Enterprise-Class Core Switching
The 3Com® Switch 40x0 Family of switches are high-performance, wire-speed, Layer
3 10/100/1000 switches, with dual redundant "hot swappable" power supplies and
fans. These 24-port switches are optimized for building aggregation, with
flexibility and expansion provided through SFP (Small Form Factor Plug-in) or
GBIC transceivers. All of these switches optionally support
3Com's XRN™ technology - a unique core solution delivering distributed
resilience.
3Com® Switch 4070 offers a twenty-four port configuration to populate with
1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, and 1000BASE-LH SFPs, delivering the ultimate
flexibility, enabling mixing and matching media and port-count to meet the
network needs. Optional XRN technology support.
3Com® Switch 4060 offers a twenty-four port configuration with 12
1000BASE-SX ports, 6 GBIC ports, and 6 integrated 10/100/1000 ports, delivering
media flexibility and optional XRN technology support.
3Com® Switch 4050 offers a twenty-four port configuration with 6 1000BASE-SX
ports, 6 GBIC ports, and 12 integrated 10/100/1000 ports, delivering media
flexibility and optional XRN technology support.
3Com XRN™
(eXpandable Resilient Networking) technology allows implementation of high
availability configurations using two interconnected Switch 4050s, Switch 4060s,
or Switch 4070s, 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 multi-layer 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 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 802.3ad, Resilient links,
Spanning Tree and Rapid Spanning Tree (802.1w), seven groups of RMON, and e-mail
alerts
-
Security features like 802.1X
RADIUS client support and Routed Access Control lists protect sensitive network
information and ensure that users have access to authorized resources
-
High density fibre
connectivity by populating the Switch 4070 with 1000BASE-SX and 1000BASE-LX SFP
transceivers
-
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.
