Enterprise Solution
ECS4510 Series
L2+ Gigabit Ethernet Stackable Switch
Product Overview
The Edgecore ECS4510 series includes high-performance Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2+ switches featuring 28 or 52 ports; 24 /48
10/100/1000BASE-T ports, two 10G SFP+ ports, and one 10G expansion slot for a dual-port module. The switch is ideal for
high-performance server aggregations, such as enterprise data centers, where it can connect high-end or network-attached file
servers through fiber ports. It can also deployed as a backbone upgrade, or to provide Gigabit-to-the-desktop for power users.
This switch is packed with features and is a cost-effective solution that brings continuous availability, enhanced security, and
advanced QoS to the network edge, while maintaining simplicity of management.
Key Features and Benefits
Performance and Scalability
The ECS4510 series includes high-performance Gigabit
Ethernet Layer 2+ managed switches with 128/176 Gbps
switching capacity. The switches deliver wire-speed switching
performance on all Gigabit ports, taking full advantage of
existing high-performance PCs, significantly improving the
responsiveness of applications and file transfer times.
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
up to 65 instances.
The ECS4510 series supports 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 ECS4510 series supports G.8032 Ethernet Ring Protection
Switching, 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 50 msec.
Comprehensive QoS
The ECS4510 series offers advanced QoS for marking,
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 and DSCP to provide
optimal performance for real-time applications. Weighted Round
Robin (WRR) and strict priority ensure differential prioritization of
packet flows and avoid congestion of ingress and egress
queues.
Asymmetric bidirectional rate-limiting, per port or per traffic
class, preserves network bandwidth and allows maximum
control of network resources.
The ECS4510 series supports Three Color Marker and Policing
Single rate: Committed Information Rate (CIR) Two rate: CIR +
Peak Information Rate (PIR) Traffic Policing: Which drop or
remark the priority tags of packets when they exceed burst size.

DATASHEET
Enhanced Security
Port security limits the total number of devices from using a
switch port and protects against MAC flooding attacks.
IEEE 802.1X port-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.
IP Source Guard prevents people from using IP addresses that
were not assigned to them.
Access Control Lists (ACLs) can be used to restrict access to
sensitive network resources by denying packets based on
source and destination MAC addresses, IP addresses, or
TCP/UDP ports. ACLs are hardware supported, so switching
performance is not compromised.
Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL/HTTPS)
encrypt Telnet and web access to the switch, providing secure
network management.
Private VLANs (traffic segmentation per port) isolate edge ports
to ensure user privacy.
DAI (Dynamic ARP Inspection) is a security feature that
validates Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) packets in a
network. DAI allows a network administrator to intercept, log,
and discard ARP packets with invalid MAC-to-IP address
bindings.
Hardware Stacking
ECS4510 series switch is able to stack up to 4 units and extend
its port count.
Stack acting as a single device and a single IP address for
remote management/administration of the whole units.
Simple 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.
Layer 3 Features IPv4 Static Route
The ECS4510 series supports hardware-based IPv4 routing for
maximum performance.
Routing protocols, such as RIP v1/v2, and static routes are
supported.
