PLANET XGS-6350-24X2C is a high performance Layer 3 Managed Switch that meets the next generation Metro, Data Center, Campus and Enterprise network requirements. It has high-density 24 10G SFP+ and 2 40G/100GbE QSFP28 fiber interfaces delivered in a 1RU rugged case. 

The XGS-6350-24X2C comes with the complete Layer 3 managed function with comprehensive protocols and applications to facilitate the rapid service deployment and management for both the traditional L2 and L3 networks. With support for advanced features, including RIP, OSPF, BGP, PIM-DM/SM, etc., this switch is ideal for the traditional or fully virtualized data center.

The administrator can flexibly choose the suitable transceivers according to the transmission distance or the transmission speed required extending the 1G/10G/40G/100G network efficiently. Besides, with 880Gbps switching capacity, the XGS-6350-24X2C can handle extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking to backbone or high capacity servers where audio, video streaming and multicast applications are utilized.

Extractive Power Supply Design to Increase Flexibility

The XGS-6350-24X2C is equipped with one extractive 100~240V AC power supply unit, so it is easy to replace the power for users. Besides, the XGS-6350-24X2C reserves another backup power slot on the rear panel and users can add the second AC or DC power to the redundant power supply installation. The AC power or DC power is optional. The redundant power system is specifically designed to handle the demands of high-tech facilities requiring the highest power integrity. 

High Performance 

The XGS-6350-24X2C boasts a high-performance switch architecture that is capable of providing non-blocking switch capacity as high as 880Gbps, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the LAN for catering to increasing bandwidth demands.

Rich Multi-layer Networking Protocols

The XGS-6350-24X2C comes with the complete Layer 3 managed function with comprehensive protocols and applications to facilitate the rapid service deployment and management for both the traditional L2 and L3 networks. With support for advanced features, including RIP, RIPng, OSPFv2, OSPFv3, BGP, BGP4+, etc., this switch is ideal for the traditional or fully-virtualized data center.

Strong Multicast 

The XGS-6350-24X2C supports abundant multicast features. In Layer 2, it features IPv4 IGMPv1/v2/v3 snooping and IPv6 MLD v1/v2 snooping. With Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR), multicast receiver/sender control and illegal multicast source detection functions can be had. In Layer 3 multicast protocols, it features PIM-DM, PIM-SM and PIM-SSM which make the XGS-6350-24X2C great for any robust networking.

Full IPv6 Support 

The XGS-6350-24X2C supports IPv4-to-IPv6 technologies including IPv4 manual/automatic tunnel, IPv6-to-IPv4 tunnel, and Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol (ISATAP) tunnel. It comprehensively supports IPv6 Neighbor Discovery, DHCPv6, Path MTU Discovery, IPv6-based Telnet, SSH and ACL, meeting the need of IPv6 network device management and service control. 

High Reliability

The key components of the XGS-6350-24X2C such as management module, power system and the fan system support redundancy design. All system modules support hot-swap and seamless switching without manual intervention. 

It supports In-service Software Upgrade (ISSU) and Graceful Restart (GR) for OSPF/BGP routing protocol, guaranteeing the user data non-stop forwarding when the system is upgrading. It supports Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) that realizes fault detection and service recovery in seconds through linking with Layer 2 or Layer 3 protocol.

Excellent and Secure Traffic Control

The XGS-6350-24X2C is loaded with powerful traffic management and WRR features to enhance services offered by telecoms and enterprises. The WRR functionalities include wire-speed Layer 4 traffic classifiers and bandwidth limitation which are particularly useful for multi-tenant unit, multi-business unit, Telco, or network service applications. 

Powerful Security from Layer 2 to Layer 4

The ACL policies supported can classify the traffic by source/destination IP addresses, source/destination MAC addresses, IP protocols, TCP/UDP, IP precedence, time ranges and ToS. Moreover, various policies can be conducted to forward the traffic. The XGS-6350-24X2C also provides IEEE 802.1x port-based access authentication, which can be deployed with RADIUS, to ensure the port level security and block illegal users. Thus, the XGS-6350-24X2C empowers enterprises and campuses to take full advantage of the limited network resources and guarantees the best performance in VoIP and video conferencing transmission.

Robust Layer 2 Features

The XGS-6350-24X2C can be programmed for basic switch management functions such as port speed configuration, port aggregation, VLAN, Spanning Tree Protocol, WRR, bandwidth control and IGMP snooping. It also supports 802.1Q tagged VLAN, Q-in-Q, voice VLAN and GVRP Protocol. In addition, the number of VLAN interfaces is 1K and the number of VLAN IDs is 4K. By supporting port aggregation, the XGS-6350-24X2C allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combined with multiple ports. It enables up to 32 groups for trunk with a maximum of 8 ports for each group.
