With customizable, swappable module bays, Vision X scales with your needs without expanding its footprint.

Edge Computing is Driving Change in The Network

Devices and applications at the edge are flooding our networks with data — yet users are still unsatisfied.

They want more bandwidth and quicker connections.

The surge of data creates new demands that must be met with upgrades, updates, and changes to your network. Keysight's Vision X network packet broker is designed for growth and flexibility to meet your network requirements now and in the future. Maintain visibility and security at scale with Vision X.

Improve The ROI of Your Network Infrastructure

Read the eBook to learn how NPBs drive ROI.

It is vital to include an NPB like Vision X in your visibility architecture. One major benefit an NPB brings is an increase in return on investment (ROI) of your network infrastructure.

Built For Your Next-Generation Network

Maintain visibility as your data center evolves with the Vision X network packet broker. Next-generation technology upgrades are simple without replacing your existing security and monitoring tools.

Vision X enables you to see the data on your network. This gives you the information you need to make better business decisions and keep your network running smoothly today, tomorrow, and in the future.

Mobile Core Visibility With Vision X

Mobile network operators get customized visibility flows with highly-accurate subscriber detection and load balancing at scale. Find out more on the MobileStack page.

Vision X is IFC Compatible

The Vision X network packet broker is compatible with Ixia's Fabric Controller (IFC) technology — an SDx (software-defined everything) controller for device management. IFC is a highly available, resilient, and easy-to-use, intelligent monitoring platform that works across physical and virtual network environments to give you visibility through a single pane of glass.
