Benefits
Unique 24 GbE Copper and Fiber connectivity in 1U-height Design
Unlike competitors' offering of individual models for GbE copper and fiber connectivity, the leading
architecture employed by XGS-4528F delivers 24 1000Base-T copper interfaces along with standard
RJ-45 connectors and 24 SFP slots in a 19" 1U enclosure. This unique benefit gives network designers
the highest flexibility and cost saving in terms of equipment investment, network administration and
system maintenance.
Built-in Stacking Ports Eliminate Hidden Network Expansion Cost
With two high-performance 12G stacking ports on the back panel, over 10 units of XGS-4528F can be
easily hard-stacked in a ring architecture; this feature makes XGS-4528F highly scalable and eases the
network expansion and administration. Moreover, as the stacking ports come with every XGS-4528F
unit, customers have no need to spend extra for stacking modules and stacking cables.
True Wire-speed L3 Switching for High-Performance Networks
Each XGS-4528F provides 144 Gbps switching capacity for wire-speed performance delivered on all
GbE copper/fiber ports within the stack, as well as stacking ports and optional 10G uplinks. In
addition, advanced L3 switching, multicasting, resiliency including OSPF, DVMRP, VRRP also help
delivering optimal performance to the entire network.
