The Cisco Catalyst WS-C6504-E is a compact, high-performance switch designed for rack-mountable installations. This switch is ideal for enterprise and data centre environments that require both scalability and advanced features for managing complex networking tasks. It comes with a modular chassis design, making it highly adaptable to future network upgrades.
The WS-C6504-E has a four-slot chassis that allows users to insert various types of line cards to expand its functionality. These slots support both Supervisor Engine modules and Ethernet switching line cards, offering flexibility for performance and control in enterprise networks. With the right configurations, this switch can provide advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capabilities, enabling it to route high volumes of traffic efficiently.
A key feature of this model is its support for redundant power supplies, ensuring greater reliability in case of a power failure. The switch also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), which allows it to power connected devices like IP phones and wireless access points directly through the Ethernet connections. This can simplify wiring and maintenance in a large network environment.
Additional features include enhanced security protocols like ACL (Access Control Lists) and MACsec encryption, helping to safeguard data as it travels across the network. The modular design allows for hot-swappable components, ensuring you can replace failed parts or upgrade modules without taking the entire system offline, reducing downtime significantly.
Measuring only 5 rack units (RU) in height, the WS-C6504-E is a space-conscious choice for installations that require high-density networking in a confined area.
