Product Details
Product Overview
The S5863-24X2C is a Layer 3 switch with high-performance capabilities, offering full 10G access, 40G, and 100G uplink core routing. It is designed to meet the high-density and high-bandwidth requirements of next-generation enterprise networks, data centers, and metropolitan area networks. Additionally, it serves the needs of telecom network operators and can function at the aggregation or access layer of campus Ethernet networks. This device can also be used as a connection layer in data centers.
The S5863-24X2C switch features a comprehensive set of services, including Layer 2, Layer 3, MPLS, VXLAN, OAM/APS, and more, along with support for security, flow control, hardware-based NetFlow, and high-precision clock capabilities. The product includes an elastic stacking function, which allows multiple devices to be virtualized into a single logical entity. This not only facilitates the expansion of ports and switching capacity but also enables unified management, upgrades, and maintenance across devices.
To address the demands of large data traffic and non-blocking transmission in data centers, this switch provides robust caching capabilities and an advanced cache scheduling mechanism to maximize effective use of device cache capacity. It is tailored to meet the needs of high-density and high-bandwidth network applications in next-generation enterprise networks, data centers, and metropolitan area networks. The switch is versatile enough for use in network operator environments, campus Ethernet aggregation or access layers, data center access layers, and even as a core layer in small to medium-sized enterprises, offering comprehensive server access solutions for data centers.

Plug-In Units
Power Supply Unit (PSU)
On the rear panel of the switch, there are two slots for Power Supply Unit (PSU). The mounting slots can be equipped with DC or AC type PSUs. The different type of PSUs can be equipped into the switch. The below shows AC and DC type of power supply modules Two PSUs, For supplying redundancy, dual PSUs have to be installed at a system.
The power supply unit (PSU) feeds the proper power voltage to the base board of switch. Two PSUs are possible to be mounted into rear side of the chassis and it can be DC or AC type of PSU. Therefore, you need to decide to choose proper power supply unit according to installation environment.
The power connector (AC and DC type) for main power supply is located on the rear panel of the PSU. For redundant power feeding, the second PSU has to be used.
The below shows the electrical characteristics of the switch:
