ABOUT THE EDGEIRON 4802CF Switch Architecture The EdgeIron 4802CF employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. This switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection. Switching Method The switch uses store-and-forward switching to ensure maximum data integrity. With store-and-forward switching, the entire packet must be r

DESCRIPTION OF HARDWARE Description of Hardware 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ports These are dual-speed RJ-45 ports. Because all ports on this switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. (See“100BASE-TX/10BASE-T Pin Assignments” on page B-3.) Each of these ports support auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode (half or full duplex), and data rate (10 or 100 Mbps) can be selec

ABOUT THE EDGEIRON 4802CF Optional Redundant Power Unit Foundry provides an optional Redundant Power Unit (RPU) that can supply power to the switch in the event of failure of the internal power supply. Power Supply Receptacles There are two power receptacles on the rear panel of the switch. The standard power receptacle is for the AC power cord. The receptacle labeled “RPU” is for the optional Redundant Power Unit (RPU). Figure 2-3. Power Supply Receptacles 2-6 © 2003 Foundry Networks, Inc
