C-Series C3
Policy-based Gigabit Ethernet Stackable L2/L3/L4 Edge Switch
DATASHEET
Product Overview
The Enterasys C3 is a high-performance, Gigabit Ethernet edge switch that provides scalable,
wire-rate performance in support of the bandwidth-intensive and delay-sensitive requirements of
today’s demanding applications. With support for 16,000 MAC addresses, the C3 is an excellent
choice for environments that require complete multi-layer switching capabilities and support for
high density 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports, 10GE ports, and dynamic routing capabilities. The
C3 is well-suited for Gigabit Ethernet networks as well as 100 Mbps networks that are about to
migrate to a predominantly Gigabit Ethernet network with 10GE and/or dynamic IPv4 / IPv6 routing
requirements. In addition to its complete multi-layer switching capabilities, the C3 also supports
both IPv4 and IPv6 routing as well as multicast routing protocols. Along with a switch capacity of
192 Gbps, the C3 provides up to 48 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports as well as 2 10GE uplink ports.
Leveraging the C3’s wire-rate stacking capability, as many as 8 C3s (both 24-port and 48-port
combinations) can be interconnected in a single stack to create a virtual switch that provides 1.54
Tbps of capacity and up to 384 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports as well as 16 10GE uplink ports.

Robust QoS features enable strong support for integrated multimedia networks, including Voice over
IP (VoIP) and video, as well as all types of data-intensive applications. The C3’s highly customizable
Layer 2/3/4 packet classification capabilities work together with the 8 hardware-based priority
queues associated with each Ethernet port to support a suite of differentiated services with as
many as 8 distinct priority levels. In conjunction with its non-blocking L2 switching and L3 routing
architecture, the C3’s intelligent queuing mechanisms ensure that mission-critical applications
receive prioritized access to network resources.

The C3 provides a secure network by utilizing its authentication and security features, which can be
applied at the port level or at the user level. Making use of the NMS Policy Manager or a standard
CLI, the Enterasys role-based architecture enables a network administrator to define distinct roles
or profiles that represent operational groups within a business (e.g., employee, executive, guest,
etc). Multiple users/devices per port can be authenticated via IEEE 802.1X, MAC address, or web
authentication, and then assigned a pre-defined operational role. Network operations can be easily
tailored to meet business-oriented requirements by providing each role with individualized access
to network services and applications (e.g., a guest should have different network access privileges
than an employee).
