Description

A managed network with 24 ports and SFP uplinks

Twenty-four gigabit ports let one device connect the workstations, printers and access points of a whole office floor. The four SFP ports take optical or other SFP modules for links to other switches, a server rack or a neighbouring building. L2 management lets you split the network into VLANs, and if the web interface is out of reach, you can still connect through the console port or Micro-USB.

Who this network switch is for

Offices with a couple of dozen workstations where the network needs splitting by department or a separate guest network; IT admins who want a rackmount managed switch with a console port; and companies whose network spans several rooms or buildings and needs SFP links.
