ECIS4500 PoE Series Product Specifications
Key Features
Performance and Scalability
The ECIS4500 PoE series are high-performance Gigabit Ethernet
Layer 2 managed switches with 24/20 Gbps switching capacity. The
switches deliver wire-speed switching performance on all Gigabit
ports, allowing users to take full advantage of existing
high-performance Gigabit integrated servers and PCs by
significantly improving the responsiveness of applications and file
transfer times.
The two/four SFP ports provides uplink flexibility, and allows the
insertion of fiber or copper Gigabit transceivers, creating up to 2/4
Gbps high-speed uplinks to service provider, corporate, or campus
networks, reducing bottlenecks and increasing the performance of
the access network. The switches also support digital diagnostic
monitoring (DDM) for SFP transceivers.
Continuous Availability
The IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol provides a loop-free
network and redundant links to the core network with rapid
convergence, to ensure faster recovery from failed links, enhancing
overall network stability and reliability.
The IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol runs STP per VLAN
base, providing Layer 2 load sharing on redundant links.
The ECIS4500 PoE series support IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation
Control Protocol (LACP). It increases bandwidth by automatically
aggregating several physical links together as a logical trunk and
offers load balancing and fault tolerance for uplink connections.
The ECIS4500 PoE series support fast failover ring protection
(E-Ring) with the ability for the network to detect and recover from
incidents without impacting users, meeting the most demanding
quality and availability requirements. Rapid recovery time when
problems do occur is as low as 20 ms.
Enhanced Security
Port security limits the total number of devices from using a switch
port and protects against MAC flooding attacks.
IEEE 802.1X IP-based or MAC-based access control ensures all
users are authorized before being granted access to the network.
When a user is authenticated, the VLAN, QoS and security policy are
automatically applied the port where the user is connected,
otherwise the port is grouped in a guest VLAN with limited access.
DHCP snooping allows a switch to protect a network from rogue
DHCP servers that offer invalid IP addresses.
Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL/HTTPS) encrypt
Telnet and web access to the switch, providing secure network
management.
Dynamic VLAN assignment for user authentication and
location-independent access to the network.
The ECIS4500 PoE series also support local database, RADIUS and
TACACS+ authentication methods to secure your network.
Service Monitoring and Management
The ECIS4500 PoE series support per VLAN mirroring, allowing
administrators to monitor all incoming traffic in one or more VLANs
by sending a mirror image of that traffic to a configured mirror port.
The switches also provide the capability to manage service
availability, identify connectivity and performance issues, and isolate
problems from a remote location without dispatching an engineer
onsite.
Comprehensive QoS
The ECIS4500 PoE series offer advanced QoS for shaping,
classification, and scheduling to deliver best-in-class performance
for data, voice, and video traffic at wire speed. Eight egress queues
per port enable differentiated management of up to eight traffic
types through the switch.
Traffic is prioritized according to 802.1p to provide optimal
performance for real-time applications. Weighted Round Robin
(WRR) and Strict Priority Queuing (SPQ) ensure differential
prioritization of packet flows and avoid congestion of ingress and
egress queues.
Robust Multicast Control
IGMP snooping prevents the flooding of multicast traffic by
dynamically configuring switch ports so that multicast traffic is
forwarded to only those ports associated with an IP multicast
receiver. IGMP increases the performance of networks by reducing
multicast traffic flooding.
IGMP groups allow you to create customer packages for IP-TV
channels, making switch configuration easy. IGMP Filtering prevents
subscribers seeing unsubscribed IP-TV channels. And, IGMP
Throttling allows you to set how many IP-TV channels a subscriber
can receive simultaneously.
Superior Management
An industry-standard command-line interface (CLI) accessed
through the console port or Telnet, provides a familiar user interface
and command set for users to manage the switch.
An embedded user-friendly web interface helps users to quickly and
simply configure switches.
The ECIS4500 PoE series support SNMPv1,2c,3 and four-group
RMON. The switches provide a complete private MIB for the
configuration of most functions via the SNMP protocol.
Administrators can upgrade and restore firmware and configuration
files via TFTP.
The switches also provide the AAA (Authentication, Authorization
and Accounting) via RADIUS or TACACS+ enables centralized
control of the switches. Access rights can be authorized per user
and account for all actions performed by administrators.
PoE PSE Support
The ECIS4500 PoE series support PoE as a Power Sourcing
Equipment (PSE) device to any attached devices, such as VoIP
phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras, all over
existing Ethernet cables.
The switches are compliant with IEEE 802.3at. Copper ports 1 to 8
can provide up to 30 Watts or 15.4 Watts power per port. The total
PoE power budget is 120 W/240 W. In particular, ECIS4500-8P2T4F
supports 2 ports Ultra PoE (60W) to power devices with greater
power, such as 802.11ac APs, PTZ surveillance cameras, or network
routers.
Armed with these powerful features, the ECIS4500 PoE series
switches are easy to prioritize, partition and organize the network for
higher reliability and quality services.
