Additionally, a 24-port model provides 100Base-FX/1000Base-X SFP ports. This model is typically used as a small distribution switch. All EX4200 switches have dedicated 64-Gbps Virtual Chassis ports (VCPs) that enable you to connect the switches to each other. You can also use optional uplink module ports to connect members of a Virtual Chassis across multiple wiring closets.
Understanding PoE on EX Series Switches EX4200 Switch Models The EX4200 switch is available with 24 or 48 ports and with partial or full Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability. EX4200 switches with a DC power supply installed do not provide PoE.
