Open-Source Network Equipment

Routers, switches, and servers are fundamental to ensuring the operational integrity and security of your infrastructure. NobleConsul supports you in establishing reliable, auditable systems and applications, guiding you from foundational setup through to high-level strategic planning.

Substituting proprietary hardware with standard commodity equipment

By leveraging well-tested commodity hardware, we construct infrastructure that utilises the same software and hardware standards as the rest of your environment. Basic servers, desktop computers, or mini-PCs can function effectively as routers or switches.

We configure standard Linux distributions, which your engineering teams are likely already familiar with, to operate as switches, routers, WiFi hotspots, or NAS file storage solutions. This approach allows us to match the performance levels of top-tier proprietary and custom silicon systems.

Auditability

Accessing a switch will utilise the same authorization and authentication software as any other server or desktop. This eliminates the need to configure and maintain separate teams for networking and systems administration.

Because all software components are open-source, we can audit and tailor them to meet your specific requirements.

Freedom from geo-political pressures and vendor lock-in

Since the software runs on any commodity equipment, you are not dependent on specific vendor software or hardware. If hardware from one supplier becomes unavailable, you can easily transition to an alternative vendor, provided the device is supported by Linux.
