Cisco Catalyst 3750 Metro Series Switches
Product Overview
The Cisco® Catalyst® 3750 Metro Series switches are new multilayer switches that bring greater intelligence to the metro Ethernet edge, enabling the delivery of more differentiated metro Ethernet services. Featuring hierarchical QoS and traffic shaping, intelligent 802.1Q tunneling QoS, VLAN mapping, Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Ethernet over MPLS support, and redundant AC or DC power, these switches are ideal for service providers looking to deliver profitable business services, such as Layer 2/Layer 3 and MPLS VPNs, in a variety of bandwidths and with different service-level agreements. And with flexible software options, the Cisco Catalyst 3750 Metro Series offers providers a cost-effective path for meeting current and future service requirements from enterprises and commercial businesses.
As an addition to the Cisco Metro Ethernet access switching portfolio, which includes the industry-leading Cisco Catalyst 3550 and Catalyst 2950 series switches, the Cisco Catalyst 3750 Metro Series switches provide enhanced QoS, broader Layer 2 and Layer 3 VPN offerings, as well as power redundancy for carrier-class metro Ethernet services with service quality guarantees. By using the Cisco Catalyst 3750 Metro Series switches for metro access with Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series and 4500 Series switches and Cisco 7600 Series routers in the aggregation/core, service providers are able to build a flexible, integrated network with intelligence end-to-end.
Availability
The new Cisco Catalyst 3750 Metro Series switches will be available in January 2004.
