XSNet 2800 SW v.3 

 

Part I: description, features, hardware installation 

 
 
1. General description 
 

XSNet 2800 SW switches will handle eight electrical 
(Ethernet) data streams, and also provide two 
independent gigabit optical uplinks through SFP single-
mode or multimode packages using two fibres per port 
(wavelengths 850 nm, 1300 nm, or CWDM) or one 
fibre (SM-BiDi option, ca. 10 km). The switches are 
especially suitable for use in outdoor housings. 
The non-blocking, highly configurable switches support 
the following protocols: ARP, LLC, IP, UDP, IGMP, 
Spanning Tree (STP) and Rapid Spanning Tree 
(RSTP).  
Front panel status LEDs provide information about 
power, port speed and port activity. 
The switches come in the form of double-width (14TE) 
Eurocassettes fitting in MC 11 or similar power supply 
cabinets, or as stand-alone units (/SA option). Device 
configuration can be performed in-band using the built-
in http server. In-band device and link management 
using a GUI can be performed with the aid of 
Optelecom-NKF utility programs based on the MX 
protocol. In an EB-2 type power supply cabinet, the 
switches can be configured and managed with the SNM 
protocol [variable by name protocol not implemented].
