Connectivity and compatibility

This switch offers extensive connectivity options with 48 SFP+ ports for 10 GbE connections to servers, storage, and edge switches, alongside 6 QSFP+ ports that provide 100 GbE uplinks or stacking links. The stacking capability allows multiple units to operate as a single virtual chassis, simplifying management and increasing throughput. OpenFlow 1.3 support ensures compatibility with modern SDN controllers, while the optional routing license expands protocol support for evolving network architectures.

Performance and reliability

Designed to handle heavy network loads, the switch delivers line-rate performance with a high forwarding rate and large switching capacity. Its modular components, including hot-swappable power supplies and fan trays, ensure continuous uptime and easy maintenance without disrupting network operations. The energy-efficient design keeps power consumption moderate even under full load, making it suitable for environments where reliability and cost control are priorities.

Ideal uses and environments

This switch fits well in growing data centers, campus backbones, and enterprise core networks that require scalable 10 GbE access today and a straightforward upgrade path to 100 GbE speeds. It is a strong choice for organizations needing resilient, high-throughput aggregation or core routing solutions that can adapt as network demands increase. Its compact size and modular design also make it practical for space-conscious installations.

Some items are not returnable: opened TVs/combos/monitors 37″+, opened computers or software, electronic downloads, opened consumables (film, paper, bulbs, media, ink), custom or modified computers, special-order or “nonreturnable” items, submerged underwater gear, and opened educational media.

After inspection, refunds are issued to the original payment method; allow 5–7 business days for the credit to post. Shipping, handling, customs duties, and import taxes are nonrefundable. If an item is used, incomplete, or not in original condition, a 30% restocking fee may apply. Direct exchanges are not offered; purchase the replacement and return the original for a refund.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
