Alcatel-Lucent OmniStack 6200 10/100 L2+ Stackable Ethernet Switches
The OmniStack 6200 (OS6200) is a new family of 10/100 L2+ Ethernet workgroup switches that offer tremendous value to the enterprise and to multiple service operators (MSOs). This new family offers a complete solution right out-of-the-box with built-in miniGBIC and copper Gigabit uplinks, fault-tolerant dedicated stacking using standard Ethernet cabling, and Power over Ethernet.
OS6200 models include 24- and 48- port versions with PoE derivatives, a space saving design, innovative and cost effective 1:1 backup chassis and PoE power, and a feature set that is capable of supporting converged applications and emerging security solutions.
A compact, one unit (1U) high form factor, all in one stackable design and a comprehensive set of features makes the Alcatel-Lucent OmniStack 6200 perfect for:
- Enterprise workgroups / LAN wiring closets
- Edge deployments, small-/medium-sized businesses and branch offices
- Power-over-Ethernet
- Residential Ethernet access distribution devices (MDU) for triple play services delivery
The currently available Alcatel-Lucent OmniStack 6200 switches are:
- OS-LS-6212, OS-LS-6224, OS-LS-6248 which are Fast Ethernet L2+ stackable fixed configuration chassis in a 1U form factor consisting respectively of 12, 24 or 48 10/100 RJ-45 ports, two 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and two combo ports. Combo ports consist of two additional 10/100/1000 RJ-45 and two mini-GBIC ports. Mini-GBIC ports support Gigabit or 100FX Ethernet mini-GBIC (SFP) optical transceivers. Stacking capability uses the two 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and standard Ethernet cabling.
- OS-LS-6212P, OS-LS-6224P, OS-LS-6248P, which are Fast Ethernet L2+ stackable fixed configuration chassis in a 1U form factor consisting respectively of 12, 24 or 48 10/100 RJ-45 ports with power over Ethernet, two 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and two combo ports.
- OS-LS-6224U, which is a Fast Ethernet L2+ stackable fixed configuration chassis in a 1U form factor consisting of 24 100BaseX SFP ports, two 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and two combo ports. The 24 SFP ports accept industry standard 100Base-X optical transceivers.
The OmniStack 6200 family uses a modular external backup power solution that provides redundant chassis and PoE power on a 1:1 basis.
The OmniStack 6200 family complements the existing portfolio of Alcatel-Lucent enterprise fixed-configuration workgroup switches which includes:
- OmniSwitch 6602 family switches: stackable layer-3 10/100 with Gig uplinks
- OmniSwitch 6800 and 6850 family switches: stackable layer-3 10/100/1000 capable of 10Gig uplinks
OmniStack 6200 are supported by the Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista Network Management System and facilitates management of a converged, multi-vendor equipped network by supporting 802.1ab (LLDP link layer discovery protocol) and the media-endpoint discover (LLDP-MED) extensions.
