WS-X4424-GB-RJ45 Use Case

FTTH Last-Mile Aggregation for Service Providers with WS-X4424-GB-RJ45 & GLC-FE-100BX-D48

In a multi-dwelling FTTH rollout, network operators deploy the WS-X4424-GB-RJ45 Base-X FE linecard in a Catalyst 4500-E switch chassis and populate all 48 SFP slots with GLC-FE-100BX-D48 modules. This architecture delivers 100 Mbps Ethernet to each subscriber over single-mode fiber, centralizes service provisioning, scales to thousands of ports per shelf, and reduces operational costs by up to 30% through simplified fiber aggregation and automated provisioning.

Campus-Wide Fiber-to-Desktop Connectivity in Enterprise Environments

A global enterprise integrates WS-X4424-GB-RJ45 Base-X FE linecards in its core Catalyst switches and uses GLC-FE-100BX-D48 SFP FTTH modules at seven building distribution closets. Each module provides secure fiber uplinks to IP phones, workstations, and Wi-Fi APs across 2 km spans. The result is consistent Fast Ethernet performance, enhanced physical security, streamlined cable management, and centralized QoS enforcement for voice and data traffic.

Protected Metro-Ethernet Ring for Financial Institution Business Continuity

A regional bank implements a dual-chassis ring using two Catalyst 4500-E switches equipped with WS-X4424-GB-RJ45 Base-X FE linecards and GLC-FE-100BX-D48 FTTH modules over dark fiber. The Fast Ethernet ring runs sub-50 ms protection switching, ensuring uninterrupted connectivity for ATM networks, core transaction servers, and VPN gateways. This design maximizes network uptime, simplifies failover configurations, and supports regulatory compliance for high-availability financial services.
