High-Density, Stackable 10/100 Switching
Deploy high-performance, feature-rich Ethernet LAN switching with high port density. This affordable, intelligent 10/100 switch is fully manageable, making it a good choice for networks of any size.

The 3Com® SuperStack® 3 Switch 4400 also helps increase network availability and reliability. The switch optimizes and controls data flow through the use of advanced quality of service, helping to ensure that mission-critical traffic reaches the intended users every time.

Rapid Spanning Tree, stack-wide trunking, resilient stacking, link aggregation and built-in redundant power supply support deliver robust performance and fault tolerance.

Optional switching modules provide resilient high-speed connections such as Fast Ethernet, including 100BASE-LX (Ethernet in the First Mile), and Gigabit Ethernet copper or fiber links.

User network login with IEEE 802.1X and RADIUS, combined with RADIUS Authenticated Device Access (RADA), based on MAC address, provide secure network access control at the network edge

Authenticated users can be automatically placed into a specific VLAN, restricting access only to the data needed

Secure Shell (SSH) encryption of login passwords, management VLANs, and management station "trusted IP address" lists help protect network from rogue management threats

LACP (IEEE 802.3ad) intelligently detects configuration duplicity and uses it to trunk up to 4Gb of bandwidth across a stack, while nullifying single points of failure from the network's edge infrastructure

Advanced Layer 4 functionality identifies and prioritizes real-time or business-critical applications such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, LAN telephony, and video streaming

Add optional switching modules to provide resilient high-speed connections, such as Gigabit Ethernet backbone links, or 100BASE-LX 10 links for Ethernet in First Mile over Point to Point Fiber (EFMF)

Backup and restore functionality enables switch configurations to be captured and reapplied individually to a single switch or across a whole network at a push of a button

Forwarding up to 10.1 million pps, with a massive switching fabric of 13.6 Gbps, provides industry-leading performance

Mix and match 24-port and 48-port SuperStack 3 Switch 4400s to create a resilient stack of up to a total of 384 10/100 connections

Stackable architecture increases scalability and allows high-speed trunks between workgroup and other resources

3Com Network Supervisor 3.0 software (60-day trial included) supports automatic prioritization of real-time or critical traffic

Resilient hot-swappable stacking and network connections enhance network availability and usability
