M4300: 25Gb / SFP28 Model?

Hello:

 

We are starting to use (and really like) the M4300 series switches.  However 25Gb seems to be gaining traction.

 

Is there a varient planned of the 8X8For 12X12F with the fiber ports supporting 25Gb SFP28 Ethernet? 

 

Thank you!

David

Hi @pepRiCio 

 

Welcome to Community!

 

Actually, M4300 Seriels switch not support 25G/SFP28 currently.

It only support 100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G/40G in different modules.

For detailed info, please refer to here.

And we have plan to support 25G&50G with SFP28 later on new type switch.

Hope it helps!

@EricZ,

 

Thank you for the information. 

 

Just to clarify, will 25Gb be coming as a new M4300 variety, or a whole new family?

 

Is either case, will the new 25Gb stack seamlessly with the existing M4300 units? 

 

Thank you!

The m4500 switches with 25gb SFP28 are now avaliable: https://www.netgear.com/business/products/switches/managed/m4500.aspx

They do not stack with m4300's however. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you for the M4500 link.  Those look very nice.

 

Do you know if lower port count and lower cost varienrt are planned.  Also will there be updates to stack with M4300, at least via SFP+ or with some feature limitations? 

 

Thank you again!
