What is the switching performance?

12.8 Gbps bandwidth, store-and-forward forwarding, <4 μs latency for 64-byte frames (100 Mbps to 100 Mbps), 4,000 MAC addresses, and 1 MB packet buffer ensure non-blocking wire-speed operation for SMB traffic loads.

How is the switch managed?

Via intuitive web-based GUI, SNMP v1/2c/3, Syslog, and firmware upgrades. Features include VLAN, QoS (802.1p/DSCP), ACL filtering, 802.1x authentication, rate limiting, IGMP snooping, and cable test for easy deployment.

What ports are available for uplinks?

4 x 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports and 2 x dual-personality SFP slots support copper or fiber connections, enabling high-speed links to backbone or extended distances up to 10,000 ft operating altitude.

What are the physical specs and reliability?

1U rackmount dimensions 440 x 257 x 43 mm, 3.57 kg weight. MTBF of 237,497 hours (~27 years), 100-240VAC input, storage humidity 95% non-condensing. LEDs for power, fan, link/activity, speed, and PoE status.

Which standards does it comply with?

IEEE 802.3/u/ab/z/x/af for Ethernet/PoE; EMC: CE EN 55022/61000/55024, FCC Part 15 Class A; Safety: UL/cUL 60950, CE EN 60950. Ensures reliable operation in enterprise environments.
