Aspera Connect Server

Built upon Aspera Enterprise Server technology, the Aspera Connect Server is the ideal solution when files and directories are exchanged with a large number of users over the WAN.

With patented fasp™ transport at its core, the Aspera Connect Server delivers unmatched performance and includes all the exceptional transfer and user management capabilities of the industry-standard Enterprise Server.

Featuring a web-based directory listing that can be accessed from most standard browsers, the Aspera Connect Server lets authorised users upload and download data with the free, automatically-installed Aspera Connect web browser plug-in. Connections with Enterprise Servers, Point-to-point, Client and Mobile Uploader applications are also supported.
