Netgear XSM4316S-100NES M4300 16x 10G Stackable Switch
Overview
The Netgear XSM4316S-100NES is a high-performance Layer 3 managed switch within the acclaimed M4300 series, engineered to provide flexible 10 Gigabit connectivity for demanding network environments. It is specifically designed to address the bandwidth requirements of enterprise edge and small to medium-sized business (SMB) aggregation deployments, delivering robust and scalable networking solutions.
This switch features a versatile port configuration with eight 10GBASE-T (RJ45) and eight 10G SFP+ ports, offering adaptable connectivity options for various media types and distances. With a non-blocking switching bandwidth of 320 Gbps and a forwarding rate of 238 Mpps, the M4300-8X8F ensures high-throughput performance critical for applications such as AV-over-IP, server, and storage aggregation.
Its comprehensive Layer 3 routing capabilities, including static routing, RIP, and OSPF, further enhance network control and segmentation. Designed for efficient deployment, this half-width, rack-mountable unit allows for two switches to be installed side-by-side in a single rack space, enabling space-optimized, redundant Top-of-Rack solutions. The M4300 series supports advanced mix-and-match stacking with other 1G, 10G, or 40G models, facilitating simplified management and high availability through virtual chassis architectures with hitless failover. Management is intuitive, supported by a full-featured web graphical user interface (GUI) and command-line interface (CLI).
