A multinational manufacturing company deploys the WS-SSC-600 Catalyst 6500 IPSec module Carrier Card in its core routers to establish hardware-accelerated IPsec tunnels between 120 branch offices and two global headquarters. By offloading encryption/decryption to the Catalyst 6500 IPSec module, the organization achieves sustained 2 Gbps throughput per tunnel, zero impact on routing performance and end-to-end data integrity. Outcome: secure, high-performance connectivity that meets corporate compliance mandates and supports real-time production data synchronization.
A regional healthcare provider integrates the WS-SSC-600 Catalyst 6500 IPSec module Carrier Card into its core Catalyst 6500 switches to secure patient records and imaging data replicated between two primary data centers. The module’s dedicated crypto engine delivers sub-millisecond latency on IPsec tunnels while ensuring AES-256 encryption and FIPS 140-2 compliance. Outcome: robust, low-latency inter-site connectivity that safeguards PHI, accelerates electronic health record access and meets stringent regulatory requirements.
A national retail chain leverages the WS-SSC-600 Catalyst 6500 IPSec module Carrier Card as a high-capacity encryption off-loader in its regional distribution hubs. Integrated into an SD-WAN overlay, the module secures thousands of store-to-hub IPsec tunnels and encrypts traffic to AWS and Azure cloud services. Outcome: simplified centralized policy enforcement, 3× improved VPN throughput versus software encryption and reduced MPLS costs by 40%, while maintaining PCI DSS compliance for payment data.
