ERS 5510

The Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5510 models are 1 rack unit high next-generation stackable 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Layer 3 routing switches designed to provide high-density Gigabit desktop connectivity to mid-size and large enterprise customers' wiring closets.

The Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5510 is available in two models:

• Ethernet Routing Switch 5510-48T features 48 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports for desktop switching and two built-in SFP (Small Form factor Pluggable) GBIC ports for uplink. Port 47 and Port 48 offer configuration flexibility by allowing the network administrator to configure each port as either 10/100/1000 or make use of the built-in GBIC. As many as eight models of the Ethernet Routing Switch 5510-48T can be stacked to achieve up to 384 10/100/1000 ports for high-density desktop switching.
• Ethernet Routing Switch 5510-24T offers 24 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports for desktop switching and two built-in SFP GBIC ports for uplink. Port 23 and Port 24 offer configuration flexibility as either a 10/100/1000 or a built-in SFP GBIC. The Ethernet Routing Switch 5510-24T and 5510-48T models may be combined in a single stack for maximum flexibility.

Key Features:

• Up to 384 ports of Gigabit desktop connectivity in an 8 rack unit high design—the highest density in the industry.
• Industry-leading Gigabit Ethernet performance with innovative stacking using FAST stack (Flexible Advanced Stacking Technology)—providing up to 640 Gbps.
• High-performance switch fabric of 160 Gbps assures wire speed operation with no packet loss.
• Hardware based Layer 3 routing at wire-speed and across the stack.*
• Intelligence to the network edge with QoS
