The Cisco® Catalyst® 4500 Series provides scalable, nonblocking Layer 2-4 switching with secure, flexible, nonstop communications, enabling business resilience for enterprises, small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), and Metro Ethernet customers deploying business-critical applications.
Catalyst 4500 has a centralized forwarding architecture that enables collaboration, virtualization and operational manageablity through simplified operations. With forward and backward compatibility spanning multiple generations, the new Catalyst 4500 E-Series provides exceptional investment protection and deployment flexibility to meet the evolving needs of organizations of all sizes. Catalyst 4500 E-Series platform has 10G uplinks and PoEP support as standard enabling the customers to future proof their network.
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series includes two series of chassis: the Catalyst 4500 E-Series and classic Catalyst 4500 Series chassis. Catalyst 4500 E-Series chassis (Figure 1) are extremely flexible and support both 6 Gbps and 24 Gbps per line card slot. The classic Catalyst 4500 Series chassis supports 6 Gbps per line card slot. There are four models of Catalyst 4500 E-Series and classic Catalyst 4500 chassis: 10-slot, 7-slot, 6-slot, and 3-slot. Integrated resiliency in the Catalyst 4500-E and classic Catalyst 4500 Series include 1+1 supervisor engine redundancy (10-slot and 7-slot only), redundant fans, software-based fault tolerance, and 1+1 power supply redundancy. Integrated resiliency in both hardware and software minimizes network downtime, helping to ensure workforce productivity, profitability, and customer success.
Figure 1. Cisco Catalyst 4500 E-Series
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series extends control to the network edge with intelligent network services, including sophisticated quality of service (QoS),, predictable performance, advanced security, comprehensive management, and integrated resiliency. Scalability of these intelligent network services is made possible with dedicated, specialized resources known as ternary content addressable memory (TCAM). Ample TCAM resources (up to 384,000 entries) enable "high feature capacity," which provides wire-speed routing/switching performance independent of provisioning of services such as QoS and security.
Cisco Catalyst 4500 E-Series Chassis
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 E-Series offers four chassis options and eight supervisor engine options (Table 1). It provides a common architecture that can scale up to 388 ports. The Cisco Catalyst WS-C4507R-E and WS-C4510R-E offer high availability by supporting 1+1 redundant supervisor engines with subsecond failover time and full-image In Service Software Upgrades (ISSUs). Non stop forwarding with Stateful Switchover (NSF/SSO) and ISSU ensure continuous packet forwarding during Supervisor engine switchover to ensure high availability for collaboration applications and VoIP. Using the same line cards as the widely deployed Catalyst 4000 Series Switches and classic Catalyst 4500 Series Switches, the Catalyst 4500-E Series furthers Cisco's commitment to affordable enterprise and branch scalability.

Network Management
Cisco Network Assistant
The Cisco Network Assistant application manages standalone devices from anywhere on your intranet. Using its GUI, you can perform multiple configuration tasks without using command-line interface (CLI) commands. You can apply actions to multiple devices and ports at the same time for VLAN and quality-of-service (QoS) settings, inventory and statistics reports, link and device monitoring, software upgrades, and many other networking features.
Cisco Network Assistant simplifies device management by offering an intuitive GUI, alternative modes for configuring network devices, two levels of access, and comprehensive online help. It features two modes of display: device view and topology view. In the device view, the Catalyst 4500 Series administrator may configure the switch, configure ports on the switch, or configure groups of ports. In the topology view, the administrator may configure VLAN settings, configure EtherChannels, and view a variety of reports on system and network status.

Fan Trays
Each Cisco Catalyst 4500-E Series and classic Catalyst 4500 Series chassis uses a single fan tray for cooling. All fan trays are composed of independent fans. If one fan fails, the system will continue to operate without a significant degradation in cooling. The system will detect and notify the user (through LED, command-line interface [CLI], and SNMP) that a fan has failed and the tray needs to be replaced. Catalyst 4500-E Series fans cannot be interchanged with classic Catalyst 4500 Series fans. The classic Catalyst 4500 Series chassis needs an E-Series fan tray in order to support the Metro Supervisor Engine 6-E.
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 and 4500-E Series redundancy scheme uses removable fabric-redundancy modules on the passive backplane to switch traffic to the active supervisor engine. There is one fabric-redundancy module per line card. Fabric-redundancy modules and redundant clocks ship standard with every Cisco Catalyst 4507R-E, 4507R, 4510R-E, and 4510R chassis. Fabric-redundancy modules cannot be interchanged between the Catalyst 4500-E and classic Catalyst 4500 chassis. Spare fabric-redundancy modules and clock modules are available for serviceability.
Environmental Conditions
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 and 4500-E Series require the following conditions:
• Operating temperature: 32 to 104ºF (0 to 40ºC)
• Storage temperature: -40 to 167ºF (-40 to 75ºC)
• Relative humidity: 10 to 90 percent, noncondensing
• Operating altitude: -60 to 2000 meters (m)
