Overview

The MSW-4424CS is positioned as a layer 2+ Gigabit access switch solution. It is equipped with 20 100Base-FX/1000Base-X dual speed SFP slots, 4 ports GbE combo (10/100/1000Base-T or 100/1000Base-X SFP) ports and 4 1000Base-X/10G Base-X dual speed SFP+ uplink slots. The MSW-4424CS offers the best flexibility and scalability for the operators or service providers to deploy their Metro Ethernet network. With the deployment of MSW-4424CS, the operators or service providers can flexibly provision the bandwidth for either 100Mbps or 1000Mbps as well as uplink connection of Gigabit or 10G speed upon their service applications. The MSW-4424CS has built-in dual power supplies to enable power redundancy function and enhance the high network availability. Aimed at Metro Ethernet applications, the specifications of MSW-4424CS fully meet the attributes of Carrier Ethernet proposed by MEF (Metro Ethernet Forum). It complies with MEF 9 standard to support E-Line/E-Access service and MEF 14 standard to enable the bandwidth profile configuration delivering SLA (Service Level Agreement) for end-to-end performance characteristics as well as Ethernet OAM functionality to support carrier grade service OAM management rapidly detecting and recovering from the network incidents in real time. MSW-4424CS supports timing synchronization features (SyncE & IEEE 1588v2) to enhance and migrate a carrier grade network for mobile backhaul applications.
