Deployment / Use Cases
Ideal for enterprise office networks, campus environments, and small to medium data centers where a mix of Gigabit access and high-speed uplinks is required. The 1U rack-mountable design fits standard server racks, making it suitable for centralized network closets or data center rows.
Use cases include aggregating multiple Gigabit devices like computers, IP phones, and wireless access points, while using the SFP56 uplinks to connect to core switches or servers. The stacking capability allows multiple units to be managed as a single logical switch, simplifying expansion.
Enterprise Access Layer
Deploy as an access switch for end-user devices, providing Gigabit connectivity and leveraging Layer 3 features for VLAN routing and security.
Distribution or Small Core
Use in distribution layers with high-speed uplinks to aggregate traffic from multiple access switches, supported by advanced routing protocols.
Physical Profile
The switch has a compact 1U rack-mountable form factor, measuring 1.73 inches (44 mm) in height, 17.40 inches (442 mm) in width, and 15.16 inches (385 mm) in depth. It weighs approximately 11.97 pounds (5430 grams), making it easy to install in standard server racks. The design includes a 2-post rack kit for secure mounting.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.73" (44 mm), 17.40" (442 mm), 15.16" (385 mm), 11.97 lb (5430 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
