Getting to Know Your Switch

1.1 Introduction

This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the Switch.
The XMG1930 Series consists of the following models:
• XMG1930-30
• XMG1930-30HP
References to PoE model in this User's Guide only apply to XMG1930-30HP.
All models are referred to as the "Switch" in this guide.
The Switch is a smart managed switch supporting Multi-Gigabit ports. The Switch provides SFP+ slots for
uplink. By integrating static route functions, the Switch performs wire-speed layer-3 routing in addition to
layer-2 switching.
The Switch supports NebulaFlex for hybrid mode which can set the Switch to operate in either
standalone or Nebula cloud management mode. When the Switch is in standalone mode, it can be
configured and managed by the Web Configurator. When the Switch is in Nebula cloud management
mode, it can be managed and provisioned by the Zyxel Nebula Control Center (NCC).
The following table describes the hardware features of the Switch by model.

1.1.1 Multi-Gigabit

A 10 Gigabit port supports speeds of 10G if the connected device supports 10G and a Cat 6a (up to 100
m) or Cat 6 cable (up to 50 m) is used. The speed drops to 1G if these criteria are not met; it drops to
100M if a Cat 5 cable is used (up to 100 m).
