Allot Adds 10GE Mid-Range DPI - Can it Compete with Procera's 8920?


Allot Communications has recently added a new device to its entry-mid range appliance product line - the NetEnfocer 6000, with 16 Gbps throughput and 10GE interfaces.

The new product will probably compete with the Procera PacketLogic™ 8920 (see "Procera's New 25 Gbps/RU Device" - here), with which Procera has won a number of significant service provider projects ($2M, US ILEC - here, $1.5M, US MSO - here,  Multi $M, ME MSO - here).
