The Cisco GSS 4480 is a networking product that globally load-balances distributed data centers. The Cisco GSS 4480 acts as the cornerstone of multisite disaster recovery plans in deployments of Cisco's market-leading content switches. Customers deploying new Cisco content switches such as the Cisco CSS 11500 Content Services Switch and Content Switching Module (CSM) for the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series switches or customers who have already deployed legacy switches such as the Cisco CSS 11000 and Cisco Local Directors can benefit from the new levels of traffic management and centralized command and control provided by the Cisco GSS 4480.
