Introduction to XChange3051
The XChange3051 is a conduction-cooled 3U VPX Ethernet switch module.
High-Performance Switching
The XChange3051 provides six backplane 100GBASE-KR4 Ethernet ports, up to eight dedicated backplane 25GBASE-KR Ethernet ports, up to one backplane 10GBASE-T Ethernet port, and an optional front panel optical Ethernet port.
Software-Configurable I/O
These Gigabit Ethernet I/O options are software-configurable on a per-quad basis with additional software-controlled multiplexers, providing maximum flexibility without requiring factory-generated images for each new I/O configuration.
Performance & Standards Compliance
The XChange3051 delivers full wire-speed across all of its ports and supports jumbo frames up to 10 kB. It also supports IPv6 and a comprehensive set of IETF RFCs and IEEE protocols.
Managed Layer 2 Switching
As a fully managed Layer 2 switch, the XChange3051 supports features such as VLANs (IEEE 802.1Q), LACP, STP, RSTP, PVRST, MSTP, SNMP, flow control, port mirroring, port authentication (IEEE 802.1x), Quality of Service (QoS), ACL, IGMP, and LLDP.
SOSA-Aligned Design
The XChange3051 also provides SOSA-aligned build options to slot profiles SLT3-SWH-6F1U7U-14.4.14 (including the ground wafer) and SLT3-SWH-6F8U-14.4.15.
