3COM 3C35420 CORE BUILDER 3500 6 PORT FDDI SMF MODULE

The CoreBuilder 3500 switch defines Layer 3 switching, eliminating the question of switches versus routers. The CoreBuilder 3500 switch is the best of both technologies in a single platform; providing non-blocking, wire-speed, multiprotocol routing AND switching. With the CoreBuilder 3500 switch you don't have to compromise capacity or control and you get 10 times the performance for as low as 1/10th the price of legacy routers. The CoreBuilder 3500 switch is capable of supporting 10/100 Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, FDDI, and ATM; enabling expansion and migration to take your network into the next millenium. The CoreBuilder 3500 switch's sophisticated policy-based services and advanced management capabilities, enabled by TranscendWare software, allow you to configure and control the network while providing bandwidth when and where it's most needed. The CoreBuilder 3500 FDDI connects to multimode fiber-optic cable, providing a transmission distance of up to 2 km (1.2 mi) using 62.5 micron fiber.
