Cisco Systems WS-C4948-10GE-S - Catalyst 4948 48 Port 10/100/ 1000 2-10GBE Standard Switch with P/s

The Cisco Catalyst 4948-10GE Switch is a wire-speed low-latency Layer 2-4 1-rack-unit (1-RU) fixed-configuration switch for rack-optimized server switching. Based on the proven Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series hardware and software architecture the Cisco Catalyst 4948-10GE offers exceptional performance bandwidth and reliability for low-density multilayer aggregation of high-performance servers and workstations.The Cisco Catalyst 4948-10GE delivers wire-speed throughput with low latency for data-intensive applications using a 136-Gbps switching fabric with a 102-million packets per second (mpps) forwarding rate in hardware for Layer 2-4 traffic. High-performance switching is delivered regardless of the number of route entries or Layer 3 and 4 services enabled. Hardware-based Cisco Express Forwarding routing architecture allows for increased scalability and performance. X2 10 Gigabit Ethernet optics provide 20 Gigabit Ethernet wire-speed uplinks for maximum throughput of traffic.
