3Com Corebuilder 9000 6-Port FDDI Switching Module

3Com Corebuilder 9000 6-Port FDDI Switching Module ... service in increas-ingly demanding environments, while, at the same time, lowering the operational costs of that network asset. The CoreBuilder 9000 switch gives IT managers a common platform that they can deploy (in different chassis sizes) across the enterprise LAN to deliver low-cost, high-density work-group access, ensure high-speed, resilient server connectivity, and create powerful, efficient back-bone interswitch links. A common platform reduces staff training and administrative overhead, and lowers maintenance costs and inventory management (by enabling redeployment and sharing of chassis interface modules).

While providing commonality across the enterprise, the CoreBuilder 9000 switch expands the IT manager's options for managing traffic. For example, the CoreBuilder 9000 switch provides the ability to localize, prioritize, and secure traffic flows in order to serve user needs and adapt quickly to growth and change. The highly modular CoreBuilder 9000 switch also integrates different high-speed technologies, like ATM and Gigabit Ethernet, and supports migration from legacy technologies, such as FDDI. For the more demanding net-works, the CoreBuilder 9000 switch not only delivers superior capacity and control, also ensures continuous availability. No other enterprise LAN switch or router provides better redundancy and resilience, or greater confidence in operations. With support for converged e-business applications and the flexibility to provide work-group, data center and backbone access, and high avail-ability for reliable operations, the CoreBuilder 9000 enterprise switch is the ultimate e-Networks LAN solution.
