The ComNet CNGE3FE8MS has three 100/1000Base-FX SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Module; sold separately) ports and eight 10/100Base-TX ports. Two of the SFP ports support 2.5 Gbps SFPs for high speed communication in bandwidth intensive applications. All SFP ports utilize ComNet SFP modules for fiber and connector type and distance. The ComNet exclusive Port Guardian feature provides additional cyber security protection by enabling physical port lockout in the event that an existing cable is disconnected and prevents a potential network incursion using common spoofing techniques. The intrusion event is reported back to the operator using SNMP. The series offers multiple Ethernet redundancy protocols which protect your applications from network interruptions or temporary malfunctions by redirecting transmission within the network. The switch provides advanced IP-based management that can limit the maximum bandwidth for each connected IP device, allowing the user to adjust usage. The CNGE3FE8MSPOE models provide eight electrical ports supporting up to thirty watts of power. On the CNGE3FE8MSPOEHO model, four of the eight PoE ports can support up to sixty watts of PoE power. All PoE ports are IEEE802.3at compliant.
