BDCOM S6508 is a all-modular, high-port-density backbone route switch. Its 128 Gigabit switch fabric and wire-speed L3 packet forwarding rate provide users with fast, congestion-less switching. Up to 256 Fast Ethernet ports and up to 32 Gigabit ports makes it perfect for large enterprise campuses to boost network capacity. The 10 expansion slots and many modules enable users to flexibly configure their networks to be elastic and expansible. The full set of switching and routing functions, high reliability and redundancy, makes BDCOM S6508 an ideal choice for the core switch for large- and medium-sized networks APPLICATION Aggregation level of enterprise networks. Gigabit core of large- and medium-sized enterprise networks. Connection to server cluster or data centers. High performance-price ratio, multi-layer switching solution in other situations where multiple Gigabit ports are needed. FEATURES Powerful multi-layer switching 64 ~ 128 Gbps switch fabric. MCU works in hot standby or load balancing modes. The switching circuit has 1.8 internal acceleration factor and consummate Head Of Line (HOL) blocking prevention mechanism, which ensures congestion-less, wire-speed traffic switching. QoS guaranteed by hardware-based multiple priority queues. IP Multicast supported by packet replication within the switching circuit. Wire-speed processing ASIC-based multi-protocol engine and access engine support up to 10,000 users. Hardware forwarding engine for multi-layer wire-speed switching. (e.g. FEF: 2.4 Mpps, GEA: 2.98 Mpps) Hardware flow classification engine prioritizes traffic based on MAC address, IP address, or L4/L5 flow class. Hardware IPMC engine forward data at wire-speed, delivering smoother multimedia experience without impacting system performance. Tight security IP aef intelligent forwarding provides comprehensive defense against various viruses. IP filtering quarantines infected users and prevents viruses from spreading. High reliability Redundant key parts. MCU can auto-detect failures, alarm for attention and switch to spare parts. Double power modules work in hot standby mode. Structure design strictly follows Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) specification. Powerful QoS support Priority-based scheduling algorithms serve users with discrimination according to their priority levels. L2-L7 flow classification and priority control. Integrated user management Comprehensive user authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) functions. User management engine authenticates users by MAC address, IP address, VLAN ID, and port assignment. Resource access control based on user privileges. User priority and bandwidth control. User access log management.
