The Nortel Ethernet Switch 470 product

family is a stackable solution that

provides resiliency, security and conver-

gence readiness required by today’s

application- and competition-driven

enterprise networks. The Ethernet

Switch 470 family delivers Layer 2

switching with Power over Ethernet

models for simplified network deploy-

ments to help drive lower Total Cost of

Ownership.

The Ethernet Switch 470 is available

in four models: the Ethernet Switch

470-24T with 24 10/100 ports plus two

Gigabit Interface Converters (GBICs)

ports; the Ethernet Switch 470-48T

with 48 10/100 ports and two GBICs;

the Ethernet Switch 470-24T-PWR

with 24 10/100 ports supporting Power

over Ethernet plus two GBICs; and the

Ethernet Switch 470-48T with 48

10/100 ports supporting Power over

Ethernet and two GBICs. All models

include built-in stacking ports, redun-

dant power support and are available

in compact one Rack Unit (RU)

high design.

High-density desktop

switching

Up to eight Ethernet Switch 470-24T,

470-48T, 470-24T-PWR or 470-48T-

PWR may be combined in a single stack

to support up to 384 10/100 ports and

managed as a single entity. The Ethernet

Switch 470-48T and 470-48T-PWR offer

additional flexibility for uplink connection

as ports 47 and 48 can be configured as

either 10/100Base-T or GBIC. The

Ethernet Switch 470-24T and 470-24T-

PWR may utilize all 26 ports simulta-

neously. The 2.56-Gbps cascading

bandwidth on these switches offers dedi-

cated bandwidth between the switches

without sacrificing any uplink ports. The Ethernet Switch 460-24T-PWR can also be stacked with Ethernet Switch 470 or 470-PWR. The uplink ports can be used for connections to backbone switches such as the Ethernet Routing Switch 8600, 8300, 1600 or 5500. Power over Ethernet (470-PWR) IEEE 802.3af compliant The Ethernet Switch 470-PWR provides IEEE 802.

Unit Replacement Feature In the unlikely event that a switch fails in a stack, the affected switch can easily be replaced without disrupting the stack. This feature provides the capability of upgrading a new unit with the configuration of the affected unit offline, before adding the new unit to the stack. The configuration of the affected switch may be copied from the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server to the new switch.

Custom Autonegotiation Advertisements (CANA) This feature enables the network manager to tune the capabilities that a particular Ethernet port can advertise via autonegotiation. The capabilities include half-duplex and full-duplex modes with speeds of 10 or 100 Mbps. Autonegotiated Ethernet ports establish a connection based upon the highest common capabilities. This feature saves the network manager from having to go to each workstation and switch to configure a “fixed” speed.

configurations but also access to the infrastructure through these switches. This software feature limits access to only network authorized and trusted personnel, including full tracking of network connections. Network access is granted or denied via proper MAC address (up to a maximum of 448) identification. In addition, with the Distributed Access List Security feature, network access is granted or denied on a per-port basis.
PAGE 7
ASCII Configuration File The Ethernet Switch 470 can download a user-editable ASCII configuration file from a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server. The ASCII configuration file can be loaded automatically at boot time or on-demand using the management systems (console menus or CLI). Once downloaded, the configuration file automatically configures the switch or stack according to the CLI commands in the file.
