I have stratix 8000 switches in a couple lines already but now i see that there is a model 8300. I do not seem to see what the difference is between the two from the user and installation manual. Anyone know the main difference?
The Stratix 8300 is a full-featured layer 3 switch which is designed for the industrial environment. The only difference between a Stratix 8000 and a Stratix 8300 is the routing capability in the Stratix 8300. All Stratix 8000 accessories (expansion modules, SFP's and compact flash card) are fully compatible with the Stratix 8300.
