It gives the enterprises, service providers and campuses flexible control over port density, uplinks and switch stack performance at an affordable price beyond value.

Dual AC Redundant Power to Ensure Continuous Operation
The SGS-6310-24T4X is equipped with two 100~240V AC power supply units for redundant power supply installation. A redundant power system is also provided to enhance the reliability with AC power supply units. The redundant power system is specifically designed to handle the demands of high-tech facilities requiring the highest power integrity.  

High Performance 10Gbps Ethernet Capacity
The four SFP+ ports built in the SGS-6310 series boast a high-performance switch architecture that is capable of providing non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed throughput as high as up to 80Gbps, which greatly meets high bandwidth demands in the LAN. Each of the SFP+ ports supports Dual-Speed, 10GBASE-SR/LR or 1000BASE-SX/LX, meaning the administrator now can flexibly choose the suitable SFP/SFP+ transceiver according to the transmission distance or the transmission speed required to extend the network efficiently.

Centralized Hardware Stacking Management
Two of the 10G SFP+ ports can be configured to connect several SGS-6310 series for building a virtually logical facility. The stackable SGS-6310 series, suitable for the enterprises, service providers and telecoms, provides high port density, large uplink bandwidth and high stacking performance, thus giving great flexibility for different application requirements. The SGS-6310 series can connect as a ring for redundancy and ensures that data integrity is retained even if one switch in the stack fails. You can even hot-swap switches without disrupting the network operations.

Redundant Ring, Fast Recovery for Critical Network Applications
The SGS-6310 series supports redundant ring technology and features strong, rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruptions and external intrusions. It incorporates advanced ITU-T G.8032 ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching) technology and Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1s MSTP) into customer’s network to enhance system reliability and uptime in harsh environments. In a certain simple ring network, the recovery time could be less than 10ms to quickly bring the network back to normal operation.

Layer 3 Routing Support
The SGS-6310 series enables the administrator to conveniently boost network efficiency by configuring Layer 3 static routing manually, the RIP (Routing Information Protocol) or OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) settings automatically. 

The RIP can employ the hop count as a routing metric and prevent routing loops by implementing a limit on the number of hops allowed in a path from the source to a destination. 

The OSPF is an interior dynamic routing protocol for autonomous system based on link state. The protocol creates a database for link state by exchanging link states among Layer 3 switches, and then uses the Shortest Path First algorithm to generate a route table based on that database.

Strong Multicast
The SGS-6310 series supports abundant multicast features. In Layer 2, it features IPv4 IGMPv1/v2/v3 snooping and IPv6 MLD v1 snooping. With Multicast VLAN Register (MVR), multicast receiver/sender control and illegal multicast source detect functions which make the SGS-6310 series great for any robust networking.

Full IPv6 Support 
The SGS-6310-Series supports IPv4-to-IPv6 technologies including IPv4 manual/automatic tunnel, IPv6-to-IPv4 tunnel, and Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol (ISATAP) tunnel. It comprehensively supports IPv6 Neighbor Discovery, DHCPv6, Path MTU Discovery, IPv6-based Telnet, SSH and ACL, meeting the need of IPv6 network device management and service control. 

Robust Layer 2 Features
The SGS-6310 series can be programmed for basic switch management functions such as port speed configuration, port aggregation, VLAN, Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol, bandwidth control and IGMP snooping. This switch provides 802.1Q tagged VLAN, Q-in-Q, voice VLAN and GVRP Protocol functions. By supporting port link aggregation, the SGS-6310 series allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combined with multiple ports.  It enables up to 64 groups for trunking with a maximum of 8 ports for each group. 

Excellent Layer 2 to Layer 4 Traffic Control
The SGS-6310 series is loaded with powerful traffic management and WRR features to enhance services offered by enterprises. The WRR functionalities include wire-speed Layer 4 traffic classifiers and bandwidth limitation which are particularly useful for multi-tenant unit, multi-business unit, Telco, or network service applications. It also empowers the enterprises to take full advantage of the limited network resources and guarantees the best in VoIP and video conferencing transmission. 

Powerful Network Security
The SGS-6310 series offers comprehensive Layer 2 to Layer 4 Access Control List (ACL) for enforcing security to the edge. It can be used to restrict network access by denying packets based on source and destination IP address, TCP/UDP ports or defined typical network applications. Its protection mechanism also comprises 802.1x Port-based and MAC-based user and device authentications, which can be deployed with RADIUS, to ensure the port level security and block illegal users.

Advanced IP Network Protection
The SGS-6310 series also provides DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard and Dynamic ARP Inspection functions to prevent IP snooping from attack and discard ARP packets with invalid MAC address. The network administrators can now construct highly-secure corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.

Efficient and Secure Management
