Features of LAN-Based Switching
Technologies
Cisco Catalyst switches allow full integration of voice, video, and data
applications in the Cisco ICS 7750 system. The Cisco ICS 7750 system can
include the following switches:
Catalyst 3524-PWR XL Switch, page 7-1
Catalyst 4000 Switches, page 7-6
Catalyst 6000 Switches, page 7-7
The Catalyst 3524-PWR XL switch and Catalyst 4000 switches allow LANs to
fully integrate voice, video, and data applications. Catalyst 6000 switches are
primarily for enterprise and service provider environments.
Catalyst 3524-PWR XL Switch
The Catalyst 3524-PWR XL switch was developed for use with the
Cisco ICS 7750 to allow full integration of voice, video, and data applications.
The Catalyst 3524-PWR XL switch has 24 10/100 switched ports with integrated
inline power, which provides DC current to devices that can accept power over
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling, such as the Cisco 7900 family of IP
phones. The Catalyst 3524-PWR XL switch also has two Gigabit Interface
Converter (GBIC)-based Gigabit Ethernet ports, which support one full-duplex
link (in a point-to-point configuration) or up to nine half-duplex links (in a stack
configuration) to other Gigabit Ethernet devices. Figure 7-1 shows the front panel
of the Catalyst 3524-PWR XL switch.
