The WebMux family provides high performance server load balancing to fit a wide range of requirements and offers one of the industry’s lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).  WebMux’s capability, flexibility, simplicity, and scalability lets you easily create and manage many pools, or farms, of servers, for a wide range of applications, including Internet Web, FTP, email, Microsoft ® Office Communications Server 2007 & Office Live Communications Server 2005 (Tested & validated by Microsoft®), and Oracle® Application Server® 10g (Validated by Oracle).

WebMux Load Balancers are easily-administered network appliances that manage IP traffic to multiple servers on 10/100/1000 Ethernet LANs and multiple VLANs.  Enhanced reliability and  high availability of service is achieved through the use of a dedicated platform, a solid-state design with no spinning disks, and an optimized load balancing algorithm.  This approach uses minimal overhead and requires no software interaction or other resource contention.  The WebMux products are known for their ease of configuration and management (menu-driven LCD front panel, remote Web browser management supporting HTTP and HTTPS, as well as Telnet and SSH diagnostic capabilities).  WebMux pricing includes a three (3) year factory product warranty (parts & labor), three (3) year firmware updates, and three (3) years technical support to ensure lowest TCO.
