What is the stacking capability of this switch?

Features 4 x 40 GbE QSFP stacking ports providing 160 Gbps dedicated backplane bandwidth. Units stack into a single logical switch for simplified management, hitless failover, and scalable port density up to hundreds of ports.

What are the uplink options?

Provides 8 x 1 GbE SFP uplink ports upgradable to 10 GbE via transceivers. These connect to aggregation or core layers, supporting fiber/copper for flexible 1-10G speeds in enterprise topologies.

What is the switching performance?

Offers 576 Gbps switching capacity and 432 Mpps forwarding rate with wire-speed non-blocking dual packet processors. Handles latency-sensitive traffic like voice/video/VDI across all ports without congestion.

Does it support redundant power and cooling?

Yes, includes dual hot-swappable 1000W PSUs with load-sharing and hot-swappable fan trays. Power-supply-side intake airflow ensures efficient cooling in 1U racks, minimizing downtime risks.

What management features are included?

Premium software with RJ-45 management port supports L3 IPv4 static routing, ACLs (L2/L3/L4), ECMP, and stacking. Base image enables enterprise-grade features for secure, scalable network operations.
