Difference between 4500 and 4900.

Aug 21, 2006 1 Replies

Hi all,



I thought 4900 was a higher and more configurable switch series. But I saw 4900 has les modules and the overall components (the chassis) are cheaper than 4500.



What do they differ by?



TIA Alex.


4900 has les modules and the overall

~350 ports is a place to start.

I have the idea that it is like a 4500 Supervisor (decent newish one, IV or V) and a

48 port GBE card in a 1U package.

The idea is that you deploy one per rack in your comms room.

Search CCO for 4900 for more.
