The Cisco Distributed Forwarding Card 3B (Part Number: WS-F6700-DFC3B-RF) is a critical component designed to enhance the overall performance of the Cisco 7600 Series Routers. This distributed forwarding card helps in offloading the main processor by performing tasks such as packet forwarding and packet rewriting at a high speed. This model is a refurbished version, ensuring that it meets the same functional requirements as new products while providing a cost-effective solution.
One of the card's significant features is its compatibility with the Cisco 7600 Series routers, particularly when paired with compatible Supervisor Engine modules. It acts as a switching accelerator, greatly improving data throughput during heavy network traffic conditions by distributing the traffic load more effectively. With the 3B version, it provides stronger performance compared to its predecessors, ensuring it can handle increased network demands and more complex networking environments.
This card takes advantage of distributed processing by performing packet forwarding closer to the network ingress points, which reduces latency and enhances efficiency. This, in turn, improves the scaling capacity of network aggregates, making the WS-F6700-DFC3B an excellent choice for large networks needing to manage substantial traffic volumes.
For security-conscious environments, the Cisco DFC3B card provides advanced packet filtering and policy enforcement capabilities. It further integrates with Cisco’s quality of service (QoS) mechanisms, thereby optimizing resource handling and prioritisation within the network.
The Cisco WS-F6700-DFC3B also offers redundancy options, making it suitable for enterprises that demand reliability and uninterrupted service. By offloading functions from the core router processor and taking advantage of distributed computing, this card enhances network performance without needing additional infrastructure.
