WS-C6504E-S32P10GE Use Case
High-Density Data Center Spine Aggregation with WS-C6504E-S32P10GE-Cat6504E
In a large-scale data center, the WS-C6504E-S32-10GE-PISA line card installed in a WS-C6504E chassis aggregates traffic from multiple leaf switches over 10 GbE links. Paired with redundant Fan Trays (req.P/S), this configuration delivers up to 320 Gbps of non-blocking bandwidth per slot. Benefit: Achieves predictable low-latency spine performance, simplifies capacity expansion, and ensures continuous cooling redundancy for 24/7 operation.
Enterprise Campus Core Upgrade Using WS-C6504E and WS-S32-10GE-PISA
An enterprise campus core migrates to 10 Gigabit uplinks by deploying WS-S32-10GE-PISA modules in a WS-C6504E chassis, supported by dual Fan Trays (req.P/S) for thermal resilience. This setup consolidates access switch uplinks into a high-performance core, reducing link count and power draw. Outcome: Streamlines network topology, boosts application response times by up to 40%, and maintains 99.999% availability through redundant cooling and hot-swappable components.
Service Provider Edge with Resilient 10 GbE Ports and Redundant Cooling
A service provider’s Metro Ethernet edge leverages the WS-C6504E chassis populated with WS-S32-10GE-PISA line cards to deliver customer-facing 10 GbE circuits. Dual Fan Trays (req.P/S) guarantee continuous airflow under peak loads. Benefit: Delivers scalable multi-tenant bandwidth aggregation, ensures SLA adherence with sub-millisecond failover, and simplifies maintenance via hot-swappable cooling modules.
