Ordering Information

The VIPRION 4400 Series system provides you with the flexibility and feature-rich capabilities of F5 products on a powerful and highly-extensible hardware platform. With this platform, you install and configure multiple F5 products using hot-swappable blades. This provides you with the ability to add, remove, or change the platform’s configuration to best fit your network. Many components are available for you to add, remove, or change including the blades, power supplies, fan tray, LCD panel, and more. This configuration allows for an extremely robust and flexible system that can manage large amounts of application traffic, and remain operational even if one of its components goes offline.

VIPRION platforms include two types of components: blades, which provide the hardware and software needed to manage network traffic, and a chassis, which houses the blades.The chassis is the housing unit that contains all of the components necessary for the VIPRION 4400 Series platform to operate effectively.

The VIPRION 4400 Series includes two chassis models: the VIPRION C4400 and the VIPRION C4480. The two chassis models appear identical, with the exception of the model number on the front. The VIPRION C4480 is designed to support higher bandwidth blades, such as B4300 and B4400 Series blades.

The VIPRION C4400 and C4480 chassis and B4100, B4200, B4300, and B4400 Series blades are available in DC-powered Network Equipment-Building System (NEBS) compliant versions. For a system to be completely NEBS-compliant, you must use a NEBS-compliant chassis and blades.
