Zyxel XGS1935-28-EU0101F network switch Managed L2+/L3 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) 1U Black

The Zyxel XGS1935-28-EU0101F Black is a 28-port network switch built for high-performance local area networks. It offers 24 Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports and 4 SFP+ fiber-ready ports to support high-speed uplinks and aggregation. The switch implements advanced Layer 2 features and management options suitable for professional deployments in small to medium-sized businesses that require reliable connectivity, traffic segmentation and scalable uplink capacity.

Advantages

This switch combines a mix of copper Gigabit ports and SFP+ fiber connectivity to provide flexible port assignments and high-bandwidth uplinks. Its Layer 2 feature set enables VLAN segmentation, link aggregation and traffic prioritization to improve network stability and performance. The unit’s compact, rack-friendly design with a black finish facilitates integration into existing network racks and wiring closets while minimizing visual impact.

Suitable for

• Office networks requiring a mix of copper and fiber connections
• Server aggregation and high-speed uplinks to core switches
• Segmentation of departments using VLANs and QoS
• Small to medium-sized business networks with growth potential

Key specifications

• Port count: 24 x Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports and 4 x SFP+ ports
• Layer: Advanced Layer 2 switching features including VLAN, LACP and QoS
• Uplink: Four 10 Gbps-capable SFP+ slots for fiber or DAC connections
• Form factor: Rack-mountable compact chassis with black finish
• Management: Web-based GUI and standard management protocols for configuration

How to use

Install the switch in a suitable rack space or on a stable surface and connect power according to the supplied power requirements. Use Cat5e/Cat6 cables to connect endpoints to the Gigabit RJ45 ports and install compatible SFP+ transceivers or direct-attach cables in the SFP+ ports for fiber uplinks. Access the management interface via a web browser or supported management protocol to configure basic settings such as IP management address, VLANs, link aggregation and QoS policies. Monitor port status and traffic statistics through the management interface to verify correct operation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use Cat6 or better for copper connections and vendor-recommended SFP+ modules for fiber links. Segment traffic with VLANs and apply QoS to prioritize latency-sensitive services. Ensure firmware is kept up to date and follow proper grounding and ventilation practices when mounting in a rack.
