Loss-free data acquisition in networks, and comprehensive data evaluation capabilities
caplon is a high-performance tracer operated on a specially-adapted 64-bit Linux system.
Special product adaptations and enhancements are available upon request.
consistec offers the caplon server in multiple hardware versions. Detailed performance descriptions are available in the respective technical specifications.
Our quality promise is based on comprehensive development know how in test systems, and many years of experience troubleshooting complex IT systems:
- For our caplon systems, we use quality components from selected name brand manufacturers.
- Our systems offer high availability through redundant design*.
- Our systems are particularly safe investments thanks to performance reserves and expansion capabilities.
- Hotplug components, RAID systems, and a structured design result in a system that is easy to maintain.

Did you know that ...
- ... conventional network cards are not suitable for reliable network analysis due to the packet loss at high data rates? This does not occur in regular client-server operation because the TCP/IP stack has many flow control capabilities, and their use prevents or compensates for packet loss.
- ... the currently popular hard drive systems with continuous saving of 2 GB/s are generally overextended?
- ... when using monitor ports in switches, only half the bandwidth is available for analysis, and faulty frames are not visible in the trace?
