1 | Modular Switching with SwitchBlade
Layer 3 Modular
Switches
The SwitchBlade SB4100 series, with its
versatile modular chassis, is ideal for multiple
tenant unit and central point aggregation for
Metro Area Networks (MAN) and campus
networks, and as an enterprise mid-tier
aggregation device.
Thanks to very sophisticated multicast and Quality
of Service features the SB4100 series also fits
perfectly into education and government networks
requiring separation of multicast traffic. In addition it
provides the perfect solution for utility companies
that need to control and monitor their
infrastructure, but also wish to offer multimedia
services like Voice, Data,Video and Web-Browsing
using the same network structure.
The SB4100 series combines hardware-based,
wirespeed, non-blocking switching and IP/IPX
routing with advanced, flexible Policy-Based
Quality of Service, rich multicast support, and a
comprehensive set of configuration and control
features designed to simplify administration and
maintenance tasks.The SB4100 series delivers
hardware-based switching for Layer 2, Layer 3,
and Layer 4+ with no performance penalty
in a wide variety of interface types and
feature options.
Example:
SB4100 Series in a MAN or Campus Network Setting
In the scenario shown, a Metropolitan Ethernet Provider (MEP) is provisioning an Ethernet service to a number
of Multi-Tenant Unit (MTU) complexes. Each complex owner is providing tenants with voice and data services
and requires 1000Mbps feeds to each building and rate limited Ethernet service to each tenant.An Allied Telesyn
SB4100 series chassis-based switch forms the network backbone in each of the larger MTU complexes, with
smaller standalone Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet switches providing the aggregation from smaller complex buildings.
Also part of the solution, are Allied Telesyn IEEE 802.11b wireless solutions for network access, media converters
for riser and cross-building connectivity and Layer 2 switches for LAN aggregation.
