Enterasys C2RPS-POE Scheda Tecnica
Product Overview
The Enterasys C2 is a high-performance, Fast 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 C2 is an excellent choice for
environments that require complete multi-layer switching capabilities and support for high density
10/100 Ethernet ports along with Gigabit Ethernet ports, and dynamic routing capabilities. The
C2 is well-suited for 100 Mbps networks that have a short-term plan to migrate to a predominantly
Gigabit Ethernet network. In addition to its complete multi-layer switching capabilities, the C2 also
provides IPv4 routing as well as multicast routing protocols. Along with a switch capacity of 97.6
Gbps, the C2 provides up to 48 10/100 Ethernet ports as well as 4 Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports.
Leveraging the C2’s wire-rate stacking capability, as many as 8 C2s can be interconnected in a
single stack to create a virtual switch that provides 780 Gbps of capacity and up to 384 10/100
Ethernet ports as well as 32 Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports.

Robust Quality of Service (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 C2’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 C2’s intelligent queuing mechanisms ensure
that mission-critical applications receive prioritized access to network resources.

The C2 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 switch 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).
