''Smart'' Interface Cards

To minimize down-time and achieve higher levels of availability, the JumboSwitch features "smart" interface cards. All cards can be changed or replaced under power and Ethernet Cards are self configuring. Self configuring includes automatically downloading all key traffic engineering parameters on Ethernet cards (e.g. VLANs, traffic prioritization, and port/card rate limiting). This minimizes down-time and helps prevent configuration mistakes due to human error.

• 
  Hot-Swappable Cards
  All JumboSwitch interface cards are hot swappable; that is, they can be removed or replaced during operation without powering down a node or system.
• 
  Self-Configuring Cards
  All key traffic engineering parameters on Ethernet cards (including VLANs, traffic prioritization, and port/card rate limiting) are downloaded automatically to the new interface card. This minimizes down-time and helps prevent configuration mistakes due to human error.
• 
  Modular Design
  All JumboSwitch Interface cards are modular and can be used with all four chassis and cage options including 1U, 2S, 2U and 4U. This allows for pay-as-you-grow scalability. Future proof migration, including 10GigE, is guaranteed.
