A mid-sized manufacturer deploys SL-ES3G-24-48-IPS-UPG on GE ES3 EtherSwitches across 15 branch locations to enable OSPF and BGP routing, VRF-Lite segmentation, and granular QoS. The result is deterministic voice/video performance, simplified network management via a single control plane, and a 40% reduction in WAN congestion.
A cloud service provider upgrades its 24/48-port GE ES3 EtherSwitch fabric with the IP Services license to activate advanced Layer 3 features: EVPN-VXLAN, route reflectors, and multi-tenant VRFs. This delivers elastic capacity, secure tenant isolation, sub-millisecond failover, and a 30% boost in east-west traffic throughput.
A university campus integrates SL-ES3G-24-48-IPS-UPG on access switches to enforce ACL-based segmentation, intrusion prevention signatures, and dynamic traffic policing for IoT, guest Wi-Fi, and VoIP. This approach hardens the network perimeter, ensures compliance with data-privacy regulations, and improves average voice MOS scores by 25%.
