Netgear M4300-8X8F Stackable Managed Switch: Enterprise-Grade 10G Networking Solution

The Netgear XSM4316S-100NES M4300-8X8F is a high-performance Layer 3 stackable managed switch that delivers enterprise-grade networking capabilities with 16 10-Gigabit ports, including 8x10GBASE-T and 8xSFP+ interfaces. This versatile switch combines advanced features like non-stop forwarding (NSF), virtual chassis architecture, and comprehensive Layer 2/3/4 functionality, making it ideal for mid-enterprise edge and SMB core deployments.

Advanced Networking Capabilities

Experience superior network performance with dual connectivity options featuring 8x10GBASE-T ports for copper connections and 8xSFP+ slots for fiber optic connectivity. The switch supports both Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet technologies, offering backward compatibility for seamless network upgrades. With Layer 3 capabilities, it handles complex routing requirements including static, RIP, OSPF, VRRP, PIM, and policy-based routing without additional licensing.

Key Features:
  • 16 10-Gigabit ports (8x10GBASE-T + 8xSFP+)
  • Layer 3 switching capabilities
  • Flexible stacking with 1G/10G models
  • Non-stop forwarding with hitless failover

Enterprise-Grade Stacking and High Availability

The M4300-8X8F excels in stacking flexibility, allowing mixed stacking between 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit models using any 10G port with various media types (RJ45, SFP+, DAC cables). The virtual chassis architecture ensures business continuity through non-stop forwarding and hitless failover capabilities, maintaining uninterrupted network operations even during master switch failures.

Future-Ready Network Management

This ProSafe series switch is equipped with Software-defined Network (SDN) capabilities and OpenFlow 1.3 support, ensuring your network infrastructure is prepared for future innovations. Management options include industry-standard CLI, NETGEAR web interface, SNMP, sFlow, and RSPAN, with the additional benefit of single-pane-of-glass management through the NMS300 platform.

Security and Authentication

Implement robust security measures with multi-tiered access control and the Authentication Manager, which enables port-based authentication methods with tiered authentication timeouts. The switch supports BYOD environments through a powerful combination of Dot1x, MAB, and Captive Portal authentication with strict policy enforcement.

Installation and Support

The 2U rack-mountable design allows for flexible deployment options, including redundant Top of Rack installations when paired with another half-width M4300 switch. NETGEAR provides comprehensive support through:

  • ProSafe Lifetime Hardware Warranty
  • 90-day phone and email technical support

Non-stop forwarding (NSF) virtual chassis architectures provide advanced High Availability (HA) with hitless failover across the stack. Dual redundant, modular power supplies equipping full width models contribute to business continuity management. Layer 3 feature set includes static, dynamic and policy-based routing - as standard. Perfect for wireless access, unified communications and IP video, the NETGEAR M4300 Switch Series is also ready for the future, with Software-defined Network (SDN) and OpenFlow 1.3 enabled for your network.

Best-in-class stacking
  • M4300 is flexible enough for mixed stacking between 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit models, using any 10G port with any media type (RJ45, SFP+, DAC cables)
  • High-availability is another key differentiator for stackable solutions: in case of a master switch failure, NSF and hitless failover ensure the standby switch takes over while forwarding plane continues to forward traffic on the operational stack members without any service interruption
Higher flexibility
  • Two half-width M4300 switches can be paired in a single rack space for redundant Top of Rack installations with Auto-iSCSI prioritization
  • 10 Gigabit ports are all independent and 1G backward compatible for progressive transition to 10G speeds
Lower complexity
  • Entire feature set including L2 switching (multi-tiered access control) and L3 routing (static, RIP, OSPF, VRRP, PIM, PBR) is available without license
  • DHCP/BootP innovative auto-installation including firmware and configuration file upload automation
Investment protection
  • Line-rate spine and leaf stacking topologies offer multiple possibilities in server rooms, in branch collapsed cores or at the edge of growing networks
  • Even if an organization is not ready for SDN, OpenFlow support offers future-ready design for maximum investment protection
Secure services
  • With successive tiering, the Authentication Manager allows for authentication methods per port for a tiered authentication based on configured time-outs
  • With BYOD, tiered Dot1x -> MAB -> Captive Portal authentication is powerful and simple to implement with strict policies
Industry standard management
  • Industry standard command line interface (CLI), functional NETGEAR web interface (GUI), SNMP, sFlow and RSPAN
  • Single-pane-of-glass NMS300 management platform with centralized firmware updates and mass-configuration support
Industry leading warranty
  • NETGEAR M4300 series is covered under NETGEAR ProSafe Lifetime Hardware Warranty
  • 90 days of Technical Support via phone and email, Lifetime Technical Support through online chat and Lifetime Next Business Day hardware replacement
