F5 Product offerings

The BIG-IP products deliver high availability, 

improved performance, application security, 

and access control, all in one unit. A single 

BIG-IP device can do the work of a dozen 

single-purpose products. More importantly, 

it can do that work in an effi cient, cohesive 

manner that is easier to manage and adapt as 

business and technology needs change. 

 (These modules can also 

be run as standalone appliances)

The BIG-IP LTM allows organizations to 

ensure quality of service and manageability, 

apply business policies and rules to content 

delivery, support increasing traffi c volumes, 

deliver their applications securely, enjoy 

operational effi ciency and cost control,
