Product Features
Technical Overview
This switch delivers a maximum data transfer rate of 1.25 GB/s across its port array, supporting Ethernet technologies from Gigabit up to 10 Gigabit. The eight RJ-45 ports are auto-sensing and handle 100M/1/2.5/5/10BASE-T connections, making them compatible with existing Cat5e/Cat6 cabling while ready for higher-speed deployments. The integrated PoE++ functionality supplies up to 370 watts of power budget, enabling simultaneous support for multiple high-power devices like wireless access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones without separate power injectors.
Layer 3 routing capabilities allow for scalable network design, supporting inter-VLAN routing and more efficient traffic management compared to traditional Layer 2 switches. The dual SFP+ slots provide fiber optic or direct-attach copper uplink options for connecting to core switches or aggregating traffic over longer distances.
