Chapter 1 Product Overview

System Architecture

Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Service Provider DC Power Supply

The triple-input 1400 W DC power supply is optimized for service provider or central-office deployments. By providing multiple inputs, the service provider DC power supply enables central-office technicians to customize the output power to meet their application needs. Many central-office deployments require only a fraction of the 1400 W available in the service provider power supply. Low current inputs mean technicians can connect the supply to smaller fuses and breakers. The service provider power supply makes it possible to deploy a Cisco Catalyst 4503-E with a single 15 A circuit. Likewise, it is possible to deploy a fully populated Cisco Catalyst 4510R-E with two 20 A and one 15 A circuits rather than a single 60 A connection, which often requires rack rewiring.

Each system component has an EEPROM that identifies it to the supervisor engine over a serial connection on the backplane, which also passes along information like temperature, fan speed, power draw per slot and port, and port activity. LED status information is also sent to the supervisor engine, which makes it available to an administrator through a terminal connection or management software.

All Catalyst 4500 E-series switches support:

•Cisco Group Management Protocol, for standards-based and Cisco technology-enhanced efficient multimedia networking.

•Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

•CiscoWorks, which can manage critical network characteristics such as availability, responsiveness, resilience, and security.

•Cisco NetFlow Services. The Cisco NetFlow Services Card for the Supervisor Engine IV and V support statistics capture in hardware for flow-based and VLAN-based statistics monitoring. This data can be exported, collected, and analyzed for virus detection and mitigation, network-traffic accounting, usage-based network billing, network planning, network monitoring, and data-mining capabilities. Cisco NetFlow Services is integral to the Supervisor Engine V-10GE.

Among its extensive range of offerings, the WSUPOE12VPSPL and the Catalyst 4500 E-Series stand out as exemplary solutions tailored for businesses seeking robust, scalable, and versatile network infrastructure.

The WSUPOE12VPSPL is a 12-port Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch that provides significant advantages for organizations looking to streamline their operations. It is designed to deliver power and data over a single cable, reducing the clutter of additional power supplies and cords. This efficiency not only simplifies deployment but also enhances the flexibility to place devices anywhere within the network environment, making it an ideal choice for powering IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras.

Main features of the WSUPOE12VPSPL include its ability to deliver up to 15.4 watts of power per port, supporting up to 12 PoE devices simultaneously. This capability is especially beneficial in environments where power outlets are scarce or where devices are located in non-traditional locations. With a rugged design suitable for various operational contexts, it ensures reliable performance even under demanding conditions.

When integrated within the Catalyst 4500 E-Series switches, organizations can leverage advanced technologies that enhance overall network performance and security. The Catalyst 4500 E-Series is known for its modularity, allowing businesses to expand their networks as required. Its architecture supports high throughput, advanced QoS features, and extensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 capabilities, ensuring efficient data handling and management.

Moreover, the Catalyst 4500 E-Series can integrate with Cisco’s digital network architecture and software-defined networking (SDN), facilitating automation and better visibility through tools such as Cisco DNA Center. This allows IT administrators to efficiently manage network resources, monitor performance, and implement security policies with ease.

In terms of operational intelligence, the integration with analytics tools enables organizations to gain insights into traffic patterns, user behaviors, and application performance, thus empowering data-driven decision-making.

Overall, the Cisco WSUPOE12VPSPL and the Catalyst 4500 E-Series offer a powerful combination of features, technologies, and characteristics that make them indispensable to modern networking. They cater to the demands of diverse business environments, ensuring reliability, flexibility, and scalability as organizations continue to evolve in an increasingly digital landscape.
