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.

The SMC EZ Switch™ (SMCGS801P) is an 8-port unmanaged 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet PoE switch that provides seamless network connections, integrating 1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet and 10/100 Mbps Ethernet network capabilities. The PoE Ports can automatically detect and supply power to IEEE 802.3af/at-compliant Powered Devices (PDs). The PoE electrical power is transmitted along with data in a single cable, allowing a network to expand where there are no power lines or outlets, to where you want to fix devices such as APs, IP cameras, or IP phones etc.

The WAP5110 is an indoor 802.11a/b/g/n dual-band, dual-radio enterprise AP with a 2x2 MIMO antenna configuration. Through its Gigabit Ethernet port the 802.11n dual-band wireless AP can connect to the backbone network. The WAP5110 supports 802.3af PoE, which enables the AP to be powered remotely by a PoE switch. An AC power adapter option is also included for locations where PoE is not available.

Wireless 802.11n Technology
Using 802.11n MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) wireless technology, the AP supports two transmitting and two receiving antennas that extend range and increase the throughput by up to nine times that of existing Wi-Fi.

The ECS5520 series consists of two switches with sixteen 10GbE SFP+ ports or 10GBASE-T ports and two 40GbE uplink ports. The switches are designed for carrier/enterprise aggregation or small data center top-of-rack. The ECS5520 series is an ideal solution for traditional three-tier aggregation or core topologies and folded-Clos architectures, serving with a 2:1 oversubscription. The ECS5520 switches are packed with features that bring high availability, comprehensive security, robust multicast control, and advance QoS to network aggregation, while maintaining simple management. The switch also supports the most advance IPv6 management, IPv6 security, and IPv6 multicast control in accordance with the growth of IPv6 deployment. ISPs can expand their services from home to business users by providing a more reliable and resilient network (ITU-T G.8032 ERPS), L2 VPNs, and advanced OAM (Operations, Administration, and Maintenance) functions to ensure service-level agreements.

Key Features and Benefits | Performance and Scalability

The Edgecore ECS5520-18X/ECS5520-18T is a high-performance 10 Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2+/Lite L3 managed switch with 480 Gbps switching capacity. The switch delivers wire-speed switching performance on all 10GbE ports, taking full advantage of aggregating high-performance Gigabit access switches with 10G uplinks, or TOR switches with links to 10G rack servers etc, significantly improving the responsiveness of applications as well as file and multimedia transfer times.

The two built-in 40G QSFP+ ports provide uplink flexibility, allowing the insertion of fiber 40G transceivers to create 40Gbps high-speed uplinks to service provider core or spine switches, or corporate or campus networks, reducing bottlenecks and increasing the performance of the access network. With 40G-to-10G SFP+ breakout cables, users can increase the number of 10G SFP+ ports to 24. The ECS5520-18X/ECS5520-18T provides dual hot swappable, load sharing power supplies to ensure the reliability of the switch. The airflow is from front to back and there is a temperature sensor for fan speed control.

Continuous Availability

The IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol provides a loop-free network and redundant links to the core network with rapid convergence, to ensure faster recovery from failed links, enhancing overall network stability and reliability. The IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol runs STP per VLAN base, providing Layer 2 load sharing on redundant links up to 64 instances.

The ECS5520-18X/ECS5520-18T 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 ECS5520-18X/ECS5520-18T supports G.8032 Ethernet Ring Protection Switching with the ability for the network to detect 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 50ms

Enhanced Security

Port security limits the total number of devices from using a switch port and protects against MAC flooding attacks.

IEEE 802.1X port-based or MAC-based access control ensures all users are authorized before being granted access to the network. When a user is authenticated to the VLAN, QoS and security policy are automatically applied the port where the user is connected, otherwise the port is grouped in a guest VLAN with limited access.

DHCP snooping allows a switch to protect a network from rogue DHCP servers that offer invalid IP addresses.
