High-Performance, Cost-effective Gigabit solution for backbone of SMB
The IFS NS3502-8P-2S is the Layer 2 Managed Gigabit Switch which can handle extremely large
amounts of data in a secure topology linking to an Enterprise backbone or high capacity network
server with 20Gbps switching fabric. The powerful features of QoS and network security make
NS3502-8P-2S to offer effective data traffic control for ISPs and Enterprises, such as VoIP, video
streaming and multicast applications. It is ideal for the core layer of campus, enterprise networks
and the aggregation layer of IP metropolitan networks.
High Performance
The NS3502-8P-2S provides 8 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports + 2 100/1000X SFP slots.
It boasts high performance architecture of switch that is capable for providing the non-blocking
switch fabric and wire-speed throughput as high as 20Gbps, which greatly simplifies the tasks of
upgrading the LAN for catering to increasing bandwidth demands.
Robust Layer 2 Features
The NS3502-8P-2S can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as
dynamic Port link aggregation, Q-in-Q VLAN, private VLAN, Rapid Spanning Tree protocol, Layer 2
to Layer 4 QoS, bandwidth control and IGMP / MLD Snooping. The NS3502-8P-2S provides 802.1Q
Tagged VLAN, and the VLAN groups allowed will be maximally up to 255. Via aggregation of
supporting ports, the NS3502-8P-2S allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining
multiple ports. It enables maximum up to 5 groups of 10 ports for trunking, and supports fail-over
as well.
Excellent Traffic Control
