Product Features
Technical Overview
This switch operates at Layer 3, providing routing functionality for scalable network design. It features 48 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T ports that automatically adjust to connected device speeds, plus four SFP (mini-GBIC) slots for Gigabit Ethernet uplinks via 1000Base-X fiber or copper connections. The non-shared SFP design ensures dedicated bandwidth for each uplink port.
Management capabilities include full programmability for VLANs, QoS, security policies, and traffic monitoring. The switch supports stacking through its dedicated stack port, allowing multiple units to operate as a single logical device. Power is supplied through an internal power supply with support for redundant power modules to minimize downtime in critical deployments.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, 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 medium to large office networks, educational campuses, and retail environments requiring reliable wired connectivity. Its 48-port configuration supports high-density workstation deployments, while the Layer 3 capabilities enable segmentation for departments or security zones. The SFP uplinks connect effectively to network cores or between buildings.
In data center edge deployments, the switch provides access layer connectivity with advanced features like QoS for voice and video traffic. The rack-mountable 1U form factor integrates smoothly into standard server cabinets, and stacking support makes it suitable for distributed networks with centralized management requirements.
Office Network Core
Serve as the primary switch for workstations, printers, and IP phones with VLAN segmentation for different departments.
Campus Distribution
Connect multiple floors or buildings using fiber uplinks while providing local switching for each area.
Physical Profile
The switch measures 1.73 inches in height, 17.50 inches in width, and 11.30 inches in depth, fitting standard 1U rack spaces. Its weight of approximately 9.59 pounds ensures stable mounting without excessive load on rack rails. The compact design optimizes rack space utilization while providing adequate ventilation for continuous operation.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.73" (43.94 mm), 17.50" (444.50 mm), 11.30" (287.02 mm), 9.59 lb (4349.95 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

FAQ
How many devices can connect directly to this switch?
The switch provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports for direct device connections, supporting workstations, printers, IP phones, and other network equipment. Additionally, four SFP uplink slots allow connection to other switches or network cores, expanding total capacity beyond the base port count.
Does this switch support fiber optic connections?
Yes, through its four SFP (mini-GBIC) slots, the switch supports fiber optic connections using 1000Base-X transceivers. These slots are dedicated and non-shared, ensuring full bandwidth availability for uplinks to other network segments or long-distance runs.
What does Layer 3 switching capability provide?
Layer 3 switching enables routing functionality between different network segments or VLANs without requiring a separate router. This allows for scalable network design, improved traffic management, and enhanced security through inter-VLAN routing policies directly on the switch.
Can multiple units of this switch be managed as one?
Yes, the switch includes a stack port that allows multiple units to be connected and managed as a single logical device. This simplifies configuration, reduces management overhead, and enables linear performance scaling as network needs grow.
Is this switch suitable for rack mounting?
Absolutely. The switch is designed for standard 1U rack mounting with dimensions of 1.73" H x 17.50" W x 11.30" D. It includes appropriate mounting hardware and ventilation for stable operation in server racks or network cabinets.
What power redundancy features are available?
The switch supports redundant power supplies through optional external power modules. This feature ensures continuous operation if one power source fails, minimizing downtime in critical network environments. The internal power supply provides baseline operation with redundancy capability.
