Chapter 1 Product Overview

1.1 Introduction

H3C S5510 Series Ethernet Switches (hereinafter referred to as S5510 series) are wire

speed Layer 2/3 Ethernet switches developed by Hangzhou H3C Technologies Co., Ltd.

They are intelligent network-manageable switches intended for network environments

requiring high performance, dense port distribution, and ease of installation.

Table 1-1 lists the models in the S5510 series:

The S5510 series provides two power slots on its rear panel: PWR1 and PWR2, and

accommodates a power module in PWR1 and a dummy panel on PWR2 when leaving

factory. In practice, you can choose an appropriate power module (AC or DC–input

module) for PWR2 according to your needs, which is used for the redundancy of the

module in PWR1.

Each of the four 1000 Mbps Combo SFP ports corresponds to a 10/100/1000Base-T

auto-negotiation Ethernet port, so there are four pairs of associated ports, as show in

Table 1-2. In each pair of ports, you can use only one port at a time.
