48-port 10/100/1000Base-T Line Card

The 48-port 10/100/1000Base-T line card for the Force10 E-Series E600 and E1200 is based on the innovative Force10 TeraScale™ ASICs and provides connectivity over Cat5 UTP copper for distances up to 100 meters.

This line card provides industry-leading density of up to 672 line-rate, non-blocking 10/100/1000Base-T ports in a single chassis. Additionally, the TeraScale ASICs and E-Series architecture enable line-rate performance with QoS and Access Control Lists (ACLs) enabled, jumbo frame support, with simultaneous L2 switching, IPv4 and IPv6 routing.

Key Features

• Full line-rate throughput for 64 to 9,252 byte Ethernet frames on all ports with all features enabled
• Integrated Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) to easily monitor and isolate faults on copper wiring infrastructure
• Guaranteed packet delivery through virtual output queues that minimize latency and eliminate head-of-line blocking
• Wire-speed security features including up to 4K L2, 26K IPv4 and 8K IPv6 Access Control Lists (ACLs) per line card (using default CAM profiles)
• Fully functional switching and routing with up to 64K MACs, 256K IPv4 addresses or 192K/6K IPv4/IPv6 addresses per series EF line card, or 512K IPv4 addresses and 32K IPv6 addresses per series EG line card (using default CAM profiles)
• Configurable CAM profiles for L2, IPv4, IPv6 FIBs and ACLs that allow flexible CAM allocation based on network requirements
