The GigaCore 16Xt is a Gigabit Ethernet switch. This blue coloured 1U rackmount switch from Luminex has ten RJ45 etherCON connectors on the front panel. There are a further two RJ45 etherCON on the rear along with four SFP Cages. IPS also stock a range of fibre cabling to make use of the SFP options and extend networks over larger areas.
