Description
The
WaveSwitch 9202 is a 2-slot version of the WaveSwitch 9200. Its design
features a high-capacity crosspoint switching fabric surrounded by I/O
modules, called Gigamodules.
All
WaveSwitch 9200 I/O modules can be used in the WaveSwitch 9202. ÝThe
Gigamodules can switch between different technologies. Maximal configurations
are:
- 16 FDDI
SAS ports
- 8 FDDI
DAS ports
- 32 10/100BASE-TX
ports
- 32 100BASE-FX
ports
- 1 Router
Accelerator (Layer 3 switch)
The
WaveSwitch 9202 has powerful networking features grouped under the name
NextWave Switching. These features increase available bandwidth and decrease
the complexity of network operations. NextWave Switching reduces broadcast
and multicast traffic and automatically configures network parameters.
The
WaveSwitch 9202 supports trunk group software. By combining up to 32 links
into a single virtual link, trunking provides a high-bandwidth, high-availability
connection to other switches or high-performance servers.
New
applications requiring high speed file transfer or full motion video place
great demands on the network. The WaveSwitch 9202 combines raw switching
capacity with sophisticated network features to satisfy even the most
demanding applications.
Benefits
- Increases
bandwidth for new network applications, while maintaining compatibility
with existing network infrastructure
- Switches
traffic at Layer 2 or Layer 3 to maximize performance and simplify operations
- Provides
a tunable, high-bandwidth connection to servers or other switches using
Trunk Group software
- Controls
broadcast and multicast traffic through NextWave Switching features
- Increases
productivity of network management staff through automatic configuration
- Simplifies
your network operations, making a complex network perform like a "data
utility"
- Compatible
with WaveSwitch 9200 Gigamodules
The
WaveSwitch 9202 chassis part number is PTP702A.
The external redundant power
supply is part number PTM702A.
