| Features and Benefits |
|---|
| Highly scalable fabric | Designed to support high 1-, 10-, and 100-Gbps port densities, Provides built-in scalability for investment protection |
| Dual RSP to provide an active-active switch fabric | Offers traffic load balancing simultaneously across both fabrics, Offers highly available system where loss of one RSP allows for unimpeded performance per slot |
| Distributed forwarding plane architecture | Allows line cards to support independent forwarding for enhanced performance and scale |
| Control plane extension ports | Allows the redundant pair of chassis to be combined into a single logical entity to provide advantages in management, scalability, and high availability |
| Memoryless switch fabric | Provides transparent nonblocking low-latency packet forwarding |
| Virtual output queuing and arbitration | Offers service intelligence with prioritization of traffic (unicast and multicast), Provides efficient congestion management mechanism and avoids problems related to head-of-line blocking |
| Centralized arbiter | Uses an efficient credit mechanism to help ensure transparent switchover with zero packet loss |
| IEEE 1588 support | Delivers timing services over the packet network efficiently and reliably |
| Two independent clock source connections: BITS and Synchronization Supply Unit (SSU) DTI | Offers redundant, centralized network synchronization support |
| Two 16-GB Solid State Drives (SSDs) | Allows storing of core dumps and helps reduce the system Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) |
| Embedded Universal Series Bus (eUSB) memory port | Provides access to USB flash memory devices for software image loading and recovery |
| Front-panel LEDs | Provides visual indication of RSP status (active or standby), power management, and activity on compact flash and Hard Disk Drive (HDD) |
| Management ports | Provides easy access to system console |
