OmniSwitch 9000 full redundancy
PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The new OS9000 switch family addresses the needs of converged networks: high availability, wire-speed performance, high density GigE and 10GigE, and dramatically improved network response time. The OS9000 family provides 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. The OS9000s also future proofs the network with native and full support of IPv4/IPv6 for addressing migration from IPv4 to IPv6 or new IPv6 deployments.
The OS9000s are engineered to be deployed in the:
• Enterprise core | • Data center |
• Wiring closet | • Aggregation layer |
Enterprise core / Data center
The OS9000s address enterprise network core requirements with:
•Enhanced VoIP and video performance with policy-based QoS using OmniVista PolicyView
•Future-proof support for multi-media applications with wire-rate multicast
•Enhanced forwarding - improves network response time through hardware-based forwarding at first packet and elimination of CPU solicitation for ACL/QoS demands
•High-availability in network designs with dual-aggregation switch through extensive support of L2/L3 protocols for smart use of network topology redundancy
Aggregation layer
The OS9000s address aggregation requirements with:
•Higher 10G port density than competitive products
•Increased options for wire-rate GigE ports (copper, fiber, PoE)
Wiring closet connectivity
The OS9000 addresses wiring closet requirements with:
•Full power-over-Ethernet support for IP telephones, WLAN access points and video cameras with up to 2400W of power through dedicated power shelves
•Isolation of intruders with OmniVista 2770 Quarantine Manager
•Extensive support of AOS user-oriented features such as user authentication, learned port security (LPS), group mobility, and port mapping
