HP 6604 Router Chassis firewall appliance

SKU CH-12BF-WJ0EP MPN 6604

A rack-mountable router chassis designed for service convergence with distributed processing and modular High-speed Interface Modules

  • Multi-core processing boosts service capacity
  • Distributed architecture isolates routing and services for higher reliability
  • Modular design supports flexible interface and module configurations
  • Embedded hardware encryption secures data without extra modules
  • Carrier-class reliability across network, device, link and service layers

HP 6600 series router chassis

The HP 6604 is a rack-mountable router chassis built on the multi-core HP 6600 platform. It uses a distributed processing architecture with isolated routing and service engines to handle NAT, QoS, IPsec and NetStream without dedicated service modules. The design supports High-speed Interface Modules, Multi-function Interface Modules and OAA-enabled modules for flexible deployment. Carrier-class reliability is provided across network, device, link and service layers.

Rack-mount environments needing modular service

This chassis suits data centres and large enterprise networks that require a modular platform for converged services and hardware encryption. The 83.77 lb weight and rack form factor demand sturdy cabinet space and appropriate lifting equipment during installation. Buyers who need a compact desktop appliance or a fixed-configuration branch router should consider other form factors.

Multi-core distributed processing architecture

The defining specification is the multi-core distributed processing architecture that separates control, routing and service planes. This design allows different software engines to process security, QoS and monitoring functions simultaneously without additional hardware modules. It determines the chassis capacity for service convergence and the ability to add interfaces through HIM, MIM and OAA slots.

Highlights

  • Multi-core processing boosts service capacity
  • Distributed architecture isolates routing and services for higher reliability
  • Modular design supports flexible interface and module configurations
  • Embedded hardware encryption secures data without extra modules
  • Carrier-class reliability across network, device, link and service layers

Questions about this item

Will the 6604 chassis accept the same High-speed Interface Modules I already use with other 6600 series routers?

The 6604 is part of the 6600 series which supports High-speed Interface Modules (HIMs), Multi-function Interface Modules (MIMs) and OAA-enabled modules for flexible deployment.

What front-panel indicators confirm the 6604 is operating normally after rack installation?

Isolated control and service panels provide visual status for routing, service engines, link state and system health so you can verify continual services at a glance.

Does the 6604 Router Chassis ship with any interface modules or must they be ordered separately?

The chassis is a modular platform; High-speed Interface Modules, Multi-function Interface Modules and OAA-enabled modules are selected and purchased separately to match your network design.
