Overview
The NETGEAR M4300 Switch Series delivers L2/L3/L4 and IPv4/IPv6 rich services for enterprise edge and SMB aggregation deployments with unrivaled ease of use: 10 Gigabit models can seamlessly stack with 1 Gigabit models within the series. Non-stop forwarding virtual chassis architecture provides advanced High Availability (HA) with hitless failover, that is, distributed link aggregation allows for load balancing and virtually zero downtime. License-free L3 feature set includes static routing, policy-based routing, RIP, VRRP, OSpiv as well as Multicast PIM routing. The NETGEAR M4300 Switch Series is ready for the future, with Software-defined Network (SDN) and OpenFlow 1.3 enabled for your network.¦M4300-28G comes with 24 ports 1G, 2 ports 10GBASE-T and 2 ports 10GBASE-X SFP+ in a full-width form factor. All 4 ports 10G are independent and can be used for stacking or uplinks: they are 1G backward compatible. M4300-28G is delivering resilient and secure access layer in campus LAN environments and commercial buildings. Ideal for server and storage applications: 1+1 PSU protection and front to back cooling ensure hot and cold aisle compliance.
  • The M4300-28G switch provides 24 Gigabit access ports with 2 10GBASE-T and 2 10GBASE-X SFP+ uplink connectivity
  • All (4) 10G ports are independent and 1G backward compatible for progressive transition to 10G speeds
  • With 128Gbps non-blocking fabric, M4300-28G delivers L2/L3/L4 and IPv4/IPv6 rich services for virtualization (Auto-iSCSI prioritization), wireless access layer, IP video and unified communications
  • Virtual Chassis stacking provides non-stop forwarding (NSF) and hitless failover for highest availability (HA)
  • 1 Gigabit models such as M4300-28G seamlessly stack with 10 Gigabit models enabling line-rate spine and leaf topologies
