Features and Benefits
Connectivity
• 24 or 48 10/100/1000 Mbps ports for easy Gigabit Ethernet integration and for
protection of your investment in legacy LAN equipment.
• Auto-negotiation enables each RJ-45 port to automatically select the optimum
communication mode (half or full duplex) if this feature is supported by the
attached device; otherwise the port can be configured manually.
• RJ-45 10/100/1000BASE-T ports support auto MDI/MDI-X pinout selection.
• Unshielded (UTP) cable supported on all RJ-45 ports: Category 3 or better for
10 Mbps connections, Category 5 or better for 100 Mbps connections, and
Category Category 5, 5e, 6 or better for 1000 Mbps connections.
• IEEE 802.3-2005 Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and IEEE 802.3ae
10 Gigabit Ethernet compliance ensures compatibility with standards-based hubs,
network cards and switches from any vendor.
• Provides stacking capability via high-speed serial ports with 48 Gbps stacking
bandwidth. Up to 8 units can be stacked together.
