Edge-Core ECS5610-52S Layer 3 Switch

The Edge-Core ECS5610-52S is a 48-port 10GbE SFP+ with 4-port of 40GbE switch designed from the ground up to be deployed and utilized in medium to large data centers and Enterprise Campus. The ECS5610-52S is designed for high-availability and mission-critical Enterprise environments in 1RU enclosure with redundant, hot swappable, load-sharing PSUs along with hot swappable fan try with n+1 redundant fans; and port-to-power and power-to-port airflow direction options.

Key Features and Benefits

Performance and Scalability
The ECS5610-52S is a high density 10Gb Ethernet switch encased in a small 1U form factor. This switch meets the high performance, availability and network scaling requirements of enterprise and cloud data centers. Deployed as part of a distributed spine network, the ECS5610-52S provides full line rate switching at Layer 2 or Layer 3 across 48*10GbE ports with 4 x 40GbE uplinks.

The ECS5610-52S is capable of 1.28Tbps of network throughput. Given the demand for bandwidth brought on by server virtualization.

Continuous Availability
Dual hot-swappable power supplies allow the system to continue operation even in the event of a single power supply failure. To ensure longevity, the ECS5610-52S employs data center-friendly front to back cooling, dissipating unwanted heat efficiently and effectively.

Data Center Requirements
With Ethernet fast becoming the de facto standard for the interconnection of data center devices, the ECS5610-52S is conceived and designed to overcome the challenges in a high traffic load environment, ensuring that traffic flows smoothly through the network without delay. It features Jumbo frame up to 12K bytes.

Energy Efficiency
The ECS5610-52S is easy on the environment as well as your energy budget. 175W typical power consumption at full line rate forwarding over 48 x 10GbE DAC cables and 4*40Gbase-SR4.

Simple and Flexible Management
The ECS5610-52S features both an user-friendly web interface and a command line interface for the advanced user. SNMP based management is also fully supported. When used in conjunction with ECView Pro, Edge-Core own network management system, the task of monitoring and provisioning can be easily accomplished.

Applications
The ECS5610-52S is designed to fit in various applications in the Enterprise environment. These applications include:

TOR Switch for 10GE Data Center: The ECS5610-52S can be deployed as a ToR switch to interconnect up to 48 units of 10GE servers in the same rack while providing 4 ports of 40GbE uplinks to interconnect to the data center SPINE switches.

SPINE Switch for 1GE Data Center: The ECS5610-52S can also be deployed as a SPINE switch interconnecting up to 48 ECS4510 or ECS4610 together in a star network topology. In this deployment scenario, ECS4510/4610 will act as a TOR switch interconnecting up to 48 units of 1GE severs in the same rack.

Campus 10GE Aggregation Switch: In the Enterprise campus environment, the ECS5610-52S can also be deployed as an aggregation switch interconnecting up to 48 ECS4510 or ECS4610 together to form a medium-size L2 or L3 campus network. In this deployment scenario, the 4 40-GbE uplinks can be used to interconnect multiple ECS5610 to form a large-size campus network.
