SWITCHINGDATA SHEETOVERVIEWThe 3Com® Switch 4200G Gigabit Family deliversquad-speed performance—10/100/1000 and 10-Gigabit–with plug-and-play "Gigabit-to-the-Desktop"switching and rich, easy-to-use features perfect forcost-conscious medium-sized businesses wanting afast, efficient network upgrade.Layer 2 switching along with Layer 3 static routesmake these ideal for wiring closet, workgroupconnectivity. For great flexibility, four of the ports aredual-personality, operating either as 10/100/1000 orSFP-based fiber. These switches accommodate one ortwo extra optional 10-Gigabit high-speed links,enabling connectivity to a core network or to high-performance servers.Enterprise-class security features include IEEE 802.1Xnetwork login, SSL encrypted device log-in and AccessControl Lists. These switches come with a limitedlifetime warranty and next business day, advancedhardware replacement in most regions.Family switch models—clusterable in any combinationup to 32 units—are:>3Com Switch 4200G 12-Port:12 auto-negotiating 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T ports, 4 of which are dual-personality10/100/1000 or SFP Gigabit; 1 10-Gigabit slot>3Com Switch 4200G 24-Port:24 auto-negotiating 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T ports, 4 of which are dual-personality10/100/1000 or SFP Gigabit; 2 10-Gigabit slots>3Com Switch 4200G PWR 24-Port:24 auto-negotiating 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T ports, 4 of which are dual-personality10/100/1000 or SFP Gigabit; 2 10-Gigabit slots;Power over Ethernet on all 10/100/1000 ports>3Com Switch 4200G 48-Port:48 auto-negotiating 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T ports, 4 of which are dual-personality10/100/1000 or SFP Gigabit; 2 10-Gigabit slotsKEY BENEFITSAFFORDABLE MANAGED GIGABIT CONNECTIVITYThe Switch 4200G family is 3Com’s most economicalGigabit managed stackable switch line. Achieve up to a10-times performance improvement with Gigabit, atprices many still associate with 10/100 switches.FUTURE PROOF NETWORKING3Com Switch 4200G switches provide outstandinginvestment protection by providing quad-speed10/100/1000 Mbps and 10-Gigabit switching. Graduallymove users to Gigabit speeds, with full backwardcompatibility with slower 100 Mbps and 10 Mbpsnetworking.Switch 4200G models support 10-Gigabit uplinks to tieinto an evolving core network infrastructure. They areXENPAK transceiver ready, requiring no additionalmodule for 10-Gigabit XENPAK support. A module for10-Gigabit XFP support is also available.3COM SWITCH 4200GGIGABIT FAMILYFrom top: 3Com Switch 4200G 12-Port, Switch 4200G 24-Port,Switch 4200G 48-Port, Switch 4200G PWR 24-Port
