Core Switch Hardware & Software

[leyakhath muhammed]

Hi,

Please suggest a model which can meet the requirement.

Enterprise IP Software supporting IPv4/IPv6 routing

48 x Gigabit Copper Ports

24 x 10/1 Gigabit Fiber Ports

18 x 1Gigabit Multimode SX SFP fiber transceivers

2 x 10 Gigabit Multimode SR SFP fiber transceivers

Power Supply redundancy (minimum of 350W per power supply)

Backplane specification (minimum of 450Gbps)

Thanks

Hi

You can go with 6807xl chassis and following linecards:
- 1G fiber/copper: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-6800-series-switches/datasheet-c78-733663.html
- 10G : https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-6800-series-switches/datasheet-c78-733662.html

Cisco 9500.

Is there a requirement for PoE on the copper ports?

[balaji.bandi]

I still recommend at this stage 6800, since Cat 9500 is not a chassis (until cisco come with new model in catalyst 9K series).

I would suggest that if you don't need PoE, you look at the Nexus 93108TC-EX. This has 48 100/1000/10G copper ports, and 6 40G/100G ports that can break out to give 24 1G/10G ports. This exactly meets your requirements, is only 1U and is likely to out-perform any chassis switch in terms of throughput and latency.

Hope this helps.
