Router 6080 Chassis

Router 6080, 8 FIC slots, 10 BASE-T, 100 BASE-TX, 1000 BASE-T

The 3Com® Router 6000 Family provides flexible, feature-rich routing
from the core to the edge of the enterprise network, delivering resilientWAN connectivity for a variety of topologies and business environments.

The family offers chassis with four slots (3U form factor) or eight slots (5U), plus a choice of 30 different Flexible Interface Card (FICs) that gives the enterprise a wide-ranging choice of industry-standard WAN and LAN interfaces. A hot-swappable, resilient modular design simplifies installation and maintenance, while offering numerous expansion options to help the organization keep pace with growth and change. Advanced quality of service (QoS) and other traffic management
capabilities support latency-sensitive converged applications such as voice over IP or video. The routers protect data and resources with a layered security approach, including an embedded stateful packet inspection firewall. And they have been independently tested for interoperability with Cisco routing devices.

KEY BENEFITS:

FLEXIBLE ENTERPRISE-READY DESIGN
The Router 6000 Family offers an attractive and economical solution for enterprises wanting to maximize throughput and uptime across the network. Comprehensive support for standards-based WAN and LAN interfaces and protocols ensures easy integration with the widest spectrum of public and private networks. Configuration options provided by the FIC modules deliver T1/E1, T3/E3, ISDN PRI, asynchronous transfer mode (ATM), frame relay and asynchronous DSL (ADSL) links, as well as various Ethernet LAN options. Both router models come with hot-swappable FIC slots that don’t require powering down for card replacement, and fan and power supply modules. A router processing unit (ordered separately) is required for each chassis.

FULLY FEATURED ROUTING PLATFORM
To eliminate the need for costly and inconvenient upgrades, the routers come equipped with all the required operating memory, a complete routing and security suite and a robust applications set. The routers include a full complement of memory (512 MB of SDRAM) and flash memory to support dual software images. Standard routing capabilities include: IP and IPX routing, OSPF, RIP V1/2, integrated IS–IS, multicast routing, QoS, IEEE 802.1Q VLAN and IGMP v1, 2 and 3, and more.

MULTIVENDOR INTEROPERABILITY ACROSS THE WAN
To accommodate today’s multivendor networking environments, 3Com routers are designed to interoperate with standards-based equipment from other vendors. The 3Com Router 6000 Family has been “Tolly Verified for Interoperability with Cisco,” reducing implementation and testing time for enterprises with core Cisco routers.

ADVANCED SECURITY AND CONTROL FEATURES
The Router 6000 Family helps secure and safeguard sensitive information against unauthorized access. Security and control features include: AAA, RADIUS authentication, a stateful packet inspection firewall, denial-of-service (DoS) blocking and Access Control Lists (ACLs). L2TP and IPSec VPNs with 3DES and AES encryption provide additional security over the WAN. The embedded firewall includes support for ACLs, plus generic routing encapsulation (GRE), network address translation (NAT), NAT traversal and application layer gateways. Business applications are able to pass easily through the firewall and across the VPN.

VOICE, DATA AND VIDEO CONVERGENCE SUPPORT
The 3Com Router 6000 Family delivers advanced QoS, including DiffServ support, for effective traffic management on networks that run converged voice, data and video applications. Utilizing IP differentiated services for applications and ATM QoS for traffic and physical layer prioritization, the routers are equipped to handle the most demanding multimedia networking. This helps assure the level of service required for delay-sensitive traffic and continuous business operation, even during heavy network use. The routers support both IEEE 802.1p prioritization and IEEE 802.Q VLANs. Voice FICs support both analog and digital voice communications. They enable enterprises, service providers and managed service providers to connect the public switched telephone network (PSTN) and traditional telephony equipment—including PBXs, key systems, analog phones and fax machines—directly to the routers without additional equipment.

RESILIENCE AND REDUNDANCY FOR MAXIMUM UPTIME
The routers are designed for high resiliency to meet stringent enterprise uptime standards. To help ensure continuous operation, they support redundant links and provide extra bandwidth to minimize downtime
and ensure resilience in case of service disruptions. Reliability features include configuration rollback, multilinks, Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), Backup Control Center (Configuration/Port) and Dial Control Center. In addition, the routers include 32 MB of flash memory to hold multiple configuration files and operating system images for recovery purposes. If the router cannot boot from a recently updated software image or configuration file, it can boot from a specified backup file or image residing in this memory.
