Optimized for the Network Edge

The Gold Distributed Forwarding Engine

(DFE) modules for the Matrix N-Series

are designed specifically for high-density,

10/100, 10/100/1000 and 100FX network

edge applications. This new line of DFEs

provides a very cost-effective and flexible

option for customers deploying switching

at the edge of the network.

Leveraging Enterasys’ nTERA

™

ASICs,

the Gold DFEs deliver scalable performance

and flexibility to ensure comprehensive

switching, routing, Quality of Service,

s e c u r i t y, and traffic containment unmatched

by competitive solutions.

The Gold DFEs are supported in the

Matrix N1, N3, N5 and N7 platforms for

guaranteed investment protection across

the entire series. Through a flexible,

optional software upgrade, these modules

support 1+1 redundancy and advanced

routing for mission-critical network

applications.

Module Configurations

The Gold DFEs provide flexibility with a

variety of port-density and technology

options for the edge:

• 48 10/100Base-TX RJ45 ports with

one expansion module slot

• 48 10/100Base-TX RJ21 ports with

one expansion module slot

• 72 10/100Base-TX RJ45 ports

• 72 10/100Base-TX RJ21 ports

• 40 10/100/1000Base-TX RJ45 ports

with one expansion module slot

• 60 10/100/1000Base-TX RJ45 ports

• 48 100Base-FX MT-RJ ports with one

expansion module slot

• 48 10/100Base-TX RJ45 with Power

over Ethernet and one expansion slot

• 6 1000Base-X Mini-GBIC port

network expansion module

All modules can be installed in any Matrix

N-Series chassis-based solution. Those

modules with an expansion module slot

support a 6-port 1000Base-X Mini-GBIC

network expansion module.

Scalable Edge Connectivity

The Gold DFE dramatically increases the

edge density for 10/100 and 10/100/1000

connectivity with the highest module density

in the industry. This not only provides

extensive scalability, but also optimizes the

cost-effectiveness of the Matrix N-Series.
