Ethernet Aggregation Switch MES5316A

MES5316A switches are high performance devices with 10GBASE-R/1000BASE-X that can be used as aggregation switches in carrier networks and small data centers.

The devices support operating bandwidth of 1 Gbps (SFP) and 10 Gbps (SFP+) that provides flexible using and ability of smooth transition to higher data rates. The non-blocking architecture guarantees lossless packet forwarding at high loads with minimum and predictable delays for all types of traffic.

The front-to-back cooling provides effective cooldown in modern data centers.

The redundant and hot-swappable fans and AC/DC power supplies with advanced hardware monitoring functions provide high reliability and uninterrupted services.
