• Up to 4 x 10 Gbps uplinks with XFP ports with link aggregation

• Passive backplane supporting 2.6 Tbps switching fabric

• High-level security supporting extended ACL, DAP, RADIUS, and Intelligent ARP defence

• Supports Active Ethernet technology with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet subscriber lines

• Strict QoS with 802.1p, Diffserv, and L2-L4 flow classification

• Wire-speed switching and aggregation with up to 384 Gbps capacity

• Dual hot-swappable redundant controller cards

• Dual hot-swappable power supplies for redundancy

• Shelf management for monitoring and control via network. Both CLI and SNMP access

• Advanced routing and switching features

• RADIUS-based broadband management and customer SLA control

• Low Power consumption to save maintenance and services cost
