Features & Benefits
|
High-Availability Gigabit Switching for the LAN Core.
Designed for the demanding requirements at the core backbone of enterprise
networks, 3Com® Switch 4060 delivers a unique combination of performance,
availability, and flexibility. |
 |
The
switch's durable metal chassis—a compact, 2RU-high rack-mountable unit—is
equipped with 12 1000BASE-SX ports and six GBIC ports for backbone connectivity,
as well as six integrated 10/100/1000 ports for server connections.
Fault-tolerance features include modular, load-sharing, hot-swappable power
supplies; modular, hot-swappable fan trays; and hot-swappable GBIC transceivers.
You can install a second power supply for added power redundancy.
The 3Com Switch 4050 supports 3Com Gigabit Multilayer Switching software, which
offers feature-rich Layer 2 functionality, Layer 3 switching for IP networks,
and advanced traffic prioritisation and security capabilities to accommodate the
ever growing requirements of core Gigabit backbones.
-
3Com XRN™ (eXpandable
Resilient Networking) technology allows implementation of high availability
configurations using two interconnected Switch 4050s or Switch 4060s, scaling
the backbone to 48 wirespeed Gigabit Layer 3 switching ports (with purchase of
optional 3Com XRN Interconnect Kit, or GBIC Fabric Interconnect with GMS
Advanced Feature License)
-
Advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3
functionality—such as multicast filtering, enhanced QoS/CoS services, virtual
LANs, and multilayer traffic classification and prioritisation—provides
network-wide traffic control
-
3Com-developed ASIC
architecture delivers 56 Gbps multilayer switching capacity per unit, wire-speed
performance across all ports, and a forwarding rate of more than 41 million pps
-
Layer 3 switching
capabilities—such as as OSPF, IP unicast using static routes, RIP/RIPv2, and
CIDR—help enhance performance, provide network control and security, and enable
routing between VLANs (OSPF available with purchase of GMS Advanced Feature
License, 3C1770v4)
-
Support for high availability
software features such as Link Aggregation using 802.3.ad, Resilient links,
Spanning Tree and Rapid Spanning Tree (802.1w), seven groups of RMON, and e-mail
alerts
-
Security features like RADIUS
client support and Routed Access Control Lists protect sensitive network
information and ensure that users have access to authorized resources
-
Optional 1000BASE-SX,
1000BASE-T, 1000BASE-LX and GBIC-based expansion modules deliver four ports of
high-performance, feature-rich switching over copper or multimode fibre
-
3Com® Network Supervisor,
(60-day trial version included with the switch), offers discovery, mapping,
monitoring, and alerting for easy network administration.
