Eight SFP+ ports
Supports 10GbE and 1GbE fibre or compatible direct-attach connections.
A half-width rackmount unmanaged switch with eight 10GbE SFP+ ports and eight multi-speed 10GBASE-T RJ45 ports for high-speed fibre and copper networks.

The eight SFP+ ports support 10G and 1G, while the eight RJ45 ports support 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100M. The unmanaged design uses automatic link-speed negotiation with no complex switch configuration.
The two-switch side-by-side installation requires the optional SP-EAR-QSW2FOR1-01 kit. The specification table also states Console: Yes but does not identify the console interface or function.
