The Cisco Catalyst WS-C4948-S is a wire-speed, low-latency, Layer 2-4,
1 rack unit (RU) fixed-configuration switch for rack-optimized server switching.
Based on the proven Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series hardware and software architecture,
the Cisco Catalyst 4948 Series offers exceptional performance and reliability
for low density, multilayer aggregation of high performance servers and workstations.
High performance and scalability of intelligent network services is made possible
with dedicated specialized resources known as ternary content addressable memory
(TCAM). Ample TCAM resources (64,000 entries) enable "high feature capacity," which
provides wire-speed routing/switching performance with concurrent provisioning
of services such as QoS and security. This helps ensure scalability for today's
network requirements with ample room for future growth.
The
Cisco Catalyst WS-C4948-S offers 48 ports of wire-speed 10/100/1000BASE-T
with 4 alternative wired ports that can accommodate optional 1000BASE-X Small
Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) optics
