ComEth 3200b is a range of highly integrated Layer 2/3 Ethernet switches. The switching capability provides up to sixteen 10/100BT and eight 10/100/1000BT front Ethernet ports. 8 Fast and 4 Giga Ethernet ports are available with the one slot version. The two slots wide version provides 16 FE and 4 GE plus additional ports thanks to an extension board. A set of four Giga channels or/and N * 8 Fast Ethernet channels can be added with specific mezzanines. A standard extension is available with 4 Small Form Pluggable transceivers slots. Thanks to this independent open interface the customer can add several type of optical or 1000BT transceivers on the switch. ComEth 3200b is compatible both with VME or cPCI 6U systems. This switch is fully upward compatible with ComEth3200. It provides more Giga Ethernet ports and adds some L2 and L3 enhanced functions as the port aggregation, traffic rate shaping, etc. Its ultra low-power design together with the thermal monitoring makes it ideal for integration in high-demanding application. The new family, formed by ComEth3200, 3300b & 5100b, provides an optimized switch solution for Fast and Giga mixed network for any system configuration.
