Control Room and Marshaling Aggregation

Control-room MDFs aggregate unit rings and terminals on 24-port/hybrid rack switches.

1. Scenario

Control rooms are the aggregation and O&M hub—dense ports and clean core uplinks.

2. Challenges

Many systems co-located; messy patching; hard to expand live.

3. Architecture

Marshaling/control 24GE or 26GH; unit 8GE access; uplink to plant L3 core.

  • LGS2000-24GE4GF-M: Managed rack aggregation: 24×GE copper + 4×GE SFP for station/central-room aggregation.
  • LGS2000-26GH-M: Managed hybrid-port aggregation (fiber/copper/Combo) for mixed cabling and expansion.
  • LGS2000-8GE2GF-M: Managed Gigabit industrial switch: 8×GE copper + 2×GE SFP; VLAN/QoS/ring redundancy for intersection and shop-floor aggregation.

5. Deployment notes

Patch/port inventory; no ad-hoc NAT on aggregation; rehearse maintenance bypass.
