7210 SAS-X Introduction and Features 7210 SAS-X Introduction and Features 7210 SAS-X supports line-rate switching and provides better service scale along with richer QoS capabilities, useful for first level of access ethernet aggregation in small and medium access networks. The 7210 SAS-X has one 10/100BASE-TX management port for dedicated management access.
7210 SAS-X Overview Switch Architecture The 7210 SAS-X 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, that effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection.
Provides three isolated alarm inputs and three dry contacts that relay outputs through a DB-15 interface on the front panel • Hot-swappable, redundant, load sharing AC or DC power and fan modules Connectivity The 7210 SAS-X includes the following connectivity features: • 100/1000 fiber-optic SFP ports. • 10G XFP ports •...
