Key specifications

• 48 physical 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports for high-density connectivity
• Designed for rack installation in enterprise and data center environments
• Low-latency switching suitable for server-to-server traffic and virtualization
• Suitable for aggregation or access layer deployment with multi‑gigabit requirements

How to use

Install the switch in a standard equipment rack using appropriate mounting brackets and secure power connections according to site electrical standards. Connect 10GbE cables from servers, uplinks, or other switches to the front-panel ports. Configure basic network settings such as management IP, VLANs, link aggregation, and routing or switching policies through the switch management interface or central network management system. Monitor port status and performance to verify link integrity and traffic distribution.

Usage recommendations

Place the switch in a cooled, dust-free rack space with adequate airflow and redundant power where possible. Use compliant 10GbE cabling and transceivers to ensure link stability. Plan VLANs and link aggregation to balance traffic across multiple ports and enable consistent performance for virtualization and storage traffic.
