1.1 Switch Description

The Fortinet FortiSwitch-100 Ethernet Switch is a modular Gigabit Ethernet backbone switch designed for adaptability and scalability. The switch can utilize up to forty-eight Gigabit Ethernet ports to function as a central distribution hub for other switches, switch groups, or routers. The two built-in combination Gigabit ports support 1000BASE-T or SFP Gigabit connections. The FortiSwitch-100 also provides two types of 10 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces on the optional daughter board, yielding four additional ports: four powered CX4 interfaces in the FS-TRX100-CX4, or four SFP+ interfaces in the FS-TRX100-SFP.
