The GSW-1290 is a modular Gigabit Ethernet backbone Switch designed for adaptability and scalability. This switch provides an uplink to backbone for a stacked group of up to twelve GSW-2492 Switches in a star topology arrangement. Alternatively, it can utilize up to twelve Gigabit Ethernet ports to function as a central distribution switch for other Switches or Switch groups, or routers.

Flexible configuration with a mix and match optional modules : MDU-1290M (4-port mini GBIC), MDU-1290T (4-port 1000T) and MDU-1290S (4-port stacking module)
