24-PORT 1000BASE-X SFP 2X 10G XFP 2X OPTIONAL 10G

The Edge-Core ECS4660-28F is a standalone L3 Gigabit Metro Ethernet routing switch with 24 1000Base-X SFP slots, two 10G XFP uplink slots, and two 10G module slots that can support two additional 10G uplinks. With up 107Mpps performance, the ECS4660-28F is ideal for service provider aggregation deployment, providing wire-speed L2 switching and L3 unicast and multicast routing. To maintain high availability, the ECS4660-28F provides redundant power, a hot swappable fan tray, configuration rollback, and G.8032 ring protection.

Key Features and Benefits

High Availability

With IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol, the Edge- Core ECS4660-28F provides a loop-free network with redundant links to the core network and rapid convergence in less than 2 seconds. IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol allows a spanning-tree instance per VLAN and Layer 2 load sharing on redundant links.

The ECS4660-28F supports IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). It increases bandwidth by automatically aggregating several physical links together as a logical trunk and offers load balancing and fault tolerance for uplink connections.

The ECS4660-28F supports G.8032 Ethernet Ring Protection Switching, with the ability for the network to detected and recover from incidents without impacting users, meeting the most demanding quality and availability requirements. Rapid recovery time when problems do occur is as low as 50 msec.

Comprehensive QoS

The Edge-Core ECS4660-28F offers advance QoS for marking, classification, and scheduling to deliver best-in-class performance for data, voice, and video traffic at wire speed. Eight egress queues per port enable differentiated management of up to eight traffic types across the stack. Traffic is prioritized according to 802.1p, DSCP, IP precedence and TCP/UDP port number to provide optimal performance to real-time applications. Weight Round Robin (WRR) and strict priority ensure differential prioritization of packet flows and avoid congestion of ingress and egress queues.

With bidirectional rate-limiting, per port or per traffic class, the ECS4660-28F preserves network bandwidth and allows full control of network resources.

The ECS4660-28F supports Three Color Market and Policing single rate: Committed Information Rate (CIR) Two Rate: CIR+ Peak Information Rate (PIR) Traffic Policing: Drop or remark the priority tag of packets exceeds burst size.

Advanced IPv4 and IPv6 Routing

The Edge-Core ECS4660-28F supports hardware-based IPv4 and IPv6 routing for maximum performance. It provides a seamless migration path from IPv4 and IPv6 for future network upgrades and investment protection.

Advance routing protocols such as RIP and OSPF provide dynamic routing by routing by exchanging routing information with other L3 switches or routes. Multicast routing is supported under independent multicast protocols, including PIM-DM and PIM-SM. DVMRP is also supported to interconnect two multicast-enabled networks across non-multicast networks. VRRP prevents your system from failing by dynamically backing up multiple L3 switches for routing.
