Big Iron 4000

BigIron®

Foundry's chassis-based BigIron family of Layer 3 Backbone Switches for the campus, MAN and LAN environments delivers up to 3.84 Terabits per second of backplane switching capacity, dramatically reducing network bottlenecks with wire-speed IP routing. With this capacity, the BigIron RX Series scales to support 192 separate 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports in a single 7 foot rack. The entire BigIron family scales to easily handle several hundred non-blocking Gigabit Ethernet ports at a peak performance of up to 1.14 Billion packets per second—delivering greater performance than competitive switches and routers at a much lower price.

BigIron RX Series SwitchesBigIron RX Series Switches

First 2.2 Billion packet per second switch that scales cost effectively from the Enterprise edge to the core

Scalable hardware-based IP routing to 512,000 IP routes per line module

High-availability design features redundant and hot-pluggable hardware, hitless software upgrades, and graceful BGP and OSPF restart
