3Com 3C17512 8800 2 x Ports 10GBase-X Expansion Switch Module

Description

The 3Com 3C17512 is a high-performance Expansion Switch Module specifically designed for the 3Com 8800 series chassis. This module adds two 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) ports, operating under the 10GBase-X standard, to the switch. These ports typically utilize XFP (10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable) transceivers, offering flexibility in choosing between optical or copper interfaces based on network requirements and distances. This module is crucial for upgrading the capabilities of 3Com 8800 switches, enabling them to support high-speed uplinks to core routers or other switches, as well as high-bandwidth connections to servers or storage devices. The addition of 10GbE ports significantly increases the overall throughput and performance of the network, making it suitable for demanding enterprise environments, data centers, and service provider networks. By integrating the 3C17512 module, network administrators can enhance the scalability and performance of their existing 3Com 8800 infrastructure. It allows for the creation of robust network backbones and aggregation layers capable of handling large volumes of traffic efficiently. The module's design ensures seamless integration with the 8800 series chassis, providing a reliable solution for high-speed networking needs.
