Cisco switch WS-C3524-PWR-XL-EN

WS-C3508G-XL-EN Cisco Catalyst 3508G XL, 8 gigabit interface converter (GBIC) ports

The Catalyst WS-C3508G-XL-EN eight-port stackable Gigabit Ethernet switch is a member of the Cisco Systems Catalyst 3500 Series XL, a scalable line of stackable 10/100 and Gigabit Ethernet switches that delivers excellent performance, manageability, and flexibility.

The Catalyst WS-C3508G-XL-EN switch features eight Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC)-based 1000Base-X ports and a 10-Gbps switching fabric. These features make this switch ideal for either high-speed wiring closet stack aggregation or a distribution layer Gigabit Ethernet aggregation switch. The Catalyst WS-C3508G-XL-EN aggregates a group of 10/100 and Gigabit Ethernet switches and Gigabit Ethernet servers through Cisco GigaStack GBICs or standard 1000BASE-X GBICs. The switch is easy to deploy, either on a desktop or in a wiring closet, and features Cisco IOS� software support. Administration of the Cisco desktop Catalyst switches is made even more convenient via the Cisco Cluster Management Suite (CMS) Software.

Cisco WS-C3508G-XL-EN Product Details

• Eight GBIC-based Gigabit Ethernet ports deliver up to 5-Gbps aggregated forwarding bandwidth to a switch cluster
• 10-Gbps switching fabric and 7.0 million packets-per-second forwarding rate
• 4 MB shared-memory architecture ensures the highest possible throughput, with a design that eliminates head-of-line blocking, minimizes packet loss, and delivers better overall performance in environments with extensive multicast and broadcast traffic
• Full-duplex operation on all ports delivers up to 2-Gbps on 1000Base-X ports
• Dual-priority forwarding queues on each Gigabit Ethernet port through IEEE 802.1p protocol enable prioritization of mission critical and time sensitive traffic from data, voice, and telephony applications
• Trusted extension settings allows the switch to set trusted port settings for the PC port on Cisco IP phones, ensuring voice traffic receives highest priority
• Bandwidth aggregation up to 4 Gbps through Gigabit EtherChannel technology enhances fault tolerance and offers higher-speed aggregated bandwidth between switches, and to routers and individual servers
• A configurable network port supports unlimited MAC addresses for backbone connectivity
• GigaStack GBIC delivers a low-cost hardware-based, independent stack bus with up to 1-Gbps forwarding bandwidth in a cascade configuration (up to nine Catalyst 3500 XL or gigabit-enabled Catalyst 2900 Series XL switches) or 2-Gbps forwarding rate in a point-to-point configuration
• GBIC-based Gigabit Ethernet ports give customers a choice of 1000Base-T, 1000Base-SX, 1000Base-LX/LH, 1000Base-ZX, or Cisco GigaStack GBICs to fit their connection needs
• Per-port broadcast, multicast, and unicast storm control prevents faulty end stations from degrading overall systems performance
