Switches & Bridges

The Edge-Core ECS4510 series is a compact but high-performance Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2+ switch featuring 28 /52 ports; with 24 /48 10/100/1000Base-T ports , 2 10G SFP+ ports, and one 10G dual port expansion slot. The switch is ideal for high-performance server aggregations, such as enterprise data center, where it can connect high-end or network-attached files servers over fiber ports. It can also deployed as a backbone upgrade, or to provide Gigabit -to-the-desktop for power users. This switch is packed with features and is a cost-effective solution that brings continuous availability, enhanced security and advanced QoS to the network edge, while maintaining simplicity of management.

The Edge-Core ECS4610 Series includes two stackable Gigabit Ethernet routing switches with a choice of 24 or 48 Gigabit 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, four combination Gigabit Ethernet SFP slots, two optional 10 Gigabit Ethernet slots, and two stacking ports on the rear panel. The ECS4610 Series is ideal for service provider edge aggregation, enterprise wiring closets, data center aggregation, and network core deployment. It provides high performance, resilient stacking, wire-speed L2 switching and L3 routing, comprehensive QoS, and advanced security to deliver the scalability and resiliency to increase your company's productivity while reducing operation costs.

The Edge-Core ES3552M is a Fast Ethernet Layer 2/4 switch featuring 52 ports; 48 100Base-TX ports and 4 combo Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45/SFP (Small Form Factor Pluggable) ports. It is ideal for desktop Fast Ethernet connectivity and wiring closet installations. Using IP Clustering for a virtual stack of up to 36 switches. The whole stack can be managed as a single entity with a single IP address. This switch is packed with features and is a cost-effective solution that brings continuous availability, enhanced security and advanced QoS to the network edge, while maintaining simplicity of management.

The Edgecore ECS4530 Series switch is a high port density Gigabit Ethernet fiber switch with four 10G uplink ports. By inserting a CSFP transceiver with two bidirectional fiber ports into a CSFP port, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and Multiple System Operators (MSOs) can support twice as many subscribers per port and reduce the space and heating or cooling costs needed for deploying two 24 port switches and larger 48-port switches. The switch is ideal for ISPs/MSOs that want to provide home users with FTTH triple-play services with up to a Gigabit of bandwidth. It is also ideal for ISPs/MSOs that want to aggregate FE/GE access switches with Gigabit fiber uplinks. The ECS4530 Series switch is packed with features that bring high availability, comprehensive security, robust multicast control, and advance QoS to the network edge, while maintaining simple management. The switch also supports the most advanced IPv6 management, IPv6 security, and IPv6 multicast control in accordance with the growth of IPv6 deployment.

Key Features and Benefits | Performance and Scalability

The Edgecore ECS4530 Series is a high-performance Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2+ managed switch with 256Gbps switching capacity. The switch delivers wire-speed switching performance on all Gigabit ports, taking full advantage of existing high-performance Gigabit fiber IAD, CPEs, and access switches with Gigabit fiber uplinks etc, significantly improving the responsiveness of applications and file transfer times. There are 24 CSFP ports, and by inserting a CSFP transceiver that supports two BIDI fiber ports, each port can connect to two CPE/IAD devices, so the total number of physical ports is 48.

The four built-in 10G SFP+ ports provide uplink flexibility, allowing the insertion of fiber or copper, Gigabit or 10G transceivers, to create 10 Gbps high-speed uplinks to servers or service provider, corporate, or campus networks, reducing bottlenecks and increasing the performance of the access network.

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 ECS4530 Series 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 ECS4530 Series 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, 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.

IP Source Guard prevents people from using IP addresses that were not assigned to them.

The TigerSwitch 10/100/1000 SMC8126L2 provide wire speed 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet
switching specially designed for SMB workgroup environments. High-speed performance combined with an advanced feature set allows an increase in throughput and fl exibility for the SMB. Built around the latest in switching silicon design to provide lowest power but highest performance.
