Zyxel introduces a new 100GbE enabled switch CX4800-56F, which is a high performance Layer 3 managed switches for well preparation to path the way for next generation network demands. Design with high density 48-port SFP28 that carries the flexibility to fit into today’s 10GbE network demand as well as future 25GbE network upgrades, the switch also comes with 8-port 100GbE QSFP28 to support large uplink even for cross stack bandwidth delivery. With 1U height and front-to-rear airflow, the CX4800-56F is suitable for Enterprise and campus aggregation network environments.
The CX4800-56F boasts upgradable SFP28 ports (run for both 10bE and 25GbE) and 100GbE uplink, as well as high-performance switching capacity of up to 4.0Tbps with forwarding rates of up to 2.0Bpps. A future-proof network designed for growing demands must be prepared for increased bandwidth requirements. Organizations with high data volumes, such as video production companies and scientific research institutions, rely on faster data transfer speeds to boost productivity. Enterprises that rely on cloud-based services generate a surging demand for networks that can handle high bandwidth while offering top application performance. Networks that support real-time applications, such as VoIP, video conferencing, and virtualized environments, require low latency to deliver the best user experience.
CX4800-56F offers a non-blocking architecture that delivers full 25GbE throughput on every port, even under heavy traffic conditions. This Switch runs with sophisticated firmware to support both on premises and cloud managed network requirements. With the on premises operation, the CX4800-56F continues to carry out the complete Layer 2 features of VLAN, ACL, port aggregation, mirroring and with all the necessary security features to protect your network for day to day operation.
The CX4800-56F is engineered for robust network redundancy. Its 2-unit physical stacking enables a redundant ring that preserves data integrity even if one switch fails. Dual hot swappable power supplies and hot-swappable fan trays ensure uninterrupted operation during power or cooling issues. These components can be replaced without planned downtime, simplifying maintenance and reducing the risk of service disruption. With its high-resiliency design, the switch helps lower operational costs while keeping business-critical services running smoothly.
