CN8000 Multi-slot Encryptor

Senetas Corporation Ltd, distributed by Gemalto NV (SafeNet) and ID Quantique SA - FIPS 140 #3482

historicalLevel 3

The CN8000 is a high-speed multi-slot hardware encryption platform that secures data over optical Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks. The CN8000 supports up to 10 high speed encryption slots. Each slot can be configured by the user to support 1-10Gb/s Ethernet or 1-4Gb/s Fibre Channel. The CN8000 module contains removable SFP+ transceivers to provide flexibility in connecting to the physical network. Data privacy is provided by FIPS approved AES CFB and CTR algorithms. GCM is also available for applications that demand authentication.
