Switch 4070 Features & Benefits
The switch's durable metal chassis-a compact, 2RU-high rack-mountable unit-is
equipped with 24 SFP (Small Form Factor Plug-in, or "mini-GBIC") ports,
accommodating 3Com® 1000BASE-SX SFP (3CSFP91), 1000BASE-LX SFP (3CSFP92) and
1000BASE-LH (3CSFP97) transceivers. Mix and match the population of SFPs so as
to populate the switch to suit your port count and media needs.
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.
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 multi-layer 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 fiber connectivity by populating the Switch 4070 with 1000BASE-SX,
1000BASE-LX , and 1000BASE-LH SFP transceivers. 1000BASE-LH supports up to 70Km
of single mode fibre.
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. To discuss your network requirements and to find out how Lyon Computer Solutions and 3Com can help you, Contact us.
