FAQ
How many devices can this switch power with PoE?
The switch provides a total PoE budget of 370W, which can power multiple IEEE 802.3bt (Class 4) devices simultaneously. The exact number depends on the power requirements of each connected device, but it is designed to support high-power endpoints like 802.11ax wireless access points, pan-tilt-zoom cameras, and thin clients without needing external power injectors.
What types of uplink connections are supported?
This switch includes four SFP+ uplink ports that support 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. These ports are compatible with both optical fiber (10GBase-X) and copper (10/100/1000Base-T) SFP+ transceivers, allowing flexible uplink options to core switches, servers, or network storage based on distance and cabling infrastructure.
Is this switch manageable, and what features does it offer?
Yes, this is a fully manageable Layer 3 switch. It supports advanced features such as VLANs (IEEE 802.1Q), link aggregation (IEEE 802.3ad), Quality of Service (QoS), Access Control Lists (ACLs), and network security protocols like 802.1x. Management can be performed via command-line interface (CLI), web interface, or SNMP-based network management systems for comprehensive control and monitoring.
What rack size does this switch fit?
The switch is designed for 1U rack mounting, meaning it occupies one unit of vertical space in a standard 19-inch server rack. Its dimensions are 1.72" (43.70 mm) in height, 17.42" (442.50 mm) in width, and 11.98" (304.30 mm) in depth, ensuring compatibility with common rack enclosures and cabinets.
Does this switch support fiber optic connections?
Yes, the switch supports fiber optic connections through its four SFP+ uplink ports. These ports accept SFP+ transceivers for 10GbE fiber optic cables (10GBase-X), enabling long-distance connections up to kilometers depending on the transceiver and fiber type. The switch also supports twisted pair copper cables for its 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports.
What is the power consumption of this switch?
The switch has a typical power consumption of 60W under normal operating conditions. It accepts input voltages of 120V AC or 230V AC, providing flexibility for different electrical setups. The internal power supply ensures stable operation, and the 370W PoE budget is allocated separately to power connected devices without affecting the switch's base consumption.
