24-port 10 Gigabit Stackable L2+ Managed Switch XSM7224S
- 5 -
Features Benefits
Single IP address management • Stack up to 4 switches as a single “chassis” logical unit
• One GUI and one CLI managing the whole stack
• The stack acts as a single switch in the network
• The other switches in the network also see the stack as a single switch
• Growth is easy, adding a switch to the stack is as simple as connecting the new unit to the stack (confi guration
is instantly updated)
Bi-directional architecture
4 ports per switch
80 Gigabit local stacking capacity
80 Gigabit distant stacking capacity
• Higher stacking throughput capacity with lower latency and jitter for VoIP and video traffi c
• Each switch in the stack understands the shortest path to forward traffi c, bi-directionally both up and down
• Vertical/local stacking and horizontal/distant stacking can be mixed for convenient 10 Gigabit deployments
(core, distribution layer, top-of-rack)
Stack fast resiliency
Automatic unit replacement (AUR)
• Dual-ring architecture ensures that if a switch fails within the stack all the other switches can still communicate
with one another
• If the stack master fails, the secondary stack master takes over in less than 2 seconds for minimum packet loss
• Adding a new switch to the stack or replacing a failed unit requires no service interruption, the confi guration
fi le is automatically pushed by the stack
Distributed LACP across the stack • Increased performance with distributed trunks
• Greater redundancy as several switches within the trunk (up to 8 ports per trunk – 64 trunks are allowed)
• Server-to-switch distributed redundant trunking across the stack for active-active server teaming connections
Many-to-one port mirroring across the stack • More fl exibility for device troubleshooting
• As for a chassis, port mirroring is available from every port to every port across the stack
VLANs automatic propagation across the stack
• As for a chassis, VLAN port tagging or private groups are available everywhere across the stack as for a dingle
switch (unit 1, port 2; unit 2, port 3, etc.)
• No confi guration required for the VLAN propagation between the switches
