(insertion/deletion) and Layer 3 IGMP multicasting

Deploy multimedia services (voice, video, audio, telephony) throughout

your network with multi-service technologies: IP multicast with IGMP
and 256 multicast groups

Highest Level of IEEE 802.1p Priority Queues supported – 8 on each

port. This advanced QoS software option is ideal for sophisticated
Ethernet service, including multi-tenant unit (MTU) installations.

Multiple Management Options : SNMP, Telnet, RMON, console

Emergency backup, Redundant Power Supply provides optional

redundant power.

The IntraCore 35516 Layer 3 family of Gigabit Ethernet switches is Asanté’s high performance, flexible
range of backbone router switches. Tailor this IntraCore® switch with hardware and software to precisely
match your network needs—today and in the future.

By using Layer 3 routing with the IntraCore® 35516, you can subnet a standard IP network into multiple
subnets.

With 16 ports of Gigabit Ethernet offered in a single flexible design, your cost of ownership is reduced
considerably over other vendors’ switches by using mix-and-match GBIC/Copper ports.

By using a single-chip state-of-the-art architecture with shared memory, wire speed switching at Layer 2
and Layer 3 routing is achieved on all ports.

Multicast Support

The IC 35516 supports IGMP versions 1 and 2, IP multicast routing protocol DVMRP v3, and supports up
to 2048 IP multicast groups.

Jumbo Packet Support

Jumbo Packet transmission is a requirement seen largely in Higher Education, IP Storage Area Networks
(SAN), Video on Demand, Research and Distributed Scientific computing environments this commonly
involves high level traffic flows of web, video and database transaction processing between host and
client.

Our implementation of Jumbo Packet support allows oversize frames of up to 16384 bytes to be
transmitted. Asanté’s end-to-end Jumbo Packet support includes FriendlyNET® GigaNIX network cards
also.

Low Cost Failure Backup Power Option

New to Asanté is the provision of an optional DC backup power supply to ensure continued operation in
situations of primary power failure. Used with Uninterruptible Power Supplies, Asanté IC 35516 can
ensure high productivity and extremely low downtime on mission critical networks.

The IC35-EPS12 operates at 12VDC and is used in standby mode simultaneously on-line with the 90­260VAC primary power system. Should the primary power fail, the IC35-EPS12 automatically goes live
and both LED indication on the switch hardware and SNMP alarms will be enabled.

Market Applications

This family of switches is ideally positioned for those organizations and businesses that operate web
based, multimedia and high performance networks including, MTU, IP Storage Area Networking (SAN),
Video on Demand, Higher Education, Scientific Research, E-Business Enterprise applications (SAP,
ERP, CRM, and SCM) in Manufacturing, Retail, and Public Services including Government and
Healthcare where control of latency and jitter along with traffic management by user and service type is
critical.
