Chassis-based switch.The Force10 Networks C-Series Switches deliver reliability, network control and scalability for high performance Ethernet environments and high-density gigabit Ethernet An Ethernet standard that transmits at 1 Gbps. Used mostly to connect high-end workstations and servers as well as for network backbones, Gigabit Ethernet transmits full duplex from point to point using switches and half duplex in a shared environment (CSMA/CD) using a hub. (GbE) aggregation for distribution into a multiple Gbps or 10 GbE backbone. Key features of the C-Series Switches include: up to 384 line-rate 10/100/1000Base-T ports with full 15.4W Class 3 PoE support in a 13-RU chassis; up to 64 line-rate 10 GbE ports with pluggable XFP XFP 10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable Module XFP Extra-Fine-Pitch XFP Ten Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable modules; intelligent power management with full 15.4W PoE (IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. 802.3af) support across all ports; 5-microsecond switching latency under full load for 64 byte frames; and, switch fabric capacity of up to 1.53 Tbps and up to 952 Mpps L2/L3 packet forwarding Forwarding is the relaying of packets from one network segment to another by nodes in a computer network. The simplest forwarding model - unicasting - involves a packet being relayed from link to link along a chain leading from the packet's source to its destination. capacity. High availability architecture features include a 1 + 1 route processor module design, continuous runtime data plane monitoring and advanced in-service CLI (1) (Call Level Interface) A database programming interface from the SQL Access Group (SAG), an SQL membership organization. SAG's CLI is an attempt to standardize the SQL language for database access. diagnostic functions. Additionally, power supply redundancy with load sharing power bus helps ensure uninterrupted VoIP calls during power supply failures. Force10 Networks Inc., San Jose, Calif.
