5420 Series – Universal Edge Switches

MANAGED SWITCHES
Comes with a dual-persona capability, allowing you to choose your Operating System (OS). Either the Switch Engine (EXOS) or Fabric Engine (VOSS) OS can be selected at switch start-up or changed at a later stage.
INSTANT ONBOARDING
5420 Series onboarding to the cloud is a hands-off operation using zero touch provisioning. Simply connect the switch to the network, and it automatically connects to the cloud, ready to be provisioned.
STACKABLE
Supports high-speed stacking when running Switch Engine via its two built-in SFP-DD stacking ports. Up to eight switches can be stacked using qualified SF- P+/SFP-DD direct attach cables and optical transceivers.

* Includes 2 x 1 /10G ports available using the SFP-DD ports when these ports are not used for stacking with Switch Engine, or when in non-Fabric mode with Fabric Engine
** Includes 4 x 1 /10Gb ports available through channelization of the 2 x SFP-DD ports when these ports are not used for stacking with Switch Engine, or when in non-Fabric mode with Fabric Engine. It also includes the 4 x SFP28 uplink ports when run at 1/10Gb
*** Switch Engine only: 20Gb stacking requires SFP-DD transceivers/cables; 10Gb stacking supported using SFP+ transceivers/cables
