QSW-M408S

Entry-level 10GbE Layer 2 Web Managed Switch for SMB Network Deployment

Flexible deployment with multiple 10G SFP+ fiber and Gigabit ports

The QSW-M408S provides four 10GbE SFP+ ports and eight Gigabit ports for connecting various devices and enabling hybrid high-speed networks. With SFP+ interfaces, direct attach copper (DAC) cables can be used for connecting directly to SFP+ devices. You can also use 10G-SFP-T copper transceiver modules to connect 10GBASE-T/NBASE-T™ devices through RJ45 Category 6, 5 or 5e cabling. The switching capacity of QSW-M408S is 96Gbps, guaranteeing the full potential of each port.

Note: The 10GbE SFP+ ports are backward compatible with 1GbE SFP.
