Convergence Time

By default, RSTP used for all COMMANDO SoldierOS and it takes less than 10 seconds for the network to converge. RSTP converges faster because it uses a handshake mechanism based on point-to-point links instead of the timer-based process used by STP.

IP multicast snooping and IGMP automatically prevent flooding of IP multicast traffic.

IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) facilitates easy mapping using network management applications with LLDP automated device discovery protocol

LLDP-MED (Media Endpoint Discovery) defines a standard extension of LLDP that stores values for parameters such as QoS and VLAN to configure automatically network devices such as IP phones.

IEEE 802.3ad Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LACP) and port trunking support up to 8 static, dynamic, or distributed trunks with each trunk having up to eight links (ports) per static trunk. Lag links provides easy-to-configure link redundancy of active and standby links.

Security

The AAA feature allows you to verify the identity of, grant access to, and track the actions of users. The COMMANDO Soldier E2000 Series Switches support Remote Access Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) or Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus (TACACS+) protocols.

Based on the user ID and password combination that you provide, the COMMANDO Soldier E2000 Series Switches perform local authentication or authorization using the local database or remote authentication or authorization using one or more AAA servers. A pre-shared secret key provides security for communication between the COMMANDO Soldier E2000 Series Switches and AAA servers. You can configure a common secret key for all AAA servers or for only a specific AAA server.

Power Budget According to Cable Length

Ideally, shorter cables would use less power because of less power degradation over their length This is not the case with most devices as they will use the same amount of power across the cable regardless of whether it is 10 or 100 meters in length. These switches analyze the length of the Ethernet cable connected and adjusts the power usage accordingly, rather than keeping the power consumption in a conventional solution.

Bandwidth Specifications

COMMANDO Soldier E2000 Series Switches use Store-and-forward switching which means that the LAN switch copies each complete frame into the switch memory buffers and computes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) for errors. The switching capacity (backplane bandwidth) of a switch refers to the maximum amount of data that can be transmitted between a switch interface processor or interface card and a data bus. The switching capacity indicates the total data exchange capability of the switch, in Gbps. The Forwarding Rate is a measure of how many packets per second the switch can process for certain sized packets. Forwarding rate, refers to the number of network packets that can be processed by switch. The Forwarding rate is measured in million packets per second (Mpps).

Weight and Dimension

Soldier E2000 Series Switches offers best in class from package dimensions to weight, destination, value, and shipment type.
Soldier E2000 Series Switches Model Dimensions specifications are suitable for Industry standard Rack/Wall mounting. Industry Standard Rack/Wall mounted describes a unit of electronic equipment that is housed in a metal framework called an equipment rack. Usually, an equipment rack contains multiple "bays," each designed to hold a unit of equipment of standard dimensions.

SFP/SFP+ Slots Specifications

The SFP/SFP+ transceiver is a compact, hot-swappable device that plugs into a physical port of a network device. SFP optics are used in communication networks and have a transmitting side (Tx) and a receiving side (Rx). The different SFP transceivers work with different wavelengths at an appointed distance.

Soldier E2000 Series Switches mostly uses extra, separate ports for SFP and copper Uplinks to have that extra advantage of using copper and fiber ports at same time to increase the port capacity of switch as well as combo port options in some models, also known as optoelectronic multiplexing interface, is the photoelectric composite port (panel) with two kinds of Ethernet interfaces (RJ45 port and SFP port) on an Ethernet switch. Usually, the RJ45 port is connected by the twisted pairs while the SFP port needs copper or optical modules and patch cables. The obvious merit of combo as well as separate interface is that you still have more flexibility in terms of choosing your network connectivity type without taking up too much space.
