THE DEMAND
The increased use of the Internet and the wide use of new high quality,
bandwidth-intensive services such as VoIP and high quality video streaming have created a serious capacity problem for core and access network
infrastructures.
In order to deliver these types of services, networks need to be able to support high bandwidth, low-delay and low-jitter (delay variation) transmission. This means core networks should support service separation and service prioritization in order to transfer different kinds of traffic with different
behavior aggregates. Such solutions are provided by a Multiprotocol Label
Switching (MPLS) mechanism and Differential Services protocols which are
used for traffic engineering and EE QoS provisioning in the core networks.
In 2012 Sala Razzmatazz in Barcelona, one of Spain’s leading music venues,
needed to find switches that would be able to meet these requirements. to
better serve staff and customers.
THE SOLUTION
After carefully surveying the options for this project, Razzmatazz selected
switches from SMC Networks that would be able to provide triple play services interconnected by trunks with LACP. The SMC8050L2 gigabit access
switch is designed to support Gigabit Ethernet switching for bandwidthintensive networks that require advanced switching features.
The SMC8150L2, SMC Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet managed switches segment
the infrastructure into different subnets isolated from each other. In addition, trunks between switches eliminate the danger of bandwidth bottlenecks and provide link redundancy. Further, QoS improves the network
performance by prioritizing delay-sensitive applications such as VoIP. This
Layer 2 switch was chosen because it is ideal for gigabit to the desktop
10/100/1000 connectivity. More than 300 users benefitted from the installation.

Case Study
Razzmatazz Project in Barcelona
The Result
Sala Razzmatazz in Barcelona has successfully deployed SMC Networks
SMC 8150L2 TigerSwitchTM , allowing customers and staff to enjoy Gigabit
Ethernet services. The installation took place over a period of one month
in 2012, with the network running at 100% within the expected time
with the support of SMC Networks application engineers. The solution is
now installed at Razzamatazz providing network services throughout the
complex, including offices and dressing rooms.
Razzmatazz is a venue in Barcelona with more than 3700m2 divided into
five separate spaces. There are five halls with different dimensions and
capacities equipped with stages, professional sound booths, DJ booths,
light/fixtures, and audiovisual systems. Each hall has its own service
rooms, wardrobe areas, and bars, (www.salarazzmatazz.com).
The SMC8150L2 TigerSwitchTM
The SMC8150L2 is a 10/100/1000BASE-T L2 managed switch, with 4 Gigabit combo
(RJ-45/SFP) ports, featuring:
-17.6 Gbps switching capacity
- Flexible Quality of Service (QoS) and VLANs make switch ideal for triple play services
- Enhanced scalability and availability features
- IP clustering allows up to 32 units to be managed form a single IP address
- High performance network security and management capabilities
- Robust QoS with 4 levels of priority with flexible classification and priority rules
- True Gigabit to the desktop for voice, video, and VoIP
* Please note SMC Network’s SMC8150L2 is currently in the process of being replaced by the equivalent
Edge-Core Networks switch, ECS4510-52T. Features, functions, and performance are enhanced on the new
Edge-Core switch.
