Datacryptor® 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps Ethernet Layer 2 Version 4.4 encryptors with multipoint option deliver superior performance and flexibility, enabling units to operate in both secure point-to-point and fully-meshed configurations. Using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm with 256-bit key length, the units deliver maximum encrypted throughput in real-time, with minimal latency.
The Datacryptor Ethernet Layer 2 encryptors are now designed for point-to-point and multipoint high-speed applications where maximum throughput and low latency are required. These scenarios typically involve data replication requirements in support of BC/DR applications. Today's digital environment is distributed over vast networks that transcend physical boundaries, often crossing national borders as part of routine daily operations. Typical applications of Datacryptor Layer 2 include:
- Dark fiber point-to-point interconnections
- Point-to-point connections over switched networks
- Multipoint connections over meshed networks
- DWDM transfer networks for passive multiplexing
Key features include:
- AES 256 with automatic key exchange.
- FIPS 140-2 Level 3 and Common Criteria EAL 3 certification.
- Multiple modes of operation.
- Bulk (Frame) Mode.
- Tunnel Mode
- Clear Header Extended LAN/VLAN Mode.
- Centralised management.
- AC and DC (48V) power supplies
- Dual redundant power supplies (1Gbps model)
- Range of fibre and copper physical interfaces
