The Cisco IPSec VPN Shared Port Adapter, part number SPA-IPSEC-2G, is a high-performance cryptographic accelerator designed to support IPSec encryption and decryption operations. This shared port adapter (SPA) is engineered to provide robust and secure communication for enterprise-level virtual private networks (VPNs), allowing secure data transfer over public and private networks. With a focus on maintaining high-speed encryption, it offers a balance between performance and security for network infrastructures that require reliable, secure connections over IP-based technology.
The SPA-IPSEC-2G integrates seamlessly into compatible Cisco networking equipment and is designed to offload encryption tasks from the router, allowing routers to maintain network efficiency and responsiveness while encrypting vast amounts of VPN traffic. Supporting a wide range of cryptographic protocols, it provides secure VPN services for multiple simultaneous users. Additionally, it is capable of handling up to 2 Gbps of IPSec encrypted traffic, ensuring that the network remains productive even with high traffic volumes.
This SPA also supports hardware-based encryption, which significantly reduces the load on the system's main CPU, contributing to better overall system performance. The cryptographic accelerator ensures that encrypted traffic does not compromise throughput or degrade the network’s performance. Furthermore, the portability of this adapter means that it can be easily integrated into various Cisco routers or networking devices, making it a key component in large enterprise networks requiring VPN solutions.
