3Com 3C17536 Switch 8800 4-Port 10GBase-X QUAD IPv6 Module 4

Product Description

The 3Com 3C17536 is a high-performance expansion module specifically engineered for the 3Com Switch 8800 platform. This module equips the switch with four 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBase-X) ports, offering substantial bandwidth for demanding network applications such as high-speed server connections, storage area networks (SANs), and inter-switch links. The inclusion of IPv6 support ensures that the network infrastructure is prepared for the future of IP addressing and routing, enabling seamless transition to the next generation of internet protocols. This quad-port module is designed to enhance the scalability and performance of the Switch 8800 chassis. By providing multiple 10GbE interfaces, it allows network administrators to aggregate significant traffic loads, connect high-performance servers, and build robust backbone networks. The 10GBase-X standard utilizes Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP+) transceivers, offering flexibility in choosing the appropriate optical or copper cabling solutions based on distance and environment requirements. Ideal for enterprise data centers and large campus networks, the 3C17536 module empowers the Switch 8800 to handle increasing traffic demands and support advanced network services. Its integration into the modular chassis allows for easy deployment and upgrades, ensuring that the network infrastructure can evolve with the business needs. The combination of high speed and IPv6 compatibility makes this module a strategic component for building a future-proof and high-performing network.
