Product Description 1.2
Overview
PLANET CS-6306R Core Layer Routing Switch is specially designed for large network applications such as
enterprises, campuses, communities, ISPs and data center networks where flexible configuration, large
capacity, high density, high reliability and advanced traffic management are required.
The CS-6306R is the High-density Chassis Ethernet Switch built with 6 module slots and redundant power
supply. It provides great porting flexibility for network deployment by offering various combinable management
modules and switch modules. For instance, one management module can be collaborated with four switch
modules, or two management modules designed to mutually perform system backup. Within the 9U height,
single chassis, the maximum configuration can be:
- 192 10/100/1000BASE-T Copper Slots
- 192 100/1000BASE-SX/LX SFP Fiber Slots
- 64 10G SFP+ Fiber Slots
- 16 40G QSFP+ Fiber Slots
Scalable 10 and 40 Gigabit Performance
The CS-6306R delivers 10 and 40 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in a highly-flexible and resilient modular
platform. With high switching capacity, the CS-6306R Chassis Switch supports wire-speed L2/L3 forwarding
and high routing performance for IPv4 and IPv6 protocols. The scalable and flexible modular architecture
supports up to 3Tbps forwarding performance in a single system. The CS-6306R is ideal for the core layer of
campuses and enterprise networks, and the aggregation layer of IP metropolitan networks and wide area
networks.
Rich Multi-Layer Networking Protocols
The CS-6306R comes with the complete Layer 3 managed function with comprehensive protocols and
applications to facilitate the rapid service deployment and management for both the traditional L2 and L3
networks. With support for advanced features, including RIP, RIPng, OSPFv2, OSPFv3, BGP, BGP4+, etc., this
chassis switch is ideal for the traditional or fully virtualized data center.
Strong Multicast
The CS-6306R supports abundant multicast features. In Layer 2, it features IPv4 IGMPv1/v2/v3 snooping and
IPv6 MLD v1/v2 snooping. With Multicast VLAN Register (MVR), multicast receiver/sender control and illegal
multicast source detect functions. In Layer 3 multicast protocols, it features PIM-DM, PIM-SM and PIM-SSM
which make the CS-6306R great for any robust networking.
