FlexMedia Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet Line Card with Pluggable Media Modules

The multi-port FlexMedia line card for the Force10 C-Series C150 and C300 features 36 10/100/1000Base-T ports, eight Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports, and two 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ ports. This line card provides industry-leading flexibility for supporting applications that require a diverse set of Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in the same chassis.

Additionally, the C-Series ASICs and architecture enables linerate performance with QoS and Access Control Lists (ACLs) enabled, jumbo frame support, and simultaneous L2 switching and IPv4 routing. The intelligence embedded in the line cards allows localized switching, providing very low latency.

Key Features

  • Consistent throughput for 64 to 9,252 byte frames on all ports regardless of features enabled
  • 36 10/100/1000Base-T interfaces with auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX
  • Intelligent power management with PoE (IEEE 802.3af) support, provides Class 3 inline power of 15.4 watts per port (LC-CB-10G-1G-36V)
  • Eight Gigabit Ethernet interfaces with pluggable SFP modules providing support for 100Base-FX, 1000Base-SX, 1000Base-LX, 1000Base-ZX and 1000Base-T
  • Two 10 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces with pluggable SFP+ modules providing support for 10GBase-SR and 10GBase-LR
  • 5 microsecond switching latency under full load for 64 byte frames
  • Per-port status and activity LEDs
