Affordable 10-Gigabit Switching Solution for Growing SMBs

T1700 Series 10G Smart Switches

In a world of expanding enterprises and growing virtualization, cloud-based services and applications, like VoIP, HD streaming video, and IP surveillance, SMB networks need to evolve beyond simple reliability to provide increased scalability, higher bandwidth, and enhanced performance. TP-LINK’s new T1700 Series 10G Smart Switches represent an ideal solution that meets these requirements. The series includes the T1700X-16TS Full 10-Gigabit Smart Switch and the T1700G-28TQ Gigabit Stackable Smart Switch with 10G Uplink, which both provide high levels of performance, scalability, and cost-effectiveness that SMBs require from their 10G networking solutions.

Future-Proof 10GBase-T Technology

Until recently, 10-Gigabit connectivity was available only in the expensive fiber based technology that supports high-speed access to the network backbone or data center environment.Today, 10GBase-T Technology is becoming more common and affordable. Low-Latency, Line-Rate 10G Copper Base-T is backward compatible with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet and can automatically negotiate between higher and lower speed connections. Most importantly, 10GBase-T provides a cost-effective method for migrating from your current network to 10G Ethernet by utilizing your existing CAT5e/CAT6 RJ-45 short connections (up to 55m) and CAT6A/CAT7 connections (up to 100m). This reduces cabling complexity and ultimately results in significant savings for customers.

16 10-Gigabit Ports, 320Gbps Switching Capacity

The T1700X-16TS features 12 10GBase-T RJ45 ports and four dedicated SFP+ fiber slots, which can support up to 320Gbps of combined switching bandwidth. This provides great resiliency, relieves congestion associated with bandwidth-intensive applications, and guarantees smooth data transmission.

Software Features

L2+ Static Routing

Simple network segmentation, with internal routing through the switch, allows devices in different VLANs/subnets to communicate with each other and makes the flow of network traffic more efficient.

Abundant L2 Features

T1700 Series devices are equipped with a full lineup of L2 features that meet your current and future needs for unified networking and mobility.

• 802.1Q/MAC/Protocol/Private VLAN1
• Link Aggregation Group (LAG)
• IGMP & MLD Snooping
• Multicast VLAN

Robust Security Strategies

Support for numerous security strategies allow you to create a secure, unified network by preventing unauthorized access, external attacks, and malware infiltration.

• Access Control List (ACL)
• DHCP Snooping
• 802.1x Authentication
• IP-MAC-Port Binding

Comprehensive QoS Features

Advanced controls provide optimized network performance and efficient delivery of time-sensitive traffic.

• Port-Based or 802.1p-Based Prioritization
• Layer 3-Based (DSCP) Prioritization
• Rate Limit
• Voice VLAN

IPv6 Support

The T1700 Series offers comprehensive IPv6 features, including IPv6 management, Static Routing, ACL, and QoS2, which ease the transition to an IPv6-based network and protect the value of your investment.

Dual Image

Dual image firmware reduces downtime when the firmware is being updated. The backup image will also be activated in the event that any error occurs on the active image.
