Highlights
- Automate and simplify the end-to-end deployment of campus, data center and cloud-based services, using a flexible fabric architecture straight out of the box
- Provide high-capacity PoE and connectivity to devices in your converged campus network
- Be prepared to control virtual network profiles and policy management with SDN and virtualization
Features
- Modular slots offer versatility in terms of 100 GigE QSFP28, 40 GigE QSFP+, 10 GigE SFP+, 10 G Base-T and 10/100/1000 Base-T ports. Each QSFP28 port is capable of operating as 100 GigE or 4x25 GigE. Each QSFP+ port is capable of operating as 40 GigE or 4x10 GigE.
- Multi-Gigabit module provides for 1/2.5/5/10G Base-T ports
- Up to two switches can be connected using virtual chassis technology to create a single chassis-like entity with up to 480 10 GigE ports and 480 GigE ports
- Scalable network virtualization architecture with Auto-Fabric IP routing for routed backbone and access provisioning, Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) for bridging and routed services, Edge Virtual Bridging (EVB), Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol (MVRP) and dynamic Virtual Network Profiles (vNP)
- Zero-touch provisioning and network automation with out-of-the-box plug-and-play Auto-Fabric for automatic protocol and topology discovery. Auto-Fabric operation extends to IP routing protocol provisioning and IP onboarding
- OS9907-CFM2 enables higher capacity on 100GigE ports
- The chassis provides maximum of 25.6 Tb/s switching capacity
