NetVanta 1544F - Fiber, Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet Switch - 1700546G1#120

The NetVanta 1544F is a managed, 28-port, all-fiber, Layer 3, Gigabit Ethernet switch designed as an access layer or network backbone switch for small to medium businesses. With the combination of the advanced multi-layer switching fabric, high-bandwidth capabilities, and enhanced Quality of Service features, the NetVanta 1544F is ideal as an aggregation switch for high-bandwidth VoIP, Gigabit-to-the-Desktop deployments, converged voice and data networks, and campus applications.

Hardware

The NetVanta 1544F rackmount switch provides 28 Gigabit Ethernet ports, consisting of 24 standard 1 Gbps Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) Ethernet ports and four enhanced 2.5 Gbps SFP ports. The enhanced SFP ports support standard 1 Gbps up to 2.5 Gbps data rates. Together the four enhanced SFP ports can provide up to 20 Gbps of bi-directional bandwidth between interconnected NetVanta 1544 switches.

Multi-layer Switching

The NetVanta 1544F supports advanced multi-layer (Layer 2 and Layer 3) switching. It supports static routes, RIP V1/V2, OSPF, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), allowing it to easily scale from small and medium-sized businesses to enterprise-sized customers.

Standards Protocols

Based on the ADTRAN® Operating System (AOS), this device offers support for Link Aggregation (802.3ad); Port Mirroring; port-based switching features including Broadcast Storm Control, Spanning Tree (802.1D) and Rapid Spanning Tree (802.1w) for faster network convergence, link redundancy, and recovery from topology changes. Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) auto-discovers neighboring Ethernet devices, simplifying integration into multi-vendor environments.

Virtual LANs (VLANs)

All NetVanta switches support 802.1Q trunking and up to 255 VLANs to allow network managers to separate broadcast domains for efficient network performance and traffic control. NetVanta 1544F also supports dynamic VLANs assigned via 802.1x. This is an ideal way to make sure users are automatically assigned to the correct VLAN, based on the login. Private VLANs are also available to provide extra security by isolating upstream traffic from user ports.
