Data General S2300-8G4S

Description

Data General DG-S2300-8G4S – 8-Port fanless Gigabit Managed Switch with 4 SFP Ports

The Data General DG-S2300-8G4S is a cost-effective and high-performance Layer 2 managed switch, built for enterprise and industrial networking applications. Equipped with 8 adaptive 10/100/1000M RJ-45 ports and 4 Gigabit SFP fiber ports, it provides flexible connectivity for a wide range of network environments.

This fanless, silent switch is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from 0°C to 50°C, ensuring long-lasting reliability in industrial and commercial applications. The IEEE 802.3az energy-saving technology reduces power consumption while maintaining high-speed data transfer.

With advanced Layer 2 network management features, the DG-S2300-8G4S supports VLANs, QoS, port mirroring, redundant ring networking, and security features like MAC address filtering, DHCP Snooping, and RADIUS authentication. It also includes Spanning Tree Protocol (STP, RSTP, MSTP) and Rapid Link Detection Protocol (RLDP) to enhance network fault tolerance and quick link recovery.

The DG-S2300-8G4S supports remote management via SNMP, Web GUI, and CLI (SSH/Telnet/Console), making it an ideal choice for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), industrial applications, and campus networks.
