Introduces the features and characteristics of SMC8724M/SMC8748M switches
The TigerStack 10G is a Gigabit Ethernet switch offering 24 or 48 auto‑MDI/MDI‑X 10/100/1000BASE‑T ports, four shared SFP transceiver slots, and a non‑blocking switching architecture. It supports redundant power, advanced spanning‑tree protocols, up to 32 LACP or static trunks, and full VLAN, QoS, and jumbo‑frame capabilities, and can be managed via console, web interface, or SNMP/RMON.
The guide also includes warranty information, regulatory compliance (FCC Class A, Industry Canada Class A, CE Mark), and technical support contacts for worldwide customers. Installation notes cover cabling requirements, grounding, and anti‑static precautions.
