Managed switch LevelOne KILBY 28-portový L3 Lite

The LevelOne KILBY 28-Port L3 Lite Managed Switch (model GTL-2882) is a stackable Gigabit Ethernet Layer3 Lite switch designed for enterprise edge and aggregation. It provides 24 copper 10/100/1000BASE-T ports plus 2 Gigabit SFP/RJ45 combo ports, two 10GbE SFP+ ports and one 10G expansion slot for a dual-port module. With a 128 Gbit/s switching capacity and a MAC table of 16,000 entries, the switch supports common networking standards including IEEE 802.1D, 802.1Q and other L2/L3 features for efficient network management.

Advantages

The managed LevelOne KILBY GTL-2882 delivers high throughput and scalability with 10G uplink options and a dedicated expansion slot, enabling aggregation of servers and backbone upgrades. It includes Layer3 Lite capabilities, rich IEEE-standard support and a sizable MAC address table for flexible deployment. The switch balances performance and cost-effectiveness while offering centralized management and advanced QoS and security features suitable for business networks.

Suitable for

• Enterprise data center server aggregation
• Backbone or distribution layer upgrades

How to use

Install the switch in a standard 19-inch rack using the supplied mounting brackets. Connect copper devices to the 10/100/1000BASE-T ports and use SFP/SFP+ ports or the 10G expansion slot for fiber uplinks to servers or aggregation switches. Configure management settings (VLANs, QoS, routing, security policies) via the switch’s management interface or CLI according to your network design. Monitor status and performance using the switch’s monitoring features to ensure continuous availability.

Recommendations

For best results, use the 10GbE SFP+ ports and the 10G expansion slot for uplinks to servers or core switches, enable appropriate VLAN segmentation and QoS policies for critical traffic, and keep firmware up to date to maintain security and stability.
