Aggregation 10G Switch MES5316A

Mass production is over

Bandwidth up to 640 Gbps
Non-blocking architecture
32 ports of 10G
L3 switches
Front-to-Back cooling
Stacking up to 8 devices
Redundant power supplies

MES5316A switches are high performance devices with 10GBASE-R/1000BASE-X interfaces that can be used as aggregation switches in carrier networks and data centers.

The device’s ports support operation at rates of 1 Gbps (SFP) and 10 Gbps (SFP+), that provides usage flexibility and ability of gradual transition to higher data rates. The non-blocking architecture provides correct packet processing under maximum loads, while maintaining minimal and predictable delays for all types of traffic.

The front-to-back ventilation design ensures effective cooling when using the devices in modern data centers.

The redundant and hot-swappable fans and AC/DC power supplies along with advanced hardware monitoring functions provide high reliability and ensure uninterrupted operation of the carrier networks.

The devices comply with CE requirements.
