Cisco Catalyst 6506-E Switch managed 8 x SFP desktop with Supervisor Engine 32 Network Switch

Cisco Catalyst 6506-E WS-C6506E-S32GE-RF

The Cisco WS-C6506E-S32GE-RF is a managed switch from the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series, making it a dependable option for distribution and core roles in medium and large enterprise networks.

The Cisco Catalyst 6506-E is equipped with 8 x SFP desktop for a flexible mix of connections. Fiber-ready transceiver slots extend your network across floors, buildings or campuses with the optic of your choice. Standards-based Ethernet ensures interoperability with routers, firewalls, servers and endpoints from other vendors. Optical links resist electrical noise and reach far beyond copper limits, which is useful between buildings.

As a managed switch it gives administrators full control over how traffic is segmented, prioritized and secured. It runs on Cisco IOS, so it fits existing management tools and operating procedures. VLAN segmentation isolates sensitive systems from general user traffic. Stable switching is the foundation for every application your users rely on. Spanning tree support lets you design in backup paths safely. Plan which ports will serve end devices and which will act as uplinks to keep cabling tidy and future changes simple. Traffic prioritization ensures real-time applications get the bandwidth they need.

Physically, it uses a desktop format for a clean, organized installation. Condition: Cisco Certified Refurbished (-RF). In the aggregation layer it brings together traffic from access switches and connects it to servers and the WAN. A dedicated switch gives your network a central, organized connection point for wired devices. Redundant topologies with alternate paths are well supported at this layer. Use the manufacturer part number WS-C6506E-S32GE-RF to make sure you order exactly the configuration you need.
