High-Speed Packet Capture and Network Visibility at Scale
Gain full visibility into high-speed networks without packet loss
As Ethernet and IP networks scale to multi-gigabit speeds, traditional monitoring tools struggle to keep up. PacketScan™ HD from GL Communications is a high-density network monitoring appliance designed to monitor live network traffic in real time, delivering lossless packet capture, deep protocol analysis, and scalable recording across high-speed Ethernet links. The solution is compact and portable, making it easy to transport and deploy across labs, field sites, and live network environments.
Designed for telecom operators, enterprises, data centers, and OEM labs, PacketScan™ HD enables engineers to monitor millions of packets and thousands of concurrent voice and video calls in real time—without impacting live network traffic.
Why PacketScan™ HD?
PacketScan™ HD is engineered for scenarios where traffic density, accuracy, and scalability are critical. It integrates high-performance capture hardware with the PacketScan™ software suite, delivering a unified platform for packet capture, recording, and advanced analytics—even under sustained high-traffic conditions.
