The Unity EdgeConnect L is a 1U rack-mountable platform that serves to build an SD-WAN fabric using Zero Touch Provisioning. It supports MPLS, 4G/LTE, and Internet-based hybrid WAN data paths and a control plane that is automated and secured by the Unity Orchestrator software to provide policy-based virtual network segmentation and acceleration of on-premise and SaaS cloud applications. Key features of the EdgeConnect L include high availability through power supply and storage redundancy, solid state drive-based network memory (all the appliances use SSDs) for application acceleration, and dual 1/10 Gbps Short Reach (SR) fiber optical ports, making it an ideal platform for data center and large hub environments with typical WAN bandwidth from 1 to 5 Gbps.
