As the performance upgrade to F5-BIG-BT-R10600 in the r10000 series, the F5-BIG-BT-R10800 unlocks stronger encryption and processing capacity while sharing the same carrier-grade hardware platform. Its core advantages lie in providing more vCPU cores for business processing (28 vs. 24) and higher SSL performance (150K vs. 115K TPS). These advantages enable the F5-BIG-BT-R10800 to run LTM, AWF, AFM, and APM at heavier concurrency without contention, making it the choice for large enterprises, financial institutions, and cloud service providers that have outgrown the R10600 tier but don’t yet need flagship R10900 capacity.
F5-BIG-BT-R10800 Key Features
Carrier-Grade Reliability in One Box
Consolidating LTM, AWF, AFM, and APM onto a single device demands uncompromising uptime. The BT-R10800 includes standard RAID1 dual drives and dual hot-swappable power supplies, eliminating single points of failure for continuous multi-service operation.
Flagship-Tier Security Performance
150,000 SSL TPS and 80Gbps dedicated hardware compression let the BT-R10800 handle heavy encrypted traffic, deep WAF inspection, and APM authentication simultaneously without throughput loss—30% more SSL headroom than the R10600 tier.
Higher-Density Resource Consolidation
With 28 business-dedicated vCPUs and 256GB memory, the BT-R10800 supports more concurrent vCMP tenants and heavier per-service workloads than the R10600, letting you consolidate more legacy appliances onto one platform without a flagship-tier price jump.
High-Capacity Core Networking
4x100G and 16x25G ports plus 160M max concurrent connections give the BT-R10800 the headroom to serve as a core aggregation point for large data centers, absorbing traffic spikes that would saturate the R10600 tier.

Can the F5-BIG-BT-R10800 act as a security gateway for a large cloud provider?
Absolutely. With 150K SSL TPS, 160M SYN cookie protection, and the full AWF/AFM/APM suite, it is designed to be a high-performance, multi-service security gateway for the most demanding cloud environments.
How does the extra vCPU count (28 vs. 24) on the BT-R10800 benefit me?
The extra vCPUs provide more dedicated processing power for your business services. In a multi-tenant (vCMP) environment, this means you can create more, or more powerful, virtual ADCs. When running multiple modules, it provides more headroom to ensure all services run smoothly without contention.
