3Com 3C17531 8800 24 x Ports 1000Base-T RJ-45 Advanced Expansion Module

Description

The 3Com 3C17531 is a high-density Gigabit Ethernet expansion module specifically designed to enhance the capabilities of the 3Com 8800 series modular switches. This module adds 24 individual 1000Base-T ports, each supporting Gigabit Ethernet speeds over standard RJ-45 copper cabling. Its primary purpose is to significantly increase the number of network access points available from a single switch chassis, making it ideal for environments requiring extensive connectivity for end-user devices, workstations, or other network appliances. This module is engineered for seamless integration with the 8800 series platform. It supports hot-swapping, allowing network administrators to install or replace the module without disrupting the operation of the rest of the switch. This feature is crucial for maintaining network uptime and facilitating efficient maintenance procedures. The 3C17531 leverages standard Ethernet technology, ensuring broad compatibility with a wide range of network devices and cabling infrastructure. By deploying the 3C17531, organizations can expand their network capacity and support a larger number of devices at Gigabit speeds. This is particularly beneficial in enterprise networks, campus environments, or data centers where high-speed access is required for numerous endpoints. The module contributes to the overall flexibility and scalability of the 3Com 8800 switch, allowing it to adapt to evolving network demands.
