Cajun P550 Switch Modules

The Layer 2 and Layer 3 supervisor and media modules implement wire speed routing and bridging in Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). One set of ASICs supports a gigabit-per-second’s worth of traffic (any combination of Layer 2 and Layer 3). The routing and bridging ASICs can process 1.5 million packets per second, which is just slightly more than a gigabit’s worth of minimum-sized Ethernet frames.

Note: All Layer 3 modules interoperate with the Layer 2 modules.
