AX 4600S Series
To be released in2014

AX4630S Model

Cost-Efficient, High- Scalability Crossover Switch forCore Networks
The AX4600S Series was designed with the concept “crossover switch”, which provides the compactness of abox-type switch and the scalability of a chassis-type switch, making it possible to install / replace network
interface modules in a more flexible manner commensurate with needs and budget. The AX4630S, a compact 2Usize switch, has four network interface card (NIF) slots, allowing a mixture of different types of interfaces (1G/10G).

High Cost Efficiency and High Scalability

Fault Tolerant Network■Crossover switch combining chassis/box■Non-stop network◎ Features of a box-type switch (compact body andcost efficiency) and a chassis-type switch (flexibilityand scalability)◎ 2U height with four network interface card (NIF) slots◎ Mixture of 1G / 10G■High port density◎ Max. 1.92 Tbps switching capacity◎ Support of various Ethernet interfaces
・1G or 10G : 96 ports# The number of usable 1G/10G ports on a NIF is reducedby four each time you use one 40G backside port.

Large Entry Capacity■Enhanced ARP entry capacity◎ Larger capacity than that of a traditional box-typeswitch◎ ARP table entries increased to 45K◎ STP-free redundancy with full link aggregation
prevents trouble associated with system complexityand enhances network stability.

■Virtual Redundant System (VRS)◎ Two switches can be logically integrated into a single
unit (simple redundancy and easy operationmanagement).
◎ Dual Active doubles the bandwidth of a system.
◎ Four 40 Gpbs ports for VRS links are provided on theback of the switch.

■Protocol Accelerator (PA)◎ Hardware called Protocol Accelerator enables
hardware-assisted switchover.

Stable High-Functionality Routing■Reliable field-proven routing functionality◎ The AX4630S employs high-reliability routing
software equivalent to that of a carrier-grade router.

Network Partition (Virtualization)

IPv6■Simple low-cost network virtualization■High-speed IPv4/IPv6 routing◎ Combination of VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding)and VLAN (Virtual LAN) logically splits a network.
◎ Secure, highly reliable virtual networks (partitions)can be configured at low cost.

High Reliability and High Availability■ALAXALA Ring
◎ ALAXALA proprietary L2 redundancy protocol
enables fast failover with 1 sec. (minimum time).
◎ Multi-ring topologies are also supported (increasesflexibility in network configuration).

■Hot-swappable power supply◎ The built-in redundant power supply makes it
possible to replace a power supply unit without
interrupting services.

◎ Hardware-based fast routing for IPv4/IPv6◎ Various IPv6 protocols: Static, RIPng, OSPFv3, andBGP4+

Power-Saving and Eco-Friendly Design■Power-saving design◎ The AX4630S employs power-saving architecture,circuits and modules.

■Airflow suited to data centers◎ The AX4630S provides front-to-back airflow for data
centers' cooling systems.

Simple Management and Maintenance■Command-free maintenance◎ SD Card Script enables automatic log saving /firmware update.
