Portfolio Update Ethernet Switching / Wireless Campus Solutions 8

9 Stackable ERS Product Positioning
Ideal as: Access Switch for Large Enterprises: high-performance Gigabit-to-the-Desktop Aggregation (Distribution) Switch Core Switching solution for small Enterprises Top-of-Rack/Horizontal Stacking for the Data Centre Where 10GbE is required today ERS 5000 Ideal as: Access Switch for mid-to-large Enterprise Environments with either FE or GbE connectivity at the Edge, or both Where 10GbE Uplinks will become important ERS 4500 Ideal as: Access Switch for Branch Office or smaller Enterprise Campus: when Fast Ethernet-only is acceptable Low intensity convergence deployments ERS 2500

10 Stacking for the Edge Resiliency & Performance
Nortel Corporate Presentation Stacking for the Edge Resiliency & Performance Evolution of redundant self-healing stacking first introduced in 1998 True resilient stack IP management Load-balancing and fail-over protection with Distributed MLT and 802.3ad Automatic Unit Replacement Functionality to automatically reconfigure any replaced unit Support for up to 8 units in a stack Built-in stacking ports come standard on all switches Ethernet Routing Switch 2500 Ethernet Routing Switch 4500 Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 Ethernet Routing Switch 5600 Can Stack Together 4 Gbps/Switch 32 Gbps/Stack 40 Gbps/Switch 320 Gbps/Stack 80 Gbps/Switch 640 Gbps/Stack 144 Gbps/Switch 1.152 Tbps/Stack © 2004 Nortel

11 Lifetime Warranty on Stackable Switches
Lifetime Hardware Warranty Next Business Day Replacement Lifetime Technical Support Technical support for life Advanced Technical Support for 90 days Optional Software Subscription Nominal fee for software updates Industry-leading Warranty that complements Avaya’s genuine TCO advantage

12 2nd Generation Energy-Efficiency
Efficient by Design Reducing Campus layers & devices; less equipment translates into reduced consumption Optimized power consumption Drives immediate operational savings – up to 40% more efficient than rivals Service integration & device consolidation Reduces equipment levels, optimizes performance, & also streamlines management High-priority Phones remain available Energy Saver Low-priority Phones set to power-off mode PC connections set to power-save mode ES-enabled Switch Fully granular or ‘one-click’ configuration Enterprise LAN Network stays available, simply in ‘eco-mode’ Detailed views of consumption & savings Enterprise Policy Manager Network-wide energy policies & reporting

13 Modular Ethernet Product Positioning
Ideal as: Core Switch / Data Center Switch for large Enterprise High density 10Gig with high-availability & high-performance Sophisticated IP Routing & Network Virtualization VSP 9000 Ideal as: Core Switch for large Enterprise High-availability & high-performance Sophisticated IP Routing & Network Virtualization Modular Product Positioning To ensure that we’re starting from the same level of understanding it’s a good idea to correctly position the Modular part of the portfolio. The ERS 8300 is increasingly focussed on the mid-sized Enterprise and being deployed as the Core Switch, utilising the Switch Clustering capability to deliver always-on network, a good set of advanced features, all at a very aggressive price point. Traditionally is was deployed as the large, Enterprise-class Wiring Closet Switch, and is still used in this role by many Customers; the combination of high port-density and high-performance ensures a premium Wiring Closet solution. The ERS 8600 is currently the premium Modular Switch solution, although this will eventually change with the pending launch of the new VSP 9000 (forecast for 2H10). However for the time being the 8600 remains the high-end solution for very sophisticated network requirements; where either or both advanced features for absolute performance requires are driving the purchasing decisions. ERS 8600 Ideal as: Core Switch for mid-sized network or Access Switch for large Enterprises: Gigabit-to-the-Desktop Aggregation (Distribution) Switch in multi-tier networks Straightforward IP Routing & Network Virtualization ERS 8300

14 Introducing Next Gen Core – VSP9000
Availability – 2H/2010 Highly Reliable /Uninterruptable Service High Density GIG / 10GIG Core solution Ideal for Large Campus & Data Center Software Functionality Based on ERS8600 code SMLT/RSMLT Dual Core Operations focus Enhanced troubleshooting tools Architecture Scalable to 27 Terabits Mid-Plane CPU & SF : Separate Modules (fully redundant) N+1 Switch Fabric Capacity (6 total) Zero forwarding loss on first fabric failure 20% performance decrease on subsequent fails Modules 48 x 10/100/1000 Base-T 48 x SFP (GIG) 24 x SFP+ (GIG/10GIG)

15 Modular Competitive Landscape
Cisco: Catalyst 6500-E claims to preserve investment for Core; Catalyst 4500-E offers advanced functions & performance for Aggregation 6500-E has limited compatibility between Chassis, Supervisors, Line Cards, & Software causing high TCO; ERS 8600 provides excellent investment protection 4500-E lacks the performance, 10G density & scalability compared to ERS 8300 that offers higher performance & 10G port density It is true that 8200zl & 5400zl are priced lower than ERS & ERS 8300 but Customers pay big penalties for getting less denser & resilient platforms as well as lower performance The 3Com acquisition will add more advanced products but product rationalization in the progress HP ProCurve/3Com: 8200zl & 5400zl claims to provide the performance/density/scalability combined with low pricing to build their networks EX 8200 is a year old platform that competes more with our VSP 9000 & will ship in 2H10. VSP 9000 will offer much higher switching architecture, 10G port density & ultra-resiliency. Juniper: EX 8200 claims to offer high performance, line rate 10G & common Juno OS 15

16 Stackable Competitive Landscape
Stacking capacity is limited, only 64Gbps for the 3750 and marginally more for the 3750-E: compared to 1.152Tbps for the ERS 5600, and even 32Gbps for the entry-level 2500 Cisco places a lot of emphasis on Layer 3 at the Edge: this increases complexity, cost, & makes restoration more difficult Cisco: 3750 is the Stackable option; the 3750-E offers additional capacity; 2960 & 3560 are standalone-only ProCurve doesn’t offer any genuine Stacking, just consolidated Management 3Com products are more advanced, with real Stacking But the acquisition will ultimately force product rationalization HP ProCurve/3Com: Broad range offering typical but unspectacular functionality; 3Com is more advanced but the acquisition complicates things Stacking capacity on the 4200 is good and Layer 3 is strong across the board, however Juniper do not have any unique high-availability solution Emphasis on L3 increases costs, complexity, and makes restoration more difficult Warranty is very uncompetitive Juniper: EX 4200 is high-end & Stackable; 2200 & 3200 are Standalone; 2500 is a Top-of-Rack option 16

17 Avaya Wireless Networking Solutions
