Extreme Networks C5G124-48P2 Enterasys C-Series C5 C5G124-48P2 48 Port PoE Gigabit Managed Switch

The Extreme Networks C5 is a scalable, high-performance Gigabit Ethernet switch that provides support for the bandwidth-intensive and latency-sensitive requirements of today's demanding business applications. The C5 is an excellent choice for environments that require complete multi-layer switching capabilities and support for high density 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports and 10GE uplinks. The C5 also includes dynamic IPv4 and IPv6 routing and switching built into the hardware and policy-based automation capabilities for advanced edge deployments.

Future-proofed with 802.3at high power PoE and IPv6 routing support
Automatic discovery and deployment of VoIP services
High-availability stacking assures reliable network operations
Automated management features reduce operational costs
Investment protection via comprehensive lifetime warranty
2.11Tbps capacity and 809.5Mpps

The C5 incorporates the new 802.3at high-power PoE on all ports, which translates into increased power provisioning for power-hungry devices such as Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) IP surveillance cameras, IP videophones, third party 802.11n access points and virtual desktops. Built-in high-power PoE support is a cost effective alternative for customers in place of purchasing separate PoE midspans, which can take away valuable rack space, add cost and contribute more cabling to the wiring closet.

The C5 provides high port density in a 1U footprint and is environmentally friendly by design. The C5's overall energy efficiency is further enhanced by a low current draw and an extreme tolerance for high environmental temperatures. A highly-scalable architecture and a comprehensive lifetime warranty ensure that a C5 network investment will sustain a secure, feature-rich and cost-effective network well into the future.

The C5'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 to provide guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) for critical voice and video network traffic. In conjunction with its non-blocking L2 switching and L3 routing architecture, the C5's intelligent queuing mechanisms ensure that mission-critical applications receive prioritized access to network resources.

Extreme Networks C5 stackable switches address emerging business application needs such as automatically supporting voice, video and unified communications at an attractive price point.
