Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850 Stackable Gigabit LAN Switch Family
The Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850 (OS6850) Stackable LAN Switch (SLS) family addresses the needs of modern enterprise and triple-play networking with flexible, configurations; powerover-Ethernet, high availability, firstpacket wire-speed performance, and dramatically improved network response time.
Today's enterprise networks require Gigabit Ethernet switches that are feature-rich, reliable, and capable of supporting converged applications at low cost of ownership. The OmniSwitch 6850 series, similar to the existing Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch products, uses the Alcatel-Lucent Operating System (AOS), which ensures an easy and economical way to upgrade or deploy a new Ethernet network.
Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850 Family The Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850 Stackable LAN switch family offers a variety of PoE and non-PoE Gigabit and Fast Ethernet models. The Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850Ls, also referred to as the "light" models, are the only switches on the market that offer the best layer-2/layer-3 features for 10/100 applications that can be upgraded to Gigabit. They are stackable 10/100 Ethernet workgroup switches built on the same hardware platform as the OS6850 models.
Power Options The OmniSwitch 6850 family offers customers a vast selection of switches and power options so that they can prevent over or under provisioning power to their switches and save money by not having to purchase more than they need. All of the OmniSwitch 6850 chassis support redundant, dual hot-swappable AC, DC or PoE power supplies. The primary as well as the backup power supplies for the OmniSwitch 6850 models are external and connect to the rear of the unit.
P ro d u c t f e a t u re s a n d b e n e f i t s ONETOUCH NETWORK MANAGEMENT The OmniSwitch 6850s are part of Alcatel-Lucent’s OmniSwitch family - which includes core, stackable / modular edge, and wireless LAN (WLAN) switches - that uses the AOS and are managed by the Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista Network Management System for simplified OneTouch manageability.
SECURITY Alcatel-Lucent’s Access Guardian and OmniVista 2770 Quarantine Manager are components of Alcatel-Lucent’s CrystalSec security framework that supports all of Alcatel-Lucent’s enterprise networking devices. This framework offers proactive and reactive security solutions comprised of comprehensive switch-based security capabilities as well as integration with security applications and appliances from industry leaders.
P ro d u c t f e a t u re s a n d b e n e f i t s HIGH AVAILABILITY The OmniSwitch 6850s virtual chassis minimizes network downtime, reduces operational complexity and cost and increases availability for mission-critical applications by removing single points of failure.
IPV6 SUPPORT Leading industry analysts, such as Gartner Group and Burton, have indicated that IPv6 will be a requirement for enterprise networks in the near future. By including it now, a network manager extends the life of existing equipment and prevents future expenses from upgrading to IPv6.
Deployment options GIGABIT AT THE EDGE The OmniSwitch 6850 series of switches provide a migration path to Gigabit on the LAN edge where high speed and extensive features are needed. The OmniSwitch 6850s have the features necessary to provide intelligent, secure, and available networking for the most demanding applications and user requirements.
