FAQs

Q: Are there separate uplink ports on this model?
A: No. All 24 QSFP+ ports can be used for 40G uplinks or as 4x10G breakout, depending on optics/cables.

Q: Can I run two switches as one logical device?
A: Yes. Use StackWise Virtual to pair two chassis for high availability and simplified management.

Q: Which license features are enabled with Network Advantage?
A: Advanced routing (e.g., full BGP/IS-IS, MPLS/Segment Routing), policy-based automation, and SD-Access features.

Q: Is PoE supported on any port?
A: No. This is a non-PoE, fiber-centric switching platform.

Q: What optics do I need for short- vs long-reach links?
A: Use QSFP+ SR4 for short MMF runs, LR4 for long SMF, BiDi for duplex MMF, or DAC/AOC for very short links.
