The Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch
6250 is a new value layer-2+ Fast Ethernet stackable LAN family of switches
for both the enterprise and Ethernet access segments. Enterprise models address the small- and medium-sized
enterprise edge and branch office environments, while the metro models address the residential and business
Ethernet access supplied by service providers.
With an optimized design for flexibility
and scalability as well as low power
consumption, the OmniSwitch 6250
runs the field-proven Alcatel-Lucent
Operating System (AOS), providing
an outstanding edge solution for
highly available, self-protective, easily
managed and eco-friendly networks.
The OmniSwitch 6250 family is an
evolution of the current Alcatel-Lucent
OmniStack
6200 Stackable LAN Switch
product family, embedding the latest
technology and AOS innovations.
Solutions benefiting from the
OmniSwitch 6250 family of
switches are:
• Edge of small- to medium-sized
networks
• Branch office enterprise
work groups
• Residential/metro Ethernet
triple play applications
FEATURES BENEFITS
OmniSwitch 6250 switches offer innovative half-rack-wide models for a great
variety of switch combination deployments
Provides simplified selection with only two enterprise models: Power-over-
Ethernet (PoE) and non-PoE
• Reduces sparing and inventory costs
• Allows any combination of PoE and non-PoE, up to 416 ports
OmniSwitch 6250 switches are highly efficient and optimized in their form
factor, power consumption and acoustic output
Small form factor and low noise output make the OmniSwitch 6250 ideal for
collocation environments. The low power consumption reduces operating
expenses and cooling costs, lowering operating expenditures (OPEX), resulting
in faster return on investment (ROI).
Developed to satisfy customers’ requests for feature-rich, cost-effective,
10/100 stackable switch built on the latest technologies
Leads the industry in price/feature-performance ratio and offers customers a
cost-efficient network technology upgrade, without the necessity to move to
a higher priced, layer-2+ Gigabit solution
Feature-rich services incorporated in the operating system:
• Integrated security including Access Guardian, 802.1x and captive portal
• Alcatel-Lucent virtual chassis design provides resiliency and 5G performance
• Quality of service (QoS) and static, RIP routing and IPv6
Outstanding list of features and performance for supporting scalable, real-time
voice, data and video applications for converged networks
OmniSwitch 6250 switches run the same AOS as the other OmniSwitch
products and are fully manageable by Alcatel-Lucent CLI, WebView browser,
the OmniVista
network management system and the Alcatel-Lucent 5620
Service Aware Manager (SAM)
Existing AOS customers/users are immediately familiar with the product from
day one, reducing their ownership and training costs. New users may choose the
method of switch access most beneficial to their needs
Limited Lifetime Warranty Software and Hardware Support included The lifetime warranty eliminates service program costs and ongoing service
renewals, lowering total cost of ownership (TCO) and allowing customers to reach
ROI targets more quickly.
