OmniSwitch 6860(E/N)
High-performance stackable switch for campus core and distribution
Ideal for networks needing a compact design, high port density, and multi-gigabit Ethernet that can support for Wi-Fi 6, Layer 3, and a flexible network architecture for network expansion.
The Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6860 is a compact, high-density, advanced Gigabit and multi-Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) platform. It is designed for the most demanding of converged networks. Offering high-speed flexible uplinks, 200G stacking, industry leading 95W PoE, and high density 10G multi-gigabit ports ready for Wi-Fi 6, these Layer 3 switches are the right choice for the next generation of enterprise switching networks.

Key features
10G/25G Performance
Wire-rate 10GbE and 25GbE ports with non-blocking architecture for demanding campus backbone and distribution layer deployments.
SPB Fabric
Shortest Path Bridging creates an automated, self-forming network fabric that simplifies operations and provides MPLS-like services without the complexity.
High Availability
Virtual chassis stacking, redundant power supplies, and sub-second failover ensure continuous network availability for mission-critical environments.
Advanced Routing
Full Layer 3 routing with OSPF, BGP, VRF, and multicast support for complex enterprise network topologies.
