48x gigabit Ethernet, 4x SFP+

The switch is equipped with 48 gigabit Ethernet ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) and 4 SFP+ slots (10 Gbps). It has a switching capacity of 176 Gbps and a packet forwarding rate of 131 Mpps. The SFP+ slots provide high-speed connectivity (up to 10 Gbps), allowing for the connection of multiple network segments or high-performance devices such as servers.

Layer 2+ management, iStack

The device fully supports Layer 2 management and also includes basic Layer 3 functions such as static routing. It supports VLANs, multicasts (IGMP Snooping, MLD Snooping), Quality of Service (QoS), and Access Control Lists (ACL). It also supports Spanning Tree Protocols (STP / RSTP / MSTP) and the modern ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching) standard defined in ITU-T G.8032.

The switch provides essential network security features. It protects against DoS attacks such as SYN flood, Land, Smurf, and ICMP flood. It also has protection against user-targeted attacks, including rogue DHCP server attacks, IP/MAC spoofing, DHCP request flood, and DHCP CHADDR attacks.

The S310 series supports the iStack feature, allowing multiple switches to be logically stacked into a single virtual switch. This simplifies network management and enables the creation of additional backup connections, providing protection against potential failures.

Management is carried out through a graphical Web interface, CLI, or using SNMP (v1, v2c, v3) / SSH2.0. Devices in the S310 series can also be managed in the cloud, and in this case, you can additionally use the Huawei eKit app.

Usage

Thanks to its extensive management capabilities, the S310-48T4X is an excellent choice as the main switch in various types of networks. The use of 48 ports allows you to connect many devices that do not require PoE power. In smaller office networks, the S310-48T4X can successfully serve as the sole switch. The SFP+ slots can be used to connect aggregating switches or important devices such as NAS servers or routers.
