Features

BayStack 410-24T switches offer the following features:

•High-speed forwarding rate: Up to 1 million packets per second (peak)

•Store-and-forward switch: Full-performance forwarding at full line speed, utilizing a 1.28 Gigabit/second switch fabric

•Learning rate: 1 million addresses per second (peak)

•Address database size: 16,000 entries at line rate (32,000 entries without flooding)

•Fail-safe stacking: Provides uninterrupted connectivity for up to eight units, with up to 224 ports stacked together as one managed unit (requires one optional BayStack 400-ST1 Cascade Module kit per stacked unit. See your Nortel Networks sales representative for ordering information).
