css11501s performance

[unisys-jlee]

What is the performance different between css11501s and css11503 with SSL acceleration card especially in the "RSA operations per second" and "concurrent connections"? Do you have any documentations for descripting the css11501s performance?

[Gilles Dufour]

The SSL performance are the same since this is the same SSL blade in the 11501 and in the 11503.

The only difference is that for the 501, the chassis needs to be ordered with the SSL module already mounted internally.

Check the datasheet for performance numbers:

The SSL module delivers 1,000 SSL transactions per second and 250 Mbps of bulk encryption (ARC4).

Oh I see. Thanks very much.

Do you mean that the performance of 11501S = 11503+1*SSL module ?? And 11503 is better in the sense that it could expand to support at most 2 SSL module ? If YES, then 11501S could support 4000 RSA operations per second and 30000 concurrent connections. Right ?

[Gilles Dufour]

correct except that the number of concurrent connections is 40,000

Hi Giles,

I've been searching for comparison between the ssl module in the 65xx and the ssl-dc. Do you have a comparision table between the ssl-m versus ssl-dc, an SCA2?

thanks very much.
