PCs and servers. All 24 ports of the
BayStack 460 Switch can be powered.
High-density Power over
Ethernet switch
The BayStack 460-24T-PWR Switch has
24 10/100 Mbps ports, one MDA (Media
Dependent Adapter) slot for uplink connec-
tivity, and one cascade module slot for
stacking. Up to eight switches can be stacked
to achieve up to 224 10/100 ports (using
4-port 10/100 Mbps MDA per switch).
The 2.5 Gbps cascading bandwidth offers
dedicated bandwidth between switches
without sacrificing any uplink ports.
The uplink ports can be used for connec-
tions to backbone switches such as the
Passport 8600 Switch.
Part of the successful BayStack* family,
Nortel Networks BayStack 460-24T-PWR
Power over Ethernet Switch is a resilient,
secure stackable switch with Power over
Ethernet (PoE) capabilities to IEEE P802.3af
draft-compliant devices such as IP phones,
wireless access points, net cameras, security
and lighting devices, and access control
devices (badge readers) (Figure 1).
The switch has all of the features of the
BayStack Business Policy Switch such as
advanced Quality of Service (QoS) and
high-resiliency, with the addition of Power
over Ethernet capability. It enables enter-
prise customers to power devices while
maintaining connectivity to standard
10/100 Mbps Ethernet devices such as
