Line Rate Switches

[ramkunta]

Hi,

Could some one kindly explain or point to a document which gives some explanation on Line Rate Switches?

For examples, newly launched 3560C and 2960C are (apparently) line rate switches, see the link below:

Thanks and Regds,

Here is a simple explanation what "line rate" means:

From this I think you can understand what they refer to cisco line rate switches.

Cheers,
