In this blog post, Comms Express will explore the key features of the Draytek VigorSwitch FX2120 and how it can benefit businesses of all sizes.
Introducing the VigorSwitch FX2120. Draytek’s 12 SFP+ port 10 Gigabit Ethernet L2+ Managed switch. SFP+ module slots are ideal for core and distribution network deployments. Use faster links to connect with business-critical appliances including NAS drives, distribution switches and servers.
