he way in which businesses use LANs is changing and the performance requirement at the
edge of the network is becoming more demanding. IP Telephony and other collaborative
edge of the network is becoming more demanding. IP Telephony and other collaborative
applications are driving more traffic to the edge of the network. As file sizes continue to grow,
users need more bandwidth. Quite simply, the convergence of voice, video, data, and storage
enables users to do more from their desktop. Enterprises need to be able to address today’s
increased demands and still prepare for the unknown demands of tomorrow. By re-assessing
how they’re using the wiring closet, they can achieve both goals, and be assured that their
investments will be protected for a long time to come.

Highest-density Gigabit desktop switching
The BayStack 5510-48T Switch 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 SFP GBIC. As many as eight
BayStack 5510-48T Switches can be stacked to achieve up to 384 10/100/1000 ports for
highest-density desktop switching.
