The Cisco Versatile Interface Processor 4-80 (VIP4-80) is a highly versatile control processor designed for use in Cisco's modular routers. This card is purpose-built to handle both routing and high-speed traffic management, making it essential for network environments that require flexible yet robust performance. The processor is engineered to support a wide range of Layer 3 network services and can be used with various networking modules to expand its functionality.
The VIP4-80 is compatible with Cisco's 7500 Series routers, further enhancing the modularity and scalability of these units. Featuring a clock speed of 80 MHz, the processor is capable of handling advanced QoS (Quality of Service) functions, improving bandwidth management and prioritisation. In addition, its high throughput ensures that it can manage complex routing decisions efficiently without becoming a network bottleneck.
The design of the VIP4-80 allows for integration with multiple network modules, offering increased versatility in managing both Wide Area Network (WAN) and Local Area Network (LAN) environments. Its interface flexibility makes it suitable for a variety of network topologies. The card also supports data compression, which helps reduce bandwidth costs by optimising the transmission of data across WAN links.
The unit is built with redundancy and failover capabilities, reducing chances of network downtime. It is also capable of supporting high-density interface configurations, which are particularly useful for businesses expanding their networking environments. The VIP4-80’s robust processing power makes it an ideal choice for companies requiring reliable and scalable solutions to maintain efficient traffic flow across complex networks.
EOL Technology Services provides support for the VIP4-80 through a combination of professional consulting services and access to replacement parts. This ensures continued functionality and helps extend the lifetime of your networking equipment, all while maintaining the performance levels your business demands.
