SMC Networks' SMC6248M is a high-performance, managed,
stackable Layer 2 switch that provides an ideal solution
for workgroups and departments. The (48) 10/100Mbps
Fast Ethernet ports allow desktops to access network
resources through flexible 4 Gig uplinks. The entire  stack
can be managed via a single IP address for simplified net-
work administration.

Utilizing an 17.6Gbps switch capacity and support for
8,000 MAC addresses, the SMC6248M is a wire-speed,
high performance switch ideal for workgroups or depart-
ments. The SMC6248M supports port trunking with up to
6 trunk groups with 2 to 8 ports in each group per stack.
Port trunking enables business users to increase availability
and aggregated bandwidth between servers and/or other
switches, optimizing the transport of business critical
data. The SMC6248M uses 1 Gbps ports to interconnect up
to 8 units within a stack.

By supporting the IEEE approved specifications, the
SMC6248M leverages your existing investment in a
multi-vendor environment, while maximizing compatibility
of mission critical features such as, Spanning Tree
(802.1d), QoS (802.1p/DiffServ/TCP&UDP port number),
VLANs (802.1Q), and network management (SNMP/
RMON/BOOTP/Telnet/Web). The SMC6248M robust support
of standards-based network management protocols
(SNMP/RMON/BOOTP/Telnet/Web/TFTP) and port mirroring
enables the SMC6248M to be easily integrated into many
third-party network management packages. The
SMC6248M also supports redundant power when combined
with the SMCRPU14 Redundant power Supply unit.

The SMC6248M brings advanced enterprise functions to
a more affordable level while supporting advanced features:
L2/L3/L4 (QoS), 802.1x (Port-based Authentication),
IGMP snooping, 802.1w (Rapid Spanning Tree), , 802.3ad
(Link Aggregation), and 802.1q (VLANs).  L2/L3/L4
(ACLs) can be configured based on: Protocol type, 802.1p,
DSCP, MAC Address, IP Address, and/or TCP/UPD Port
Number. These features facilitate the deployment of
enterprise applications such as: VOIP, streaming media,
and multicast content delivery (IP video conferencing
and software deployment).
