The switch is ideal for high-performance server aggregations, such as enterprise data center, where it can connect high-end or network-attached files servers over fiber ports. It can also deployed as a backbone upgrade, or to provide Gigabit -to-the-desktop for power users. This switch is packed with features and is a cost-effective solution that brings continuous availability, enhanced security and advanced QoS to the network edge, while maintaining simplicity of management.

Key Features and Benefits | Performance and Scalability

ECS4620 Series is a high performance Gigabit Ethernet Layer 3 managed switch, with 128/176Gbps switching capacity, it delivers wire-speed switching performance on all Gigabit ports, taking full advantage of existing high-performance on PCs, laptops, significantly improving the responsiveness of applications and file transfer times.

Continuous Availability

IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol provides a loop-free network and redundant links to the core network with rapid convergence, to ensure faster recovery from failed links, enhancing overall network stability and reliability.

IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol runs STP per VLAN base, providing Layer 2 load sharing on redundant links up to 32 instances.

The ECS4620 Series supports IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). It increases bandwidth by automatically aggregating several physical links together as a logical trunk and offers load balancing and fault tolerance for uplink connections.

The ECS4620 Series supports G.8032 Ethernet Ring Protection Switching, with the ability for the network to detect and recover from incidents without impacting users, meeting the most demanding quality and availability requirements. Rapid recovery time when problems do occur is as low as 50 msec.

Comprehensive QoS

The ECS4620 Series offers advanced QoS for marking, classification, and scheduling to deliver best-in-class performance for data, voice, and video traffic at wire speed. Eight egress queues per port enable differentiated management of up to eight traffic types through the switch.

Traffic is prioritized according to 802.1p and DSCP to provide optimal performance for real-time applications. Weighted Round Robin (WRR) and strict priority ensure differential prioritization of packet flows and avoid congestion of ingress and egress queues.

Asymmetric bidirectional rate-limiting, per port or per traffic class, preserves network bandwidth and allows maximum control of network resources.

The ECS4620 Series supports Three Color Marker and Policing Single rate: Committed Information Rate (CIR) Two rate: CIR + Peak Information Rate (PIR) Traffic Policing: Which drop or remark the priority tags of packets when they exceed burst size.

Enhanced Security

Port Security limits the total number of devices using a switch port and protects against MAC flooding attacks.

IEEE 802.1X port-based or MAC-based access control ensures all users are authorized before being granted access to the network. When a user is authenticated, the VLAN, QoS, and security policy are automatically applied to the port where the user is connected, otherwise the port is grouped in a guest VLAN with limited access.

DHCP snooping allows a switch to protect a network from rogue DHCP servers to offer invalid IP address.

IP Source Guard prevents people from using IP addresses that were not assigned to them.

The Edge-Core ES3552M is a Fast Ethernet Layer 2/4 switch featuring 52 ports; 48 100Base-TX ports and 4 combo Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45/SFP (Small Form Factor Pluggable) ports. It is ideal for desktop Fast Ethernet connectivity and wiring closet installations. Using IP Clustering for a virtual stack of up to 36 switches. The whole stack can be managed as a single entity with a single IP address. This switch is packed with features and is a cost-effective solution that brings continuous availability, enhanced security and advanced QoS to the network edge, while maintaining simplicity of management.
