Quantis is a hardware random number generator exploiting an elementary quantum optics process to provide high quality randomness for cryptographic, gaming and other applications.
Quantis exists in four versions: a USB device, a PCI Express (PCIe) board (Legacy 4M & 16M and New 40M & 240M), a Quantis Appliance, and as a QRNG Chip. The product delivers best-in-class random bit rate of up to 232Mbps.
