Features
The following table lists the major features of the IntraCore 8000 switch.
Feature Description
Media Flexibility Expansion module options include 8-port 10/100 Base-TX
switched Ethernet modules and single-port Gigabit Ethernet
modules with GBIC slots.
High Density Supports up to 192 10/100 switched Ethernet ports or up to 3
switched Gigabit Ethernet ports and 24 10/100 switched Ether-
net ports in a single stacking unit. This saves space in crowded
equipment rooms.
ASIC-Based Architec-
ture
ASIC-based packet processing provides wire speed perfor-
mance on all interfaces.
High Performance
16Gbps Backplane
The system supports current requirements for multi-service
voice, video, and data applications with bandwidth to spare.
The high-capacity backplane is designed so that it may be
scaled up to 80 Gbps, extending the useful life of the chassis.
Multiple Priority
Queues
The “application aware” system ensures that mission critical
applications get the bandwidth and priority they need, even
under heavy traffic conditions. When network congestion
occurs, low latency requirements are managed by the system.
Stackable Form Factor
with modular expan-
sion options
Each stack unit supports three option slots that can be custom-
ized to meet customer configuration requirements. Unique
stacking design delivers scalable system bandwidth assuring
maximum system performance regardless of configuration.
Configuration Flexibil-
ity and Growth
Expansion modules can be mixed and matched in any configu-
ration and quantity to meet design requirements. You can add
capacity whenever your business requires it.
GBIC Modules for
Gigabit Ethernet Media
Flexibility
The two GBIC Gigabit Ethernet modules can be configured
with any combination of 1000SX, 1000LX or 1000LX (Long
Haul) GBIC interfaces. Either Asanté or third party GBIC inter-
faces can be used, and the interfaces can be “hot swapped.”
This means that GBIC interfaces can be re-deployed based on
the user’s applications.
Installation Options The system can be rack-mounted to save space.
