MSW-4424A layer 2+ managed Gigabit Ethernet switches are positioned as a Carrier Ethernet access switch solution. They areequipped with 24 SFP based 100Base-FX/1000Base-X dual speed optical ports and 4 10G Base-X SFP+ or 1000Base-X SFP uplink ports.The MSW-4424A offers the best flexibility and scalability for operators and service providers to deploy their Metro Ethernet networks.Aimed specifically at Metro Ethernet deployment, the specifications of MSW-4424A fully meet the attributes of Carrier Ethernetproposed by the Metro Ethernet Forum. The switches comply with MEF 9 standard to support E-Line/E-Access services and MEF 14standard to enable the bandwidth profile configuration for delivering SLA (Service Level Agreement) with predictable end-to-endperformance characteristics. MSW-4424A also supports advanced service OAM management to rapidly detect and recover from thenetwork incidents in real time.
