Overview

SMC's TigerStack II 10/100/1000 SMC8824M and SMC8848M are
intelligent multilayer switches (Layer 2, 3) with 24/48 10/100/
1000BASE-T ports, four of which are combination ports
with four SFP transceiver slots (see Figure 1-1, Ports 21-24/45-48). The
rear panel provides two slots for single-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet
hot-swappable expansion modules, and two stacking ports. Units can be
stacked up to eight high through the built-in stacking ports that provide a
48 Gbps stack backplane.
The switches include an SNMP-based management agent embedded on
the main board, which supports both in-band and out-of-band access for
managing the stack.
These switches can easily enhance your network with full support for
Spanning Tree Protocol, Multicast Switching, Virtual LANs, and IP
routing. It brings order to poorly performing networks by segregating
them into separate broadcast domains with IEEE 802.1Q compliant
VLANs, empowers multimedia applications with multicast switching and
CoS services, and eliminates conventional router bottlenecks.
* If an SFP transceiver is plugged in, the corresponding RJ-45 port is disabled for ports 21-24 on
SMC8824M or ports 45-48 on SMC8848M.
