Main features

S5000 series full Gigabit access + 10G uplink Layer3 switch, compatible with POE function, leading in the development of energy saving function, is the next generation of intelligent access switches for carrier resident networks and enterprise networks. With rich software functions, layer 3 routing protocols, simple management, and flexible installation, the product can meet various complex scenarios.

A third layer switch is a special device used in computer networks. It combines the functions of traditional switches and routers, making it versatile and useful for managing network connections. Unlike the traditional layer two switch that sends information based on the physical address (MAC address) of the connected device, the third layer switch can also be configured based on the network layer (IP address). This makes data transmission on the network smarter and more efficient.

Our company has more than 10 years of R&D experience in China’s telecommunications industry and offers a wide range of network products, including three-layer switching devices. Our 3-layer switches come with a wide range of features and capabilities to meet the needs of our customers. From support for multiple communication protocols such as RIP, OSPF and PIM to Power over Ethernet (POE), our 3 systems are designed to make communications management and operation easier.

In addition to standard features, our 3-layer switch also supports IPv4/IPv6 dual protocol, auto sleep technology, slow group functions and integrated network management. These advanced features make our 3 systems ideal for modern meeting rooms that require high performance, robustness and energy efficiency.

Additionally, our 3-layer switches offer one or two power supply options providing reusability and reliability for critical communications. Additionally, our switches can handle high-speed data transfers with models supporting 1G, 40G, and even 100G speeds. This makes them suitable for a variety of web applications, from small businesses to large enterprises.

In summary, a Layer 3 switch is a useful tool for optimizing network operations and management. With our experience and communication skills, we are committed to providing the best 3-step process to meet the changing needs of today’s network. Whether you need simple conversion or advanced functionality, our Series 3 converters provide solutions for your networking needs.
