F5-BIG-LTM-R2800 Local Traffic Manager

  • Double SSL throughput
  • Dedicated hardware compression engine
  • Flexible dual-tenant virtualization
  • Enhanced application-delivery performance
Key Features

F5 BIG-LTM-R2800 is a high-performance solution that deeply integrates the industry-leading Local Traffic Manager (LTM) software with the enhanced F5 R2800 hardware platform. Designed for growing enterprises with higher traffic volumes, greater encryption demands, or lightweight virtualization needs, it serves as a direct performance upgrade over the Big LTM-R2600.

  1. Double SSL Power
    15,000 hardware SSL TPS – twice the R2600, letting you serve twice as many users or cut latency in crypto-heavy e-commerce and finance workloads.
  2. Dedicated 15 Gbps Compression Engine
    Hardware-based compression keeps CPU cycles free for SSL, iRules, and other tasks, delivering consistently low latency under mixed workloads.
  3. Dual-Tenant Virtualization
    32 GB RAM and a faster CPU allow two fully isolated virtual ADC instances. Run prod and test side-by-side or serve two business units on one box.
  4. Enhanced Application Performance
    875 K L7 requests per second and 25 Gbps application throughput give LTM the headroom to run complex iRules while keeping mission-critical apps fast and stable.

FAQs

Q1: Are the LTM features identical on the F5-BIG-LTM-R2800 and r2600? What does the extra cost buy me?
A: Same LTM software, stronger box. The extra cost gives you double SSL TPS, 15 Gbps hardware compression, dual-tenant vCMP, and 32 GB RAM – real performance gains that keep apps fast and reliable.

Q2: How big is the impact of F5-BIG-LTM-R2800’s hardware compression?
A: Huge. Compression runs on a dedicated chip, so the CPU stays free for SSL and iRules. Under load, this prevents CPU contention and keeps performance rock-solid.

Q3: Can I run two separate LTM instances on the F5-BIG-LTM-R2800?
A: Yes. vCMP lets you create two isolated tenants – perfect for prod/test splits or multi-department ADC services – on one piece of hardware.
