🛠️ Ports & Hardware
24 × Gigabit RJ45 Ports: 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet for end devices like computers, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points.
4 × 10G SFP+ Uplink Ports: High-speed fiber or DAC connections to backbone switches or servers.
PoE+ Support: Supplies power to connected PoE devices via Ethernet — compliant with IEEE 802.3af/at (up to ~30 W per port, total PoE budget ~370 W).
Rack-Mount Design & Active Cooling: 1U metal chassis with smart fans for stable operation in network racks.
📶 Layer-3 Networking Features
This switch isn’t just a basic Layer-2 switch — it also provides Layer-3 routing capabilities, enabling more intelligent traffic handling on the network:
🔹 Routing & Protocols
Static Routing for simple routes between VLANs and subnets.
Dynamic Routing: Support for RIP and OSPF (v2/v3) for scalable inter-VLAN and multi-site routing.
IPv4 & IPv6 Dual-Stack Support for modern network deployments.
Policy-Based Routing (PBR) and Virtual Routing & Forwarding (VRF) options for advanced traffic segmentation.
🧠 Advanced Switching & Security
VLANs & Traffic Segmentation: 802.1Q VLANs, voice VLANs, and advanced VLAN types help isolate traffic.
ACLs & QoS: Support for detailed access control lists and quality-of-service traffic prioritization for VoIP, streaming, or critical data.
STP / RSTP / MSTP: Loop-prevention and redundancy protocols to maintain uptime.
Multicast Support: IGMP and MLD snooping for efficient IP multicast video or streaming.
Security Features: 802.1X authentication, IP-MAC-Port binding, DHCP snooping, ARP inspection, and DoS protection for network robustness.
☁️ Management & Deployment
The switch supports multiple management methods to simplify network setup and monitoring:
📍 Management Options
Ruijie Cloud / Zero-Touch Provisioning: Remote configuration, monitoring, and firmware updates — ideal for distributed sites.
Web GUI & CLI: Local management via browser interface or command-line interface for deeper control.
SNMP: Standard network management support.
Zero-Touch Onboarding (SON): Doesn’t require onsite configuration — just connect and configure remotely.
🌐 Use Cases
This switch is well suited for medium to large networks where performance, flexibility, and power delivery matter:
Enterprise networks with VLAN segmentation and inter-VLAN routing requirements.
Campus or office LANs with IP phones, surveillance cameras, and wireless APs needing PoE+ power.
Retail or hospitality networks where remote management via cloud is beneficial.
High-bandwidth environments that require 10G uplinks and advanced multicast or routing.
