Enterasys B5G124-48
- Technical Specifications:
- Ports: It has 48 Ethernet ports, which can support various network devices such as computers, servers, and IP phones. Some of the ports may support higher speeds, such as 10 – Gigabit Ethernet, to meet the demands of high – bandwidth applications.
- Switching Capacity: Has a substantial switching capacity, measured in gigabits per second, which allows it to forward packets quickly and efficiently between different ports, reducing network latency.
- Stacking Capability: May support stacking, which enables multiple switches to be connected together and managed as a single logical unit. This provides scalability and simplifies network management.

- Functional Characteristics:
- Link Aggregation: Allows multiple physical ports to be combined into a single logical link, increasing the bandwidth between the switch and other network devices. It also provides redundancy, as if one link fails, the traffic can be automatically rerouted through the remaining links.
- Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) Support: Helps prevent network loops by blocking redundant paths in the network topology. When a link fails, STP can quickly reconfigure the network to use alternative paths, ensuring network connectivity.
- Application Scenarios:
- Medium – Sized Enterprise Networks: In a medium – sized enterprise with multiple departments and a large number of employees, this switch can be used as a core or distribution switch, connecting different departmental networks and providing high – bandwidth access to network resources.
- Campus Networks: For college or university campus networks, it can be used to connect buildings within the campus, providing reliable and high – speed connectivity for students, faculty, and staff.
