Chapter 1: Introduction
Overview
The OmniStack® 6200 series has six platforms:
• OS-LS-6224 – Ethernet based switch with 24 RJ-45 10/100Base-TX ports, two
Gigabit combo uplink ports (with SFP or 10/100/1000Base-TX interfaces) and two
ports full-duplex Gigabit stacking
• OS-LS-6224P – Ethernet based switch with 24 RJ-45 10/100Base-TX ports
providing standard-based Power over Ethernet, two Gigabit combo uplink ports
(with SFP or 10/100/1000Base-TX interfaces) and two ports full-duplex Gigabit
stacking
• OS-LS-6248 – Ethernet based switch with 48 RJ-45 10/100Base-TX ports, two
Gigabit combo uplink ports (with SFP or 10/100/1000Base-TX interfaces) and two
ports full-duplex Gigabit stacking
• OS-LS-6248P – Ethernet based switch with 48 RJ-45 10/100Base-TX ports
providing standard-based Power over Ethernet, two Gigabit combo uplink ports
(with SFP or 10/100/1000Base-TX interfaces) and two ports full-duplex Gigabit
stacking
• OS-LS-6224-DC – 24 RJ-45 10/100Base-TX ports, two Gigabit combo uplink ports
(with SFP or 10/100/1000Base-TX interfaces) and two ports full-duplex Gigabit
stacking. In addition, the OS-LS-6224 -DC is powered by a DC power source rather
than an AC.
• OS-LS-6248-DC – 48 RJ-45 10/100Base-TX ports, two Gigabit combo uplink ports
(with SFP or 10/100/1000Base-TX interfaces) and two ports full-duplex Gigabit
stacking. In addition, the OS-LS-6248 -DCis powered by a DC power source rather
than an AC.
All devices have a management port which is used for debugging and management
purposes.
All the platforms can operate as standalone systems, or can be stacked together in
the same system.
Switch Architecture
The Fast Ethernet Switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This
permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all
ports. This switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively
doubles the bandwidth of each connection.
Network Management Options
This switch contains a comprehensive array of LEDs for “at-a-glance” monitoring of
network and port status. It also includes a management agent that allows you to
configure or monitor the switch using its embedded management software, or via
