DS1404009 - Avaya Nortel Passport 8108GBIC Edge Switch

Description

The RADVISION DS1404009, identified as a tel Passport Edge Switch, represents a specialized networking device intended for deployment at the edge of an enterprise or telecommunications network. Its primary function is to provide a secure and reliable point of connectivity, aggregating traffic from end devices or connecting to the wider network infrastructure. The inclusion of a GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) slot signifies its capability to support modular network interfaces, allowing for flexible uplink options or specialized connectivity depending on the required network topology. As part of the Avaya Nortel Passport series, this switch benefits from the robust design and feature set associated with that product line, adapted for edge deployment scenarios. While specific port counts and speeds may vary based on the installed GBIC module, the core purpose of the DS1404009 is to extend network services efficiently and reliably to the network's periphery. This could include applications in branch offices, campus networks, or service provider environments where compact and dedicated edge functionality is required. The 'tel' designation suggests a potential focus on telecommunications applications or integration within telco-grade network deployments. This implies a high degree of reliability, potentially advanced traffic management features tailored for voice or data services, and adherence to stringent industry standards. The DS1404009 serves as a critical building block for extending network reach and functionality where needed.
