Cisco Switch 4500Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series switches are designed for enterprise LAN access, branch offices, Layer 3 distribution points, small and medium-sized businesses, and metropolitan (metro) Ethernet deployments. The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series comprises a series of chassis ranging from 3 to 10 slots and a set of supervisor engines delivering up to 136 Gbps of Layer 2-4 switching. The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series supports an extensive set of line cards, including high-density 10/100, 10/100/1000 (both with 802.3af Power over Ethernet [PoE] options), 100BASE-FX, 100BASE-LX10, 100BASE-BX-D, Gigabit Ethernet, and 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series offers a price-performance range of chassis: Cisco Catalyst 4510R (10 slots with redundant supervisor option), Cisco Catalyst 4507R (7 slots with redundant supervisor option), Cisco Catalyst 4506 (6 slots) and Cisco Catalyst 4503 (3 slots).

Advanced Security
Support for Cisco patented Layer 2 and Layer 3 security features prevents security breaches from rogue servers as well as "man-in-the-middle" attacks where passwords and data may be intercepted. Switching performance is independent of the number of security policies or advanced Layer 3 services enabled.

Converged Services
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series switches help organizations gain a competitive advantage through increased productivity, organizational flexibility, and reduced operational costs. Integration of data, voice, and video onto a single (IP-based) network requires a switching infrastructure such as the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series that can distinguish each traffic type with headroom for growth and manage it according to its unique requirements.
