Hardware Main Features

Benefits

24-port 10Gigabit SFP+
Compatible with 1000 speeds

• 10 Gigabit wire-speed performance for aggregation applications

• Ultra low latency for top-of-rack applications

• Connect any Gigabit Ethernet (1000BaseT, 1000SX/LX) or 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBaseX) equipment

with an array of SFP modules

4 shared 10GBaseT RJ45 interfaces

• 100/1000/10GBaseT auto-sensing flexibility

• 10 Gigabit up to 100 m with Category 6A or better cables

• Legacy Category 6 cables allow up to 50 m 10GBaseT distances (30 m worst-case crosstalk within a

cable bundle)

Physical stacking up to 4 switches

• Chassis-like unique GUI /CLI

• Dual-ring resilient topology with 4 ports per switch

• Any of the 24 ports are stack-capable for added flexibility

• High speed 10 x 8 = 80 GE overall stacking performance

• Single IP address management

• Hot-swappable, automatic unit replacement

• Server-to-switch distributed redundant trunking across the stack for active-active Server teaming connections

• Any-to-one port mirroring
