Features - NETGEAR M4250-10G2XF-PoE++ Hardware Installation Manual

• Special models:
- M4250-12M2XF: LED tiles model with 2.5 Gbps ports. Twelve 2.5GBASE-T RJ-45
ports and two 10G SFP+ fiber uplink ports.
- M4250-16XF: Aggregation model with multiple 10G SFP+ fiber ports. Sixteen
1G/10G SFP+ fiber ports.
The switch lets you create high-speed connections to a server or network backbone.
For example, you can do the following:
• Connect switches to each other with high-speed links
• Link to high-speed servers
• Provide 10M/100M/1G/2.5G copper and 1G/10G fiber connectivity
You would typically rack-mount the switch in a wiring closet or equipment room as a
standalone switch. The switch is IEEE compliant and offers low latency for high-speed
networking. All ports can automatically negotiate to the highest speed, which makes
the switch also suitable for AV environments with a mix of 1 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps Ethernet
devices and 1G and 10G fiber connections. With the exception of the ports on model
M4250-12M2X, the copper ports that support 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps ports can operate
in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. For 1 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps connections, the copper
ports always operate in full-duplex mode.

Features

The switch supports the following key hardware features:
• PoE+ and PoE++ models with switch ports in various configurations depending on
the model:
- 8, 24, or 40 PoE+ or PoE++ ports, depending on the model
- Up to four 1GBASE-T RJ-45 ports (also supporting 10M and 100M speeds),
depending on the model
- Up to eight 1G SFP or 10G SFP+ fiber uplink ports, depending of the model
-
PoE budget from 125W to 2880W, depending on the model
• LED tiles model with twelve 2.5GBASE-T RJ-45 ports (also supporting 1G and 100M
speeds) and two 10G SFP+ fiber ports
• Aggregation model with sixteen 1G/10G SFP+ fiber ports
• Support for switching fabric up to 320 Gbps, depending on the model, with all ports
at line-rate.
