• 24 and 48 Gigabit models, and one 24 Gigabit SFP fiber model
• Because RIP, OSPF, VRRP or PIM aren't always needed, M5300 series comes with port-based / VLAN-based / subnet-based "static routing" only Layer 2+ versions
• You can save costs now and should new applications arise, there's seamless upgrade path with Layer 3 licenses
• 4 or 24 uplink fiber (SFP) ports for Fast Ethernet or Gigabit optics
• Two embedded 10 Gigabit interfaces streamline network uplinks with SFP+ and 10GBase-T (RJ45) combo ports
• Two supplemental 10 Gigabit I/O bays for additional uplinks or local / remote stacking, provide versatile 10 Gigabit deployment capabilities
• Uplink capacity per switch is 4-port 10 Gigabit total, mixing 10GBase-T (RJ45), 10GBase-X (SFP+), 10GBase-CX4 (802.3ak) and 48 Gbps stacking ports
