F5-BIG-BT-R5800: For Large Enterprises Needing to Run Multiple High-load Services Concurrently
The F5-BIG-BT-R5800 is the high-performance solution within the R5000 “Best Bundle” lineup. Compared to F5-BIG-BT-R5600, it offers a significant leap in licensed hardware capabilities—33% more SSL TPS, 50% more business vCPUs (18 vs. 12), and over 2x the tenant capacity (18 vs. 8). These core upgrades make the R5800 ideal for enterprises, service providers, and financial institutions looking to consolidate high-load services onto a single, powerful platform.
F5-BIG-BT-R5800 Key Features
High-Performance Service Integration Platform
Boasting 95Gbps throughput and 18 vCPUs, it delivers exceptional performance even with all Best Bundle modules (LTM, AWF, AFM, APM) active. It ensures stable, high-efficiency operation for load balancing, web security, and access control under extreme traffic.
Advanced Concurrent Security Processing
With 80K SSL TPS and a dedicated 40Gbps hardware compression engine, it offloads encryption and compression tasks from the CPU. This allows full processing power to focus on threat detection (AWF) and secure user access (APM), ensuring top-tier security and performance—without compromise.
Ultra-Dense IT Resource Consolidation
With 18 business vCPUs and 18-tenant support, it stands as a premier consolidation platform. It lets you replace multiple high-performance legacy appliances with one unit—enhancing performance while slashing data center costs and complexity.
Core Network-Ready 100G Interfaces
With two built-in 100G/40G QSFP+ ports, the R5800 is ready for backbone connectivity. As traffic increases due to service consolidation, these ports ensure that your “all-in-one gateway” will not become a throughput bottleneck—keeping your network future-ready and investment protected.
