Description
Bay Networks 4995 Communications Processor Board Networking Card
The Bay Networks 4995 is a communications processor board designed for use in Bay Networks routing and switching systems. This module handles packet processing, routing decisions, and inter-module communications within Bay Networks network equipment from the 1990s–2000s era. The board interfaces with the system backplane and works in conjunction with other processor and interface modules to manage network traffic and protocol operations.

Applications
Bay Networks processor boards were widely deployed in enterprise networking systems, including routing platforms, multi-service switches, and network processors used in service provider and enterprise data centers during the 1990s and early 2000s. The 4995 processor module was responsible for packet forwarding, routing table management, and inter-card communications. These systems were commonly used in core routing, edge routing, and service-provider backbone networks. Bay Networks equipment was eventually integrated into Nortel's product line following the acquisition, and many legacy systems remain in use in maintenance and repair environments.
This Bay Networks 4995 Communications Processor Board has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. It was pulled from a working networking environment and shows typical cosmetic wear consistent with age and operational use. The board is complete with all edge connectors intact.
