The Cisco® Embedded Service 2020 Series Switches are optimized for mobile and embedded networks that require switching capability in harsh environments. Customers in such industries as oil and gas, mining, transportation, and defense are all increasingly requiring IP based networks. The flexible, compact form factor of the switch cards, complemented by Cisco IOS® Software, provides highly secure data, voice, and video communications to stationary and mobile network nodes.
Product Overview
The ESS 2020 is designed for embedded applications requiring low cost, small size, and ruggedization:
• Consists of main board and optional port expansion board
• Conforms to common PC104 form factor board size (approximately 4" x 4")
• Main board:
– 2x Gigabit Combo ports: Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) (100 Mb and 1G) or RJ45 uplink
– 8x 10/100BASE-T Ethernet ports
– RS-232 console
• Expansion board (optional): 16x 10/100BASE-T Ethernet ports
• Common +3.3Vdc and +5Vdc power inputs
• Onboard Ethernet magnetics
Primary Features
• Security: Dot1x, port security, and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) allow dynamic port-base authentication; Secure Shell Version 2 (SSHv2); Simple Network Management Protocol Version 3 (SNMPv3) provides encrypted administrator traffic during Telnet and SNMP sessions; TACACS+ and RADIUS authentication facilitate centralized control and restrict unauthorized users
• Resiliency: Flex links for fast recovery, Cisco Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP) for fast convergence
• Manageability: Auto SmartPort, Web Device Manager, Telnet, HTTPS access, and SNMP
Switch performance and scalability
• Line rate/nonblocking application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC)-based architecture
• Forwarding rate: 6.6Mpps with 64-byte frames
• Forwarding bandwidth: 4.4Gbps
• Egress buffer: 2MB
• Unicast MAC addresses: 8000
• IGMP multicast groups: 255
• Max VLANs: 255
• IPv4 MAC security ACEs: 384 (default TCAM template)
