PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Preface

3Com Switch 8800 Family of Routing Switches (hereinafter referred to as Switch

 

8800 Family) are intelligent, multi-layer modular LAN switches is ideal for

 

enterprise environments where non-stop availability of critical applications and the

 

highest performance, security, and granular control are required. The Switch 8800

 

Family delivers high density Gigabit and 10 Gigabit switching in an integrated

 

chassis platform. Built-in support for IPv6, MPLS, Power over Ethernet (PoE), and

 

1.44 Tbps backplane capacity ensures unprecedented investment protection.

 

Resilient Layer-3 routing, hot-swap modules, and redundant power, along with

 

sub one-second fabric fail over on the Switch 8800, ensure (24 x 7) availability to

 

support the most demanding enterprise core and campus environments.

 

Advanced Quality of Service features such as bandwidth management and packet

 

classification optimize quality for real-time voice and video applications. Intrusion

 

prevention security capabilities such as IEEE 802.1X Network Login and Access

 

Control Lists ensure that only authorized users can access network resources.

 

The Switch 8800 is focused on delivering functionality towards the higher end of

 

the large Enterprise, with a 4-port 10 Gigabit Module, high density 48-port

 

Gigabit Modules, as well as a group of Advanced Modules with support for larger

 

routing tables and/or MPLS. Power over Ethernet (PoE) is built into all Switch

 

8800s.

 

Application modules for the Switch 8800 provide the flexibility to add a firewall,

 

IPsec encryption, network monitoring with NetFlow, and Layer 2 VPN networking

 

using Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) by simply adding a module to the chassis.
