Product Features
Technical Overview
This switch operates at Gigabit Ethernet speeds across all 24 RJ-45 ports, supporting 10/100/1000Base-T and 1000Base-X network technologies. The four SFP expansion slots enable fiber connectivity for longer-distance runs or higher-bandwidth uplinks, enhancing network design flexibility. Layer 3 support allows for advanced routing functions, making the switch suitable for segmenting networks and managing traffic between subnets.
Power efficiency is maintained with a 59 W typical consumption, compatible with 120 V AC and 230 V AC input voltages. The switch adheres to key IEEE standards including 802.3 for Ethernet, 802.3az for Energy Efficient Ethernet, 802.3ad for link aggregation, and multiple 802.1 standards for bridging, spanning tree, priority, and security.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Network Ports, Network (RJ-45), Modular, Media Type Supported. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.

Deployment / Use Cases
This switch is ideal for small to medium-sized business networks, branch offices, or departmental deployments where reliable, managed switching with growth potential is required. Its 1U rack-mountable design fits standard server racks, making it suitable for data closets, server rooms, or network cabinets.
Common use cases include serving as an access layer switch for connecting end-user devices, acting as a distribution switch with Layer 3 routing between VLANs, or providing uplink aggregation to core network infrastructure. The SFP slots support fiber connections for linking to other switches across buildings or floors, extending network reach without signal degradation.
Office Network Backbone
Deploy as the primary switch in an office, connecting workstations, printers, and wireless access points while using SFP uplinks to connect to a central router or firewall.
Rack-Optimized Data Center
Install in a 1U rack space within a server room or data closet, organizing cables and providing high-density ports for server connections and network segmentation.
Physical Profile
The switch features a gray enclosure with dimensions of 1.72" height, 17.42" width, and 11.20" depth, weighing approximately 8.31 lb. Its 1U height maximizes rack space efficiency, and the design supports rack-mounting, surface mounting, or cabinet mounting for versatile installation. The compact footprint and standard rack compatibility ensure easy integration into existing network infrastructure.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.72" (43.70 mm), 17.42" (442.50 mm), 11.20" (284.50 mm), 8.31 lb (3770 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
