IBM Aspera Faspex and the Connect Browser Plug-In
Transfers initiated in the IBM Aspera Faspex web application are conducted using the IBM Aspera Connect Browser Plug-in. The Connect Plug-In is an install-on-demand web browser plug-in that facilitates high-speed uploads and downloads with an Aspera transfer server.
The Connect Install Dialog
When a user first logs in, Faspex checks if the Connect has
been installed on their browser. If they have an outdated version or do not have the plug-in
installed, Faspex prompts the users to download and install the
plug-in.
Clicking Download latest version connects the user to Aspera's CloudFront CDN from which they can download the Connect installer.
