Alcatel-Lucent
OS-LS6200 Series Page 4
The OS-LS-6200 family complements the existing portfolio of Alcatel.Lucent enterprise fixed-configuration workgroup
switches which includes:
OmniSwitch 6602 family of switches: stackable layer-3 10/100 with Gig uplinks
OmniSwitch 6800 and 6850 families of switches: stackable layer-3 10/100/1000 capable of 10Gig uplinks.
Alcatel.Lucent OmniVista Network Management System supports OS LS 6200.
Alcatel.Lucent’s fixed configuration switches are part of the larger Alcatel.Lucent enterprise portfolio that includes the
modular-based OmniSwitch 7000 and 9000 series of modular aggregation and core switches. Together, this portfolio offers
a complete edge-to-core solution with high availability, intelligent performance, and enhanced security in an easy-to-
manage, flexible and scalable package.
Alcatel.Lucent understands the need to offer investment protection and provides a limited lifetime hardware warranty on OS-LS-
6200, OS6602, OS6800 and OS6850 families of switches.
Cost effective, enterprise workgroup switch
The OS-LS-6200 family offers small, medium or large enterprise networks a cost-effective and secure means of deploying PoE
on every port, providing users mobility across the campus. By providing wire speed
QoS and security to the edge, Alcatel.Lucent is able to ensure a highly available network for important applications such as IP
voice communications. The OS LS 6200s support industry-standard CLI, and provide simplified stack management using
standard Ethernet cabling. This reduces the complexity and costs associated with training, installation, configuration, and
maintenance.
Superior architecture
This switch family also provides a superior architecture with four useable
Gigabit Ethernet ports that support stacking and multi-Gig uplink connectivity without sacrificing user ports.
Since the OS-LS-6212 and OS-LS-6224 are fan-less designs, they are a perfect fit for environments with severe noise restrictions.
In addition, the advanced VLAN classification offered by the OS-LS-6200 family improves partitioning of users and applications,
greatly improving security and enabling better performance for network applications including voice and video.
Multi-Service operator
The OS-LS-6200 family supports residential network operators at the network’s edge with:
Per service VLAN stacking (Q-in-Q) capability providing scalability for user ser vice differentiation
A reduced number of VLANs in aggregation
Interoperability with MPLS/VPLS core network architecture
Through the use of multicast TV VLANs the OS LS 6200s provide extremely efficient bandwidth usage by preventing duplication of
TV streams sent between the core and the edge of the network. In addition, it enables multiple TV providers per subscriber.
