Optimize Network Performance with bandwidth and packet control
The QSW-M2106-4S provides bandwidth and packet control functions (such as LACP, VLAN, QoS, and IGMP Snooping) to boost network performance through IP grouping and bandwidth management.
| LACP | VLAN | QoS | IGMP Snooping |
|---|---|---|---|
| Link Aggregation (LAG) combines multiple network connections to increase throughput and protect against connection failure. | Virtual Networks (VLAN) allows groups of devices from different networks to be combined into a single network. | QoS (Quality of Service) helps prioritize bandwidth usage to optimize network resource allocation. | IGMP snooping assists in minimizing bandwidth loss and preventing network information leakage. |
Powerful security and system functions
The QSW-M2106-4S has powerful security and system functions (including ACL, LLDP, RSTP and Flow Control) to help administrators enhance network reliability using access controls, troubleshooting, loop prevention and avoiding packet loss.
| ACL | LLDP | RSTP | Flow Control |
|---|---|---|---|
| Access Control List filters packets based on rules to offer firewall-like security protection. | Link Layer Discovery Protocol allows devices to advertise device information to their directly connected peers/neighbors, simplifying troubleshooting processes. | Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol, RSTP ensures a loop-free topology for Ethernet networks by blocking or forwarding traffic. | Flow Control balances the traffic between a sender and a receiver to avoid network congestion. |
Desktop form factor for easy use in offices
With a compact and modern design, the QSW-M2106-4S stands out with its textured surface design. The flexible DC power connector enables universal deployment of the QSW-M2106-4S and each port can be easily identified. Being fully plug-and-play, devices can be simply connected to the QSW-M2106-4S and immediately used.
