What are the uplink options on this switch?

The switch includes 2 fixed SFP+ ports supporting 1000/10000 Mbps for fiber or copper uplinks, enabling high-speed connections to core switches or servers. Combined with 136 Gb/s switching capacity, it handles aggregation efficiently.

What is the performance specification including latency?

Switching capacity reaches 136 Gb/s with up to 101 Mpps throughput (64-byte packets). Latency is <7.3 µs at 100 Mb, <2.7 µs at 1000 Mb, and <4.0 µs at 10 Gb/s, powered by ARM9E @800 MHz with 16K MAC table and 3 MB buffer.

What are the physical dimensions and power requirements?

Measures 44.3 x 32.26 x 4.45 cm (1U rack height), weighs 4.72 kg. Power input 100-127/200-240 V AC at 5.6/2.8 A, idle 40.2 W, max heat 1499 BTU/hr with full PoE load for reliable operation.

Is this switch suitable for enterprise branch offices?

Yes, as a fully managed Layer 2 switch with ACLs, traffic prioritization, and PoE+, it's optimized for branch/SMB access layers. Features like 48 Gigabit ports and 2x10G SFP+ uplinks support secure, scalable connectivity.

What management interfaces are available?

Includes 1 dual-personality console port (RJ-45 or USB micro-B) for CLI access, plus web GUI, SNMP support. Fully managed with IPv6, sFlow, and enhanced security for straightforward deployment and monitoring.
