Chapter 3 Product Overview
3.1 Preface
H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches are wire speed L2/L3 Ethernet switches
developed by H3C Technology. They are intelligent network management switches
intended for a network environment where high performance, dense port distribution,
and ease of installation are required.
The H3C S3610&S5510 series are designed to accommodate the convergence on
Intranets and metropolitan area networks (MANs) and to meet the requirements at the
access layer. Supporting IPv4/IPv6 double stack, they offer abundant service features
and routing functionalities.

Applications
4.1.1 Broadband Ethernet Access for Residential Communities
On the broadband access network of a residential community, an H3C S3610 switch is
located in the center. It is downlinked to Layer 2 switches (such as S3100 series) to
reach the Ethernet users and uplinked to a core Layer 3 switch through a GE extension
module to connect to the MAN backbone.

4.1.3 Application in Large Enterprise and Campus Networks
In a large enterprise or campus network, the H3C S3610 series are located at the
convergence layer. They are downlinked to Layer 2 switches, S3100 Series for
example; and uplinked to a layer 3 switch through GE interfaces. These switches
together provide a network-wide intranet solution that covers gigabit-to-backbone and
100 Mbps-to-desktop.

4.2.1 Broadband Ethernet Access for Residential Communities
An H3C S5510 series Ethernet switch can operate on the distribution layer of a
broadband MAN. You can connect it to a backbone router or Layer 3 switch in the uplink
direction through its GigabitEthernet optical ports, and connect it to Layer 2/Layer 3
devices operating as the portal devices of community networks through its
GigabitEthernet optical ports. Additionally, you can use multiple GigabitEthernet ports
to form GigabitEthernet trunk ports so as to broaden the uplink and downlink
bandwidth.

In the branches of a small-/medium-sized or large enterprises, you can use H3C S5510
series Ethernet switches as the backbone layer devices. In this case, network devices
can connect to an S5510 Ethernet switch in the following ways.
z Connecting the Layer 2/Layer 3 Ethernet switches (such as S3026/3526 Ethernet
switches) of workgroups to GigabitEthernet optical ports or electrical interfaces
z Connecting to the other floors/buildings through long-/short-haul GigabitEthernet
optical ports
z Connecting to the server directly through GigabitEthernet/100 Mbps electrical
ports or connecting to the server group through the Layer 2/Layer 3 Ethernet
switches in the workgroup through GigabitEthernet/100 Mbps electrical ports
