Cisco Catalyst 4500 Chassis
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series includes four Catalyst chassis: the Catalyst 4510R (10 slots), the Catalyst 4507R (seven slots), Catalyst 4506 (six slots), and Catalyst 4503 (three slots). Integrated resiliency enhancements offered in the Catalyst 4500 Series include 1+1 supervisor-engine redundancy (Catalyst 4507R and 4510R), redundant fans, software-based fault tolerance, and 1+1 power-supply redundancy. Integrated resiliency in both hardware and software minimizes network downtime, helping to ensure workforce productivity, profitability, and customer success.
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series extends control to the network edge with intelligent network services, including sophisticated quality of service (QoS), predictable performance, advanced security, comprehensive management, and integrated resiliency. Scalability of these intelligent network services is made possible with dedicated specialized resources known as ternary content addressable memory (TCAM). Ample TCAM resources (up to 192,000 entries) enable "high feature capacity," which provides wire-speed routing/switching performance with concurrent provisioning of services such as QoS and security. This helps ensure scalability for today's network requirements with ample room for future growth.
