OmniSwitch 9000 family


Our award-winning family of high-end modular core switches.

Overview

9000Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 9000 Chassis LAN Switch series is comprised of full featured layer-2 and layer-3, high-performance 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GigE) switches that provide advanced security, IPv4 and IPv6 routing, quality of service (QoS) and power over Ethernet (PoE) support. Its industry awards, benchmark-setting performance and high reliability, makes it an industry best value for next generation networks.

Models & Management

  • OmniSwitch 9800 - Our high-performance enterprise workhorse that works with extremely low power consumption. Ideal for smart continuous switching operations.
  • OmniSwitch 9700 - Designed for the enterprise core and aggregation layer, it can also be deployed in the closet
  • OmniSwitch 9600 - An affordable core supporting converged voice, video, data and other applications. Ideal as an entry point
  • OmniVista 2500 Network Management System and its supplemental services is the foundation for managing the networks composed of OmniSwitches and other network devices

Industry Awards

Tolly Tested - Functionality Certification and Cooperative Interoperability Evaluation: Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850 and OmniSwitch 9800, switches shown to be interoperable with competitors in more than a dozen tests to meet The Tolly Group's "Up to Spec" certification. (July 2007)
Network Computing's "Editor's choice Award": OmniSwitch 9700 takes Network Computing's "Editor's choice Award." (10 March 2006)
The OmniSwitch 9000E is a newer version of the OmniSwitch 9000 family. The OmniSwitch 9000E family offers additional capabilities such as multiple virtual routing and forwarding, MPLS, in-service software upgrade capabilities and extremely low power consumption.

Features

Improved aggregation switching
The OS9000 addresses aggregation requirements:

  • Increased options for wire-rate GigE ports (copper, fiber, PoE)
  • Broad range of 10G port density per network interface module and chassis
  • Enhanced performance with hardware-based forwarding at first packet and distributed architecture
  • Easy ACL management with OmniVista 2760 SecureView ACL and wire-rate performance with support for large numbers of ACLs
  • OneTouch VoIP and video performance with OmniVista PolicyView
  • Resilient design with redundant fans and power supply featuring (1+1 redundancy)
  • High-availability in network designs with dual-aggregation switch through extensive support of L2/L3 protocols for smart use of network topology redundancy

Improved wiring closet connectivity
The OS9000 addresses wiring closet requirements with:

  • Improved network response time through hardware-based forwarding at first packet
  • Power-over-Ethernet support for IP telephones and WLAN access points
  • Enhanced security with user-centric security featuring Alcatel Access Guardian
  • Isolation of intruders with OmniVista 2770 Quarantine Manager
  • Easy ACL management with OmniVista 2760 SecureView ACL and wire-rate performance with large numbers of ACLs
  • OneTouch VoIP and video performance with OmniVista PolicyView
  • Future proof support for multi-media applications with wire-rate multicasting

IPv6
In the five to seven-year life of a chassis LAN switch (Current Analysis, Dell’oro) support for IPv6 is either essential or prudent risk management. The OS9000 family supports IPv6 and IPv4 at wire rates.
