OmniSwitch 9000 Chassis LAN Switch

The new OmniSwitch 9000 (OS9000) switch family addresses the needs of network administrators: high availability, wire-speed performance, high density GigE and 10GigE, and offers dramatically improved network response time. These capabilities ensure an easy and economical way to upgrade or deploy a new Ethernet network. The large number of ports makes the OmniSwitch 9000s suitable for two- or three-tier network designs. This is possible because of the high performance capability and density of GigE and 10GigE. OS9000 also future proofs the network with its native and full support for simultaneous IPv4 and IPv6, addressing the need for a smooth migration from IPv4 to IPv6 or even pure IPv6 deployments.

The OS9000s are engineered to be deployed in the Enterprise network:

•in the core layer

•at the aggregation layer

•in the data center

They can also be deployed in the wiring closet when a chassis solution is required for the highest availability and performances.

•Carrier-class architecture

•Enterprise core and backbone applications

•High-density Gigabit Ethernet aggregation

•Large data centers and server farms

•Enterprise 10 Gigabit Ethernet MANs

•High performance
