Introduction
CTS’s Managed Switch is designed to meet the emerging FTTX & Metro Ethernet requirements.
Besides the low profile appearance with 1U height and the standard rack-mounted size, the product
also achieves hassle-free monitoring and comprehensive management for any network operator
who desires to build up a reliable telecommunication network infrastructure. When it comes to FTTX
deployment, the Managed Switch provides the best performance and price ratio.
1.1 Overview of ESW-5128
The product is a 19-inch and rack mountable Managed Switch, equipped with 24 Gigabit Ethernet
ports (10/100/1000Base-T) and 4 SFP+ uplink ports (1/10GBase-R) on the front panel. This
Managed Switch provides high performance, store and forward switching capability plus other
advanced features such as QoS, VLAN, Spanning Tree, LACP and so on.
LED indicators located on the front panel ease the users’ effort to monitor and manage the network
status. The built-in management module also allows users to configure, control and monitor the
system locally via console or remotely via SNMP-based management system.
This Managed Switch is a typical SFP/SFP+ solution to FTTX service implementation. Besides, it
can be used as a stand-alone switch. With the height of 1U and the standard-size rack design in
appearance, the network switch can be used in closet wiring as well.
