The Cisco C1-C6816-X-LE is a high-end enterprise-class modular switch designed to meet the needs of large-scale networks and data centers. Built on a robust WS-C6816-X 16-slot chassis, it delivers powerful hardware-accelerated performance for next-generation applications that demand speed, scale, and reliability. With support for comprehensive VPN solutions, the C1-C6816-X-LE enables secure multi-site connectivity, ensuring efficient deployment for geographically distributed enterprises. The switch's architecture is optimized for superior port scalability, offering a maximum of 512 10G or 128 40G interfaces, making it ideal for dense networking requirements in evolving enterprise, data center, and service provider environments. Hardware-accelerated routing and forwarding enables seamless IPv4/IPv6 transition, handling up to 64,000 IPv6 routes with uncompromised performance. Its advanced capabilities include 11.4 Tbps of switch fabric bandwidth and up to 6 Bpps forwarding, backed by a resilient, redundant design (1+1 supervisor engine, N+1 fan trays, dual AC/DC power supplies). Designed for flexibility, the modular slots support a range of line cards, allowing tailored port configurations to fit dynamic business needs in Asia, Europe, Africa, or North America. Furthermore, robust security with 256,000 ACL entries, dynamic ARP inspection, DHCP snooping, and full L2/L3 MPLS VPN support keep your critical assets protected. The C1-C6816-X-LE offers unprecedented reliability, scalability, and advanced virtualization for demanding environments, making it an optimal choice for distributors, system integrators, and end users seeking future-ready backbone infrastructure.
