ZXR10 5900 series L3 all gigabit routing switches are box-like 1 RU height layer 3 routing switches. ZXR10 5900 series switches provide high density GE Ethernet ports, complete L2 switching and L3 routing functionalities, enhanced POE/POE+ ability, enabling them to be deployed as access or convergence devices for intelligent campus networks.

ZXR10 5900 offers following switch types:

5928:       20*GE RJ45 + 4*GE Combo + 4*expansion card slot

5928-PS: 20*GE RJ45 (POE/POE+) + 4*GE Combo (Electrical ports support POE/POE+) + 4*expansion card slot

5928-FI:   20*GE SFP  + 4*GE Combo + 4*expansion card slot

5952:       44*GE RJ45 + 4*GE Combo + 4*expansion card slot

Each expansion slot can be equipped with one of following two types of cards: 

1*10GE XFP / 1*10GE CX4 stacking card 

Advantages

ZXR10 5900 have complete L2 switching and L3 routing capabilities; it also supports POE, stacking and comprehensive security and reliability related features.

Full Service Support

ZXR10 5900 series switches support diversified VLAN features, including port-based VLAN, SuperVLAN, QinQ, selective QinQ, VLAN translation and PVLAN.

 VLAN translation can be used to separate and distinguish services, while PVLAN can help restrict the direct L2 communication between downlink ports.

 QinQ and selective QinQ enable the administrator to distinguish user and service at the access side effectively. 

 ZXR10 5900 support routing mechanisms including static routing, RIP, OSPF, IS-IS and BGP.

Multicast based technologies like video-surveillance and videoconference are becoming more and more popular these days. ZXR10 5900 series switches fully support L2/L3 multicast mechanisms, including IGMPv1/v2/v3 snooping, proxy and fast-leave, MVR (Multicast VLAN Registration) and PIM-SM.

Super Extensible Stacking

ZXR10 5900 supports super extensible stacking function, a working stack can accept new members or delete old ones without service interruption, Network extensibility is enhanced for user can freely increase the capacity of a single logical network node. N+1 redundancy for the master switch help avoid single-point failure and reduces service breakdown. ZXR10 5900 series switch can provide long-distance (up to 120km) stacking solution. Access interfaces from different member switches can be used to form a logical smartgroup, fully leveraging the capacity of each single switch member, and increase the flexibility of designing network.

Intelligent Power Over Ethernet

All the electrical access interfaces of ZXR10 5928-PS support POE and POE+, which go in line with 802.3af and 802.3at standards, and are compatible with PD equipments that doesn't support 802.3af and 802.3at. For POE, the power output per single interface can reach 15.4W, For POE+, the power output per single interface can reach 30W. 

POE provides a lower total cost of ownership for employments that incorporate IP phones, wireless LAN (WLAN) access points, or any IEEE 802.3af-compliant end device. POE removes the need to connect power cable to each POE-enabled device and eliminates the cost for additional electrical cabling and circuits, bringing great convenience in "Internet of things" age.  

ZXR10 5928-PS supports assigning time-ranges for POE, in time periods that doesn't need power output, the POE function can be turned off, saving energy for the customer.  

Enhanced-reliability

Loop detection allows switch to detect possible loops without the need to enable STP.  

With UDLD (uni-Directional Link Detection), uni-directional link failure caused by wiring mistake or port failure can be detected. 

ZXR10 5900 fully support 802.3ad LACP (link aggregation control protocol) to provide redundancy in case link failure happens, and to broaden bandwidth.

When deployed in layer 2 environment, ZESR/ZESR+ (ZTE Ethernet Smart Ring) and ZESS (ZTE Ethernet Smart Switching) can be used to realize fast switchover in case of single point failure. 

ZXR10 5900 supports both close ring ZESR and open ring ZESR+, which are very good network redundancy solutions in ring topology networks.

ZESS is a very simple yet effective means to realize dual-homing purpose. 

Compared with STP, the biggest advantage is that the link will switch and recover quickly when one way is disconnected and the time needed to switchover is less than 50ms. ZESR/ZESR+ support VLAN load balancing to enable efficient utilization of redundant links.

Enhanced-Security

ZXR10 5900 supports diversified mechanisms to guarantee the security of the network: 

CPU DDOS (Distributed Denial of Service) protection capability helps the equipment to mitigate the influence caused by attacks. Equipment itself won't be brought down to ensure the network stability.

DAI (Dynamic ARP inspection) function and IP/MAC binding help prevent against DOS (Denial of Service) attacks.

802.1X can be used for authentication purpose. Working together with policy server, the user control policy can be applied to 3900A after the authentication is done. Bandwidth limit/Qos strategy can thus be implemented automatically.

Enhanced routing protocol communications, including simple password test and MD5 authentication can be used to prevent from the alteration of routing protocol interactions. 

Traffic mirroring/analyzing functions like RMON (remote monitoring), SPAN (switched port analyzer), RSPAN (remote switched port analyzer) and sFlow help analyze real-time network condition.
