nano|engine™

Ultra compact nano|engine appliances are tailored for providing full application control with unmatched performance/price ratio in broadband branch offices.

The nano|engine devices target broadband branch offices and provide:

  • Application aware, per connection Control and dynamic QoS for public and private application flows to guarantee an excellent and stable Quality of Experience to each user;
  • End-to-end visibility of application performance of each flow with comprehensive KPIs and application quality scores;
  • Dynamic WAN path selection among up to 3 networks for optimized control of multi-attached branches, local Internet breakouts and hybrid networks.


Self-managed, nano|engines are installed at the edge locations of the WAN, typically between the CPE router and branch office LAN. Fully “Plug and Play,” nano|engines require no on-site configuration. They operate under control of the central management software, SALSA. Customers simply need to plug the nano in, and configuration and provisioning are managed by SALSA.

The nano|engine family fits particularly well in B to C sectors like retail, finance and hospitality, where slow response times to access customer data or delays in processing an order lead to customer dissatisfaction and loss of productivity. Nano|engines’ ability to guarantee application performance prevents any brownouts and protects the business.




The nano|2 addresses branch offices with up to 20 users and 4 Mbps while the nano|5 targets branch offices with up to 50 users and 20 Mbps.
