Nortel Ethernet Switch 5510-24T 24 10/100/1000BASE-T Ports AL1001A04-E5

The Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5510 models are 1 rack unit high next-generation stackable 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Layer 3 routing switches designed to provide high-density Gigabit desktop connectivity to mid-size and large enterprise customers’ wiring closets. Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5510-24T offers 24 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports for desktop switching and two built-in SFP GBIC ports for uplink. Port 23 and Port 24 offer configuration flexibility as either a 10/100/1000 or a built-in SFP GBIC. The Ethernet Routing Switch 5510-24T and 5510-48T models may be combined in a single stack for maximum flexibility.

Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5510-24T Benefits

• High Performance: Unique FAST stacking design means that a full stack yields up to 640 Gbps—the highest stacking bandwidth in the industry today. The Ethernet Routing Switch 5510 has a high-performance Layer 3 switching fabric with 160 Gbps maximum forwarding bandwidth and wire-speed performance. Up to 16 GBIC ports are available for pure uplink connectivity in a full stack—among the highest in the market.
• High Density: Up to eight Ethernet Routing Switch 5510s can be stacked to achieve up to 384 10/100/1000 ports in an 8 rack unit high space for highest-density desktop switching.
• Space Saving: Offered in a compact 1 rack unit high design, allowing for significant space and cost savings in the wiring closet.
• Efficient Deployment and Configuration: Allows for easy addition and deletion of units to the stack without service interruption.
• Cost-Effective Stacking: Cascade modules are not required—has built-in stacking ports for plug-and-play, quicker, and more cost-effective stacking.
• Simplified Network Operations: BoSS for Ethernet Routing Switch 5510 simplifies network operations by reducing the number of steps required for switch software updates.
• Resilient Connectivity for Minimal Network Downtime: Unique Distributed MultiLink Trunking (DMLT) feature by Nortel, means that trunked ports can span multiple units across the stack for fail-safe connectivity to mission critical servers and the network center. Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 Split MultiLink Trunking (SMLT) eliminates single points of failure in the network and allows Ethernet Routing Switch 5510 to have multiple active connections to the network core with all ports active.
• Quality of Service: Allow for bandwidth to be used more efficiently, optimizing existing network resources and capabilities, as well as provide packet classification and marking at the edge of the network, simplifying the QoS deployment at the aggregation and core of the network.
