24-port Gigabit Ethernet Line Card with Pluggable SFP Modules OverviewThe 24-port Gigabit Ethernet line card for the Force10 E-Series E300 is based on the innovative Force10 TeraScale™ ASICs. Pluggable SFP modules support distances up to 80 km and pluggable 1000Base-T modules support distances up to 100 m over Cat5 UTP for mixed fiber/copper installations.
This line card provides industry-leading density of up to 144 Gigabit Ethernet ports in a single chassis. Each line card slot supports 22 Gbps of throughput or a density of up to 132 line-rate, non-blocking Gigabit Ethernet 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.
