MACH 3000 
The MACH 3000 inherited its ability to
manage heterogeneous network struc-
tures and complex applications. The
combination of F network manage-
ment makes it possible for the first time
to manage an intermeshed backbone
automatically and for all devices. The
backbone switch includes security
features that can be configured specially
for each specific group of users. This
allows you to prevent communication
over the network from non-authorized
and unknown subscribers. The MACH
3000 automatically detects and reports
new subscribers.
Gigabit ETHERNET and Layer 3 Switching
The MACH 3000 is designed for 
Fast ETHERNET and Gigabit ETHERNET
operation on layer 2 and layer 3. Another
special feature of the new high-perform-
ance switch is that the user buys only as
The high-performance MACH 3000
switch, specially designed for
high-demand backbone usage,
guarantees extremely high safety
against failures thanks to a 
special new architecture. This
switch does not use double com-
ponents as in traditional redun-
dancy concepts, thus providing
cost advantages. The MACH 3000
is developed so that it can grow
along with the applications on the
network. With a switching band-
width of 40 Gbit/s, the MACH 3000
supports up to 40 Gigabit ETHER-
NET connections or as many as
160 fast Ethernet ports.
