Product Overview

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. These DFEs provide a very cost-effective and ﬂexible option for

customers deploying switching at the edge of the network.

Gold DFEs deliver scalable performance and ﬂexibility to ensure comprehensive switching, routing,

Quality of Service, security, and trafﬁc containment unmatched by competitive solutions.

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 license 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:

• Up to 48 ports of 100Base-FX via MT-RJ

• Up to 72 ports of 10/100Base-TX via RJ45

• Up to 48 ports of PoE 10/100Base-TX via RJ45

• Up to 72 ports of 10/100Base-TX via RJ21

• Up to 72 ports of 10/100/1000Base-T via RJ45

• Up to 72 ports of PoE 10/100/1000Base-T via RJ45

All modules can be installed in any Matrix N-Series chassis-based solution.

There is nothing more important

than our customers.
