CSG3000 Series Hardware Guide
At a Glance
The Versa Cloud Services Gateway (CSG) 3000 series appliances deliver carrier-grade reliability, high performance,
line-rate switching, and high compute capacity for enterprise-grade routing, SD-WAN, next-generation security, and
uCPE scenarios. They are designed for deployment in large enterprise branches, campus sites, and data centers that
require advanced secure SD-WAN along with comprehensive advanced application and cloud-intelligent SD-WAN
services on premises.
The CSG3000 appliances run Versa Operating System
integrated security, including NGFW, UTM, ZTNA, application intelligence, and application policy-based forwarding
along with line-rate Layer 2/Layer 3 switching, scalable advanced routing, multitenancy, and big-data–based analytics.
The CSG3000 series appliances come with LAN and WAN ports. The ports provide support for Ethernet and non-
Ethernet (ADSL2+/VDSL2 and T1/E1) interfaces and for built-in wireless, including 4G, LTE, LTE-advanced-pro, and
sub-6 5G.
Copper LAN ports are multi-rate Gigabit Ethernet ports with built-in PoE++ (Power over Ethernet) capacities. The
CSG3000 series appliances high-speed fiber uplink and downlink ports, including 25/10 Gigabit Ethernet and 100
Gigabit Ethernet, provide fast connectivity to other network elements in the LAN environment.
CSG3000 series appliances are designed with built-in high compute capacity, including multiple core x86 CPUs,
memory, and storage, to help in hosting third-party virtual machines (VMs), thus eliminating the need for separate
hardware platforms and simplifying network deployments.
CSG3000 appliances provide the following features:
• Management Ethernet ports
◦ One RJ45 1-Gigabit Ethernet port for management
◦ One RJ45 serial console port for management
• Two RJ45 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports for WAN Interfaces
• Two SFP+ 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports for WAN Interfaces
• Eight RJ45 10/5/2.5/1-Gigabit Ethernet PoE++ (60-W) ports for LAN Interfaces
• Sixteen RJ45 2.5/1-Gigabit Ethernet PoE (30-W) ports for LAN Interfaces
• Four SFP+ 28 25/10-Gigabit Ethernet ports for LAN Interfaces
