48-port Gigabit Ethernet Line Cards with Pluggable SFP Modules Overview

 

The 48-port Gigabit Ethernet line card for the Force10 E-Series E1200 and E600 is based on the innovative Force10 TeraScale™ ASICs. Pluggable SFP modules support distances up to 80km and pluggable 1000Base-T modules support distances up to 100m over Cat5 UTP for mixed fiber/copper installations.

This line card provides industry-leading density of up to 672 line-rate, non-blocking 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 9252 byte Ethernet frames on all ports with all features enabled
  • Pluggable SFP modules providing support for SX, LX, ZX and 1000Base-T interfaces
  • 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 IPv4/IPv6 FIBs, and ACLs that allow flexible CAM allocation based on network requirements
