The Cisco Distributed Forwarding Card 3A (Part Number: WS-F6700-DFC3A-RF) is a vital component that optimises performance within network systems by accelerating switching operations. Designed specifically for use in Cisco Catalyst 6500 series switches, this forwarding card serves to offload tasks from the main central processor, significantly enhancing overall throughput and efficiency. The card functions as an integral part of Cisco's distributed forwarding system, allowing for decentralised data processing, which further bolsters network speed and scalability in large deployments.
The WS-F6700-DFC3A-RF features a distributed forwarding architecture, enabling it to manage and process data within the switch itself. This localised processing helps reduce latency and increase packet handling efficiency, especially in networks with high traffic volumes. It can handle a wide array of IP-based services, establishing it as a key asset for businesses requiring superior network performance and reliability. Additionally, the forwarding card is compatible with a variety of line cards, offering excellent flexibility and enhanced support for different network configurations.
This unit has been designed for high scalability and is built to support complex multi-service networks. It plays a critical role in improving the performance of applications by providing robust data forwarding services even during peak operational loads. It is engineered to function reliably under demanding conditions and can be critical in network environments that require high-speed data transmission as well as efficient resource usage while prioritising low-latency switch performance.
