In a university campus spanning five buildings, IT teams install the WS-X4590-E Catalyst 4500 Enhanced 48-Port 10/100/1000 Base-T (RJ-45) Linecard in redundant Supervisor Engine chassis to aggregate 1 Gbps uplinks from 24 edge switches. This deployment delivers wire-speed forwarding, per-port QoS and VLAN segmentation, simplifying network management and supporting bandwidth-intensive e-learning applications. Outcome: Seamless campus-wide connectivity, predictable performance and streamlined operations at scale.
A mid-market data center integrates the WS-X4590-E linecard into a Catalyst 4500 chassis as a top-of-rack (ToR) aggregator for 10 server racks running VMware ESXi. Leveraging 48 1 GbE RJ-45 ports with 802.1Q trunking, redundant supervisor modules and hardware-based forwarding, the solution consolidates east-west traffic, accelerates VM migrations and maintains sub-millisecond latency. Outcome: Enhanced throughput, high availability and optimized virtual workload performance.
An enterprise contact center deploys the WS-X4590-E 48-port 1 GbE RJ-45 linecard in its Catalyst 4500 to connect 200 IP phones and 50 access points across a single rack. Built-in QoS, rate limiting and Cisco TrustSec integration ensure voice and wireless traffic receive priority treatment. Outcome: Superior voice quality, minimized jitter and centralized policy enforcement for unified communications and guest-Wi-Fi services.
