypto modules, the TACLANE-ASP provides the capacity to support 200 Gb/s - 800 Gb/s full-duplex (400 Gb/s – 1.6 Tb/s aggregate) throughput in a 1U rack slot

The TACLANE E-Series Ethernet encryptors provide flexibility to support both Key Management Infrastructure (KMI) OTNK and Pre-Placed Keys (PPK) to allow for interoperable communications in disconnected networks.
