NETGEAR XSM4324CS — M4300-24X Stackable Managed Switch with 24x10GBASE-T including 4x shared SFP+ (XSM4324CS)

NETGEAR M4300‑24X Fully Managed 10‑Gigabit Switch for SMB Core and Aggregation

The NETGEAR M4300‑24X is a fully managed Layer 3 10‑Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for
small to mid‑size business networks that require high‑performance copper connectivity, flexible uplinks,
and enterprise‑grade reliability. Built as part of the NETGEAR M4300 series, it is ideally suited for
core, aggregation, or high‑performance access‑layer deployments.

High‑Density 10GBASE‑T Copper Connectivity

The M4300‑24X features 24 × 10GBASE‑T copper ports, providing high‑bandwidth connectivity
over standard Ethernet cabling. These ports support auto‑negotiation for lower speeds, making the switch
ideal for connecting 10G‑capable servers, storage systems, workstations, and high‑speed access switches
while maintaining backwards compatibility.

Flexible 10G Fibre Uplinks

For aggregation and core connectivity, the switch includes shared 10G SFP+ uplink ports,
allowing seamless integration with fibre backbones, data‑center switches, or stacked M4300 systems.
This uplink flexibility enables scalable designs without forcing an all‑at‑once upgrade.

Enterprise‑Grade Layer 3 Switching

The M4300‑24X delivers full Layer 2 and Layer 3 functionality, supporting advanced routing, VLAN
segmentation, and traffic optimisation. With features such as static and dynamic routing, access control,
and high‑availability protocols, it provides the control and performance required for growing SMB networks.

Scalable Stacking and High Availability

Designed for resilience, the M4300‑24X supports virtual chassis stacking with non‑stop forwarding and
hitless failover. Multiple switches can be managed as a single logical unit, improving redundancy,
simplifying management, and ensuring continuous operation for business‑critical applications.

Simplified Management and Business‑Ready Design

A full‑featured web‑based management interface, command‑line access, and industry‑standard management
protocols make the M4300‑24X easy to deploy and maintain. Its compact 1U rack‑mount form factor
fits cleanly into server rooms and wiring closets, making it suitable for both edge and core deployments.
