The NETGEAR M4300 Stackable Switch Series delivers L2/L3/L4 and IPv4/IPv6 cost-effective services for mid-enterprise edge with full PoE+ and SMB core deployments with unrivalled ease of use: 10 Gigabit models can seamlessly stack with 1 Gigabit models within the series, enabling spine and leaf line-rate stacking topologies. Non-stop forwarding (NSF) virtual chassis architectures provide advanced High Availability (HA) with hitless failover across the stack. Dual redundant, modular power supplies equipping full width models contribute to business continuity management. Layer 3 feature set includes static, dynamic and policy-based routing €“ as standard. Perfect for wireless access, unified communications and IP video, the NETGEAR M4300 Switch Series is also ready for the future, with Software-defined Network (SDN) and OpenFlow 1.3 enabled for your network. Best-in-class stacking - M4300 is flexible enough for mixed stacking between 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit models, using any 10G port with any media type (RJ45, SFP+, DAC cables) - High-availability is another key differentiator for stackable solutions: in case of a master switch failure, NSF and hitless failover ensure the standby switch takes over while forwarding plane continues to forward traffic on the operational stack members without any service interruption Higher flexibility - Two half-width M4300 switches can be paired in a single rack space for redundant Top of Rack installations with Auto-iSCSI prioritization - 10 Gigabit ports are all independent and 1G backward compatible for progressive transition to 10G speeds Lower complexity - Entire feature set including L2 switching (multi-tiered access control) and L3 routing (static, RIP, OSPF, VRRP, PIM, PBR) is available without license - DHCP/BootP innovative auto-installation including firmware and configuration file upload automation Investment protection - Line-rate spine and leaf stacking topologies offer multiple possibilities in server rooms, in branch collapsed cores or at the edge of growing networks - Even if an organization is not ready for SDN, OpenFlow support offers future-ready design for maximum investment protection Secure services - With successive tiering, the Authentication Manager allows for authentication methods per port for a tiered authentication based on configured time-outs - With BYOD, tiered Dot1x -> MAB -> Captive Portal authentication is powerful and simple to implement with strict policies Industry standard management - Industry standard command line interface (CLI), functional NETGEAR web interface (GUI), SNMP, sFlow and RSPAN - Single-pane-of-glass NMS300 management platform with centralized firmware updates and mass-configuration support Industry leading warranty - NETGEAR M4300 series is covered under NETGEAR ProSafe Lifetime Hardware Warranty - 90 days of Technical Support via phone and email, Lifetime Technical Support through online chat and Lifetime Next Business Day hardware replacement Specification: Management features Multicast support Yes ARP inspection Yes Switch type Managed Web-based management Yes Quality of Service (QoS) support Yes Switch layer L2/L3/L4 Network IGMP snooping Yes Cable types supported Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, Cat7, Fiber Auto-sensing Yes Networking standards IEEE 802.11ad, IEEE 802.11az, IEEE 802.3ad, IEEE 802.3az VLAN support Yes Spanning tree protocol Yes Rate limiting Yes Port mirroring Yes Number of VLANs 4000 Link aggregation Yes IP routing Yes Flow control support Yes Auto MDI/MDI-X Yes 10G support Yes Auto-negotiation Yes Virtual LAN features Private VLAN Virtual LAN features VLAN support Yes Number of VLANs 4000 Virtual LAN features Private VLAN Data transmission Number of multicast groups filtered 4000 Number of VLANs 4000 Jumbo frames 9000 Number of static routes 64 Packet buffer memory 16 MB MAC address table 16000 entries Switching capacity 176 Gbit/s Store-and-forward Yes Jumbo frames support Yes Forwarding rate 357 Mpps Optical fiber Fiber optic connector SFP+ Fiber ethernet cabling technology 10GBASE-LR, 10GBASE-LRM, 10GBASE-SR Performance Packet buffer memory 16 MB Stackable Yes Auto-negotiation Yes Processor frequency 800 MHz Noise level 39.8 dB Mean time between failures (MTBF) 673207 h Internal memory 1024 MB Flash memory 256 MB Built-in processor Yes Harmonized System (HS) code 85176990 Technical details Form factor 1U Product colour Black Stackable Yes Processor frequency 800 MHz Noise level 39.8 dB Mean time between failures (MTBF) 673207 h Rack mounting Yes Built-in processor Yes Ports & interfaces SFP+ module slots quantity 2 Basic switching RJ-45 Ethernet ports quantity 48 Basic switching RJ-45 Ethernet ports type Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) USB 2.0 ports quantity 1 Fiber optic connector SFP+ Console port RJ-45/Mini-USB Security BPDU filtering/protection Yes SSH/SSL support Yes Security algorithms HTTPS, SNMP, SSH IGMP snooping Yes Access Control List (ACL) Yes DHCP features DHCP server, DHCP client Multicast features Number of multicast groups filtered 4000 Multicast support Yes Certificates Safety CSA 22.2 #950, UL 1950)/cUL IEC 950/EN 60950 Electromagnetic compatibility CE, FCC 15 A, VCCI A, A EN 55022, (CISPR 22) A, EN 50082-1, EN 55024 Memory Packet buffer memory 16 MB Internal memory 1024 MB Flash memory 256 MB Design Safety CSA 22.2 #950, UL 1950)/cUL IEC 950/EN 60950 Form factor 1U Product colour Black Stackable Yes LED indicators Activity, Power, Speed Electromagnetic compatibility CE, FCC 15 A, VCCI A, A EN 55022, (CISPR 22) A, EN 50082-1, EN 55024 Rack mounting Yes Indication LED indicators Activity, Power, Speed Power Power consumption (max) 888 W Power supply included Yes AC input voltage 120 -
