FS4116R specifications

Asante Technologies has made a significant impact in the networking industry with its advanced Ethernet switches, particularly the FS4124R and FS4116R models. These switches are designed for high-performance networking, making them ideal for various applications ranging from small enterprises to large data centers.

The Asante FS4124R is a robust Layer 2 managed switch featuring 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, ensuring fast data transfer rates and efficient network management. Its compact design is suited for environments with limited space while still providing extensive connectivity options. The FS4124R supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing users to power devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points directly from the switch, reducing the need for additional power sources and simplifying installation.

On the other hand, the FS4116R is another remarkable model, featuring 16 Gigabit Ethernet ports and a similar focus on performance and efficiency. This switch is particularly well-suited for medium-sized networks that require reliable connectivity without compromising on speed. Like its counterpart, the FS4116R also supports PoE, making it a versatile choice for various network topologies.

Both the FS4124R and FS4116R utilize advanced switching technologies, including store-and-forward architecture, which enhances data integrity by filtering out corrupt packets before forwarding. This results in a more reliable network and significantly reduces the chances of downtime.

Security is a top priority for Asante, and both models incorporate features such as VLAN support and port security to ensure that network traffic is segregated and secure from unauthorized access. The switches also support Quality of Service (QoS), allowing administrators to prioritize critical applications and maintain optimal performance during peak usage times.

Management of the FS4124R and FS4116R is simplified through web-based interfaces and SNMP compatibility, providing network administrators with the tools necessary to monitor and configure the switches easily. The built-in diagnostics tools also aid in troubleshooting network issues, ensuring minimal disruption.

In summary, Asante Technologies’ FS4124R and FS4116R switches stand out for their performance, flexibility, and management features, making them ideal choices for businesses seeking reliable networking solutions that can grow with their needs. Their ability to support PoE, advanced security features, and simple management interfaces position them as top contenders in the Ethernet switch market.
