Introduction
CTS’s Managed Switch is designed to meet the emerging FTTX & Metro Ethernet requirements. Its
low profile appearance with 1U height and the standard 8.5-inch rack-mounted size achieve high
density within a single rack. With 12 fiber ports to be deployed, the Managed Switch provides the
best performance and price ratio.
1.1 Overview of FOS-5112
FOS-5112, a compact 8.5-inch and rack mountable Managed Switch, has 8 Gigabit SFP ports
(100/1000Base-X) and 4 SFP+ uplink ports (1G/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 Metro Ethernet application.
Besides, it can
be used as a stand-alone switch. With the height of 1U and the half-size rack design in appearance,
FOS-5112 can be used in
closet wiring as well, which is especially suitable for the small cabinet and
narrow space installation environment.
