SSL VPN specialist Aventail has released a new high end version of hardware designed to serve up to 2000 concurrent users and aimed at mid to large-size enterprises with hundreds to thousands of remote users as well as its service provider partners.

For companies with more than 100,000 users, the EX-2500 can support cluster configurations of up to eight-nodes with an external load balancer. Aventail claims more than eight years experience serving large enterprise customers through its own managed services and appliance business as well as through its many service provider partners, such as AT&T, BT Infonet, MCI and Sprint. It claims that its equipment holds a 95 percent share of the managed SSL-VPN services market.
