Product Overview The AS4600-54T-C is a high-performance Gigabit Ethernet switch, with 48 RJ-45 GbE ports, 4 x 10 GbE SFP+ ports, and two module slots each with 40 GbE bandwidth for additional uplinks. The switch provides the high-availability features required in a data center top-of-rack switch, including redundant hot-swappable AC or -48VDC PSUs, or 12VDC power input; hot-swappable redundant fans, and port-to-power or power-to-port airflowoptions. The two expansion module slots accept 1 x 40G QSFP modules to provide two 40G ports or eight 10G ports through breakout cables. This additional bandwidth makes the switch ideal for applications mixing 1 GbE and 10 GbE nodes in a rack, or to support 40G uplinks to a spine network. The AS4600-54T-C comes with Cumulus Linux — The leading network OS for Data Center switching systems.
