Case Study
Defense contractor gains best-of-breed capture & playback solution
To deliver a high-performance capture and playback solution for a major defense contractor, Axellio integrated Napatech’s FPGA SmartNIC hardware and advanced software into its FabricXpress Platform. Napatech's specialized onboard software was critical to meeting the contractor's stringent requirements, enabling sustained 100 Gbps traffic capture to disk for over 60 minutes. The software also drove nanosecond-precision traffic replay and optimized data distribution across the PCIe bus. By offloading these intense processing tasks from the host system, Napatech's software-driven acceleration freed up architecture headroom. This allowed the contractor to seamlessly add GPUs and specialty cards, ensuring the agility and precise visibility required for complex defense applications.
