The Cisco WS-X4516/2 Supervisor Engine V is a high-performance control processor designed for the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series switches. This engine provides key functions such as system management, redundancy, and enhanced network security, making it an essential component for high-demand enterprise networks. The WS-X4516/2 enables network administrators to efficiently manage and control traffic by delivering advanced performance metrics and monitoring capabilities.
This module features integrated Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, delivering improved throughput for critical business applications. With support for 256 Gbps system bandwidth, it ensures enhanced scalability, allowing your network to grow while maintaining high performance. Additionally, the Supervisor Engine V offers extensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capabilities, ensuring network flexibility and control for both basic and advanced routing protocols.
The Cisco WS-X4516/2 also provides redundancy and high availability features through Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) and Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP). This ensures minimal interruptions to your network by immediately switching control if the primary supervisor engine fails. Additionally, it supports various security features such as Access Control Lists (ACLs) and IPv6, enabling comprehensive traffic regulation and future-proofing your network for the latest standards.
Lastly, the Supervisor Engine V is designed to be compatible with other Catalyst 4500 Series line cards and modules, allowing you to fully maximise the switch's potential. Its straightforward deployment makes it a practical choice for large-scale networks that require both reliability and performance.
