Overview

The P332G-ML is a powerful Multilayer Gigabit Ethernet stackable switch. It enhances the P330 line to support high density multilayer Gigabit Ethernet solutions.

The Avaya P332G-ML has 12 GBIC (SFP) fiber-optic ports and provides Layer 2 and optional Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet switching. The high port density and stackability make it ideal for distribution and mid-sized backbone applications where performance and reliability are more important than ever. Like other members of the Avaya P330 family, the P332G-ML is available in AC and DC versions.

The low cost and scalability of the Avaya P332G-ML allow you to deploy Gigabit Ethernet throughout your network. For the first time, all your users can benefit from the latest development in Ethernet technology.

The Avaya P332G-ML adds affordable multilayer high-density Gigabit Ethernet capabilities to the Avaya P330 stackable switching system.

Multilayer switching with QoS, Policy Management and multiple levels of security and redundancy make the Avaya P332G-ML an ideal part of a converged network.

The Avaya P332G-ML is part of the P330 line. A P330 stack can contain up to 10 switches. The stacked switches are connected using stacking sub-modules which plug into a slot in the back of the P330. They are connected using the X330SC cable or the X330LC or X330L-SC cable (if the stack is split between 2 racks). The X330RC and X330L-RC cable (if the stack is split between 2 racks) connects the top and bottom switches in the stack and provides redundancy.

The P332G-ML is ready for voice and data applications, and supports IEEE standards for VLAN Tagging, Gigabit Ethernet, Spanning Tree and Flow Control.
