Product Features
Technical Overview
This switch operates at Layer 2, providing essential switching functions with advanced management capabilities. It supports 10/100/1000Base-T over twisted pair cabling and 10GBase-X via the two SFP+ expansion slots, allowing for high-speed uplinks to core network infrastructure or long-distance fiber connections.
The 12 RJ-45 ports deliver Gigabit Ethernet speeds with PoE+ (802.3at) support, distributing up to 139W total across connected devices. Each port auto-negotiates speed and duplex settings, while the manageable interface offers VLAN configuration, QoS prioritization, and security features like port-based access control.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, Modular, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment. Buyers often need this context to confirm compatibility with existing devices, expected performance in daily use, and whether installation will be straightforward for IT staff or end users.
