CMS-821GF, L2+ Switch

L2+ Managed Switch – 8 x 10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 + 2 x 100M/1Gbps SFP Ports

( Single Internal Power Supply )

 

The CMS-821GF 8-Port Gigabit Managed Ethernet Switch is designed for commercial, and KVM or AV-over-IP network deployments requiring reliable Layer 2+ switching performance. The switch features 8 x 10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 ports and 2 x 1GbE SFP uplink ports for flexible copper and fiber connectivity. It supports a non-blocking switch architecture for stable low-latency data transmission. Advanced Layer 2+ management functions include VLAN, QoS, MSTP, LACP, LLDP, sFlow, and static routing. Multicast features including IGMP Snooping V1/V2/V3, IGMP Querier, IGMP Proxy, MVR, and MLD Snooping V1/V2 optimize multicast traffic handling for AV-over-IP applications. Security features such as 802.1X, RADIUS, TACACS+, ACLs, IP Source Guard, and Port Security enhance network access protection. Additional functions including DHCP Server, Relay, and Snooping simplify network management, while IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet helps reduce power consumption. The compact 13-inch rack-mountable design allows easy integration into standard network environments.
