FAQs

Q: How do I expand from 8 to 24 active ports?
A: Purchase and apply on-demand port activation licenses to enable additional ports.

Q: What optics are supported?
A: Shortwave MMF (850nm) 32G SFP28 and 64G SFP56, and corresponding longwave SMF options depending on transceiver choice.

Q: Is the airflow direction front-to-back?
A: Yes. Port-side Exhaust provides front-to-back airflow for hot-aisle designs.

Q: Can any port be used for ISL uplinks?
A: Yes. Any port can serve as a device port or inter-switch link with trunking support.

Q: Does this bundle include transceivers?
A: No. Optics are not included and should be ordered separately to match your cabling.
