High-Availability Gigabit Switching for Enterprise-Class
Building Core Switching The 3Com Switch 4050 offers high-availability,
multilayer Gigabit Ethernet switching for the network backbone in a fixed
configuration unit. It is a 24-port switch, with six 1000BASE-SX ports, six GBIC
ports, and 12 integrated 10/100/1000 ports.
The Switch 4060 supports
3Com's patented XRN™ technology allowing you to quickly build a fully redundant
server farm or network core solution out of a pair of 3Com Gigabit switches—
delivering high resiliency without complexity.
The switch has a durable
metal chassis— a compact, 2RU-high rack-mountable unit.
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 40x0 or SuperStack 3 Switch 4900 family switches.
Advanced Layer 2 and Layer 4 functionality—such as multicast filtering,
enhanced QoS/CoS services, virtual LANs, and multilayer traffic classification
and prioritization—provides network-wide traffic control
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
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
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
High-density fiber connectivity by populating the Switch 4050 with 3Com
1000BASE-SX (3CGBIC91), 1000BASE-LX
(3CGBIC92) and 1000BASE-LH
(3CGBIC97) GBIC transceivers. Mix and match the GBICs so as to populate the
switch to suit your port count and media needs.
Optional 1000BASE-SX,
1000BASE-T,
1000BASE-LX
and GBIC-based
expansion modules deliver four additional ports of high-performance,
feature-rich switching over copper or multimode fiber. Use the GBIC-based module
also to support geographically-distributed
XRN configurations.
3Com® Network Supervisor (60-day trial version included with the switch)
offers discovery, mapping, monitoring, and alerting for easy network
administration
