16-port High Density 10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN/WAN PHY

With Pluggable XFP Modules
(E-Series Line Card)

Up to 224 10 GbE Ports in a Single Chassis
Full L2 Switching and IPv4/IPv6 Routing

16-port High Density 10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN/WAN PHY With Pluggable XFP Modules Overview

The 16-port high density 10 Gigabit Ethernet line card for the Force10 E-Series E600 and E1200 is based on the innovative Force10 TeraScale™ ASICs and E-Series Architecture and provides pluggable XFP modules supporting distances up to 80 km.

This line card provides industry-leading density of up to 224 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports in a single chassis. Each line card slot supports 48 Gbps of throughput or a density of up to 56 line-rate, non-blocking 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports in a single chassis. Additionally, the TeraScale ASICs and E-Series Architecture enables predictable performance with QoS and Access Control Lists (ACLs) enabled, jumbo frame support, with simultaneous L2 switching, IPv4 and IPv6 routing.

This card present a truly flexible solution that can be used in applications spanning the LAN, MAN and WAN.

Key Features

Consistent throughput for 64 to 9,252 byte Ethernet frames on all ports with
all features enabled
Pluggable XFP modules providing support for SR, LR, ER, ZR, DWDM and CX4 interfaces
CLI-selectable option for WAN or LAN PHY on a per port basis, enabling flexible network design at the line card level
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
