N/A
* Includes eight 10/100/1000 copper ports and 16 SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) slots for adding the fiber SFP modules of your choice.
* Supports all IEEE 802.3/u/x/z Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet specifications. Great for mixed-speed environments!
* Strongly suits workgroups, office LANs, and larger metropolitan networks carrying higher-priority traffic for powerful applications.
* Bundle multiple ports to create a single high-bandwidth port using 802.3ad Link Aggregate Control Protocol (LACP) aggregation.
* Programmable higher layer classification and prioritization for reliable QoS (Quality of Service).
* Ideal for use in VoIP real-time applications where info moves from Layer 2 to Layer 4.
* Manage and configure via an RS-232 serial connection or Web-based tools via an Ethernet connection.
* Robust security with VLAN capabilities, as well as port security, IGMP snooping, and illegal access reporting.
* Enhanced network management capabilities. Supports SNMP and RMON management.
* Spanning Tree (802.1w) algorithms prevent network switching loops.
* RoHS compliant.
Establish economical twisted-pair Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet connections to devices on fiber segments of your network with the 24-port BLACK BOX(r) Layer 2 Managed Ethernet Switch.
Supporting a number of IEEE specifications, the L2 Managed Ethernet Switch with (8)1000BASE-TX Copper and (16) SFP ports enables you to integrate applications of varying speeds. The switch is ideal for connecting desktop machines to a workgroup, and linking copper segments to a fiber Gigabit Ethernet backbone.
All you have to do is order the SFP modules that best suit your application, such as the BLACK BOX(r) 850-nm Multimode Gigabit SFP Module (LGB200C-MLC) and 1310-nm Single-mode Gigabit SFP Module (LGB200C-SLC10). (NOTE: For information on SFP module compatibility, including other modules from Black Box, contact our FREE Tech Support.)
To provide more bandwidth to a specific application or segment, just combine ports using the switch's 802.3ad Link Aggregate Control Protocol
(LACP) capabilities. With this bandwidth aggregation feature, the combined Gigabit ports create a multilink trunk for load sharing-which is particularly beneficial in switch-to-switch cascading applications that require high full-duplex speeds. Up to 12 Gigabit ports, in fact, can be set up per trunk for bandwidth up to 24 Gbps on the switch. In addition to link capacity, you can also create higher availability. All traffic is aggregated based on MAC addresses, so traffic loads are balanced effectively. The switch supports a maximum of eight trunking groups.
And along with Layer 2 802.1p Priority Queue control, the switch offers a much higher level of Quality of Service (QoS) support, so you can program a higher layer classification and prioritization for traffic in real-time applications. As information goes from Layer 2 to Layer 4, you can ensure reliable voice and data for your important VoIP applications.
You can also restrict traffic using the switch's broadcast/multicast storm suppression, which limits broadcast/multicast flooding on your network. You control the rate limit for each of the switch's ports, setting threshold values that dictate at what count packets are to be discarded. Even better, with jumbo frame support, the L2 Managed Ethernet Switch can be set up to forward packets up to 9K in size before discarding them, so you're able to ensure reliable data transmission.
For enhanced security and performance, isolate traffic between different users using the switch's Q-in-Q VLAN feature. With VLAN support for advanced 802.1Q (in the .1Q VLAN protocol), the switch enables you to limit broadcast traffic to within the same VLAN broadcast domain.
