BENEFITS
|
|
• Versatile features and models offering high-density
Gigabit and 10 Gigabit interfaces
|
• With the variety of interfaces and models, the OmniSwitch 6860 family
meets any customer configuration need and offers excellent investment
|
|
• Up to eight switches can be connected using Virtual
Chassis technology to create a single chassis-like
entity with up to 32 10 Gigabit uplinks and 384
Gigabit ports
|
• The OmniSwitch 6860 Virtual Chassis increases system redundancy,
resiliency and high availability while simplifying deployment, operations and
management of the network.
|
|
• IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at compliant PoE of 30 W per
port on all ports
|
• With its advanced PoE capabilities and high density of PoE ports, the
OmniSwitch 6860 is ideal for converged campus deployments by offering
|
|
• The enhanced models of the OmniSwitch 6860 family
support up to 60 W of PoE per port on four ports
|
deployment flexibility, simplifying the wiring and reducing the time to
deploy edge devices such as VoIP phones, surveillance cameras, 802.11ac
access points and emerging devices that require higher than 30 W, such
as video displays or even a small network switch or a thin virtual desktop
infrastructure (VDI) client.
|
• Hardware-accelerated DPI available on all models
• Application monitoring and fingerprinting are available
on the enhanced models
|
• DPI technology allows for real-time classification of flows at the application
level, monitoring and QoS treatment to assign higher priority and more
|
Advanced Unified Access features for converged campus
network solutions in application fluent network
• Integrated Policy with dynamic User Network Profiles
|
• By enabling the application monitoring functionality on the OmniSwitch
6860, network administrators can obtain a comprehensive view of up to
1000 applications running in the network. This type of visibility can be
used to optimize the performance of the network as well as apply adequate
control.
• Unified access and application fluent networks provide simplified network
architecture with automated controls and enhanced security for both wired
and wireless users. Offers enhanced management and security for reduced
operational complexity costs
|
|
• Extensive security features for network access control
(NAC), policy enforcement and attack containment
|
• User network profiles add intelligence to the network to automatically adapt
as users move around the corporation without compromising the security.
|
|
• SIP Fluency to provision and monitor QoS treatment of
SIP flows
|
• With its advanced capabilities, the OmniSwitch 6860 shows outstanding
performance when supporting real-time voice, data and video applications.
