VSC8256YMR-01

This versatile VSC8256YMR-01 device can function as a 10 GbE LAN, 10G WAN, 40 GbE (4 x 10G), or even as a 1G legacy KR repeater with integrated cross-point switching for added flexibility. Whether used in switching, IP edge router connectivity, or rack mount server access, the VSC8256 excels in delivering exceptional jitter attenuation and performance
