Does it support VLANs and routing?

Yes, it supports 256 VLANs including Voice VLAN, Spanning Tree Protocol, and 32 static routes. Compliance with IEEE 802.1Q, 802.1s/w enables traffic segmentation and L3 routing, ideal for segmented networks without dedicated routers.

What is the MAC address table size?

The switch has a 16,000-entry MAC address table with 16 MB packet buffer memory. This capacity handles large broadcast domains efficiently, paired with broadcast storm control and rate limiting to maintain performance under heavy loads.

Is PoE supported on this model?

No, Power over Ethernet (PoE) is not supported; total PoE budget is N/A. It focuses on non-PoE high-speed switching with typical power consumption of 748.18 W, suitable for data-centric environments without powered devices.

What are the physical dimensions and mounting options?

Dimensions are 440 mm width, 257 mm depth, 43.2 mm height, weighing 3.8 kg. It is rack-mountable and stackable, with black color and 26.8 dB noise level, fitting standard 1U racks for dense deployments.

What is the reliability rating?

Mean time between failures (MTBF) is 1,252,990 hours. Operating temperature 0-50°C, humidity 0-95%, altitude up to 3000 m ensure robust performance in office or data center conditions with low failure risk.
