Avaya Ethernet Routing
Switch 4500 Series

Highlights Of The Ethernet
Routing Switch 4500 Series

• Always-on – Best in class end-to-end

resiliency solution, hot-swappable unit replacement within a Stack
Chassis and integrated power redundancy.

• Convergence-ready – Support for PoE, true plug and play capabilities

for IP phone deployments, advanced QoS capabilities.

• Energy efficient – On average 36% more energy efficient than

competitive solutions,* energy saver functionality further reduces
power consumption for both switch and IP phone without losing
telephony connectivity.

• Powerful – Wire-speed performance, true pay-as-you-grow Stack

Chassis capabilities, delivering up to 400 ports and 384 Gbps of
virtual backplane throughput.

• Secure – Standards-based 802.1x with integration to Avaya’s Identity

Engines portfolio for centralized, policy-based authenticated network
access.

• Flexible – Mix-and-match best-in-class stacking capabilities; Fast

Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet in the same Stackable Chassis, with or
without PoE.

The Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Series

provide resilient Stackable Chassis

capabilities, high performance Layer 2

switching and Layer 3 routing, advanced

convergence features and a full suite of

security, QoS and management

capabilities.

Positioned for customers who are looking

for Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet to

the desktop, support for PoE and optional

support for 10 Gig uplinks, the ERS 4500

provides a flexible high-performance

platform to meet the demands of the

converged edge. With 11 different models,

the ERS 4500 products provide the

widest breadth of options to meet a

diverse range of edge requirements.

To ensure full interoperability across

the complete ERS 4000 portfolio, the

rear-mounted Stackable Chassis

interfaces used on the ERS 4500 are

consistent with those used on the

newer ERS 4500 PoE+ models and

the ERS 4800 models. Each ERS 4000

Switch delivers up to 384Gbps when

eight units are combined.

With 17 dif ferent models, the ERS 4000 Series offe rs a wide range of cap abilities

to meet a diverse range of edge req uirem ents.

Summary

The ERS 4500 Series is well suited for demands of the high-performance

converged edge. The ERS 4500, along with other Avaya products, can

increase profitability and productivity, streamline business operations,

lower costs and help your business gain a competitive edge.
