    NTRODUCTION VERVIEW The ECS3510-28F is an intelligent Layer 2 switch designed for delivering Fiber- To-The-Home (FTTH) for high-speed Internet access. Deployed at the service provider’s central office (CO), the switch supports up to 24 subscribers through 100BASE-FX single-fiber downlink connections to remote CPEs (customer premises equipment).
  • Page 24: Description Of Hardware

    | Introduction HAPTER Description of Hardware WITCH RCHITECTURE The switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. The switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection.
