1.2 Product Description
High-Density, Resilient Deployment Switch Solution for Gigabit Networking of Enterprise, Campus and Data Center
For the growing Gigabit network and IoT (Internet of Things) demand, IFS has launched a new-generation Stackable Gigabit
PoE+ Switch solution, the NS4802 -24P-4S-2X, to meet the needs of IP surveillance, enterprises, telecoms and campuses for a
large- scale network deployment. T he NS4802-24P-4S-2X is Layer 2+ Managed Stackable Gigabit PoE+ Switch, which supports
both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols and hardware Layer 3 static routing capability, and provides 24 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit
Ethernet ports, 4 shared Gigabit SFP slots, 2 10G SFP+ uplink slots and another 2 dedicated 10G SFP+ stacked
interfaces for stacking the s witch. Up to 16 units, 384 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 32 10Gbps SFP+ slots can be managed by a
stacking group and you can add ports and functionality as needed.
Efficient Single IP Management
The NS4802-24P-4S-2X applies the advantage of the stacking technology to managing the stack group with one single IP
address, which helps network managers to easily manage a stack of switches instead of connecting and setting each unit one
by one. The stacking technology also enables the chassis-based switches to be integrated into the NS4802-24P-4S-2X
Managed Switch at an inexpensive cost.
Highly-reliable Stacking Ability
Through its up to 40Gbps, bi-directional high bandwidth tunnel and stacking technology, the NS4802 gives the enterprises,
service providers and telecoms flexible control over port density, uplinks and switch stack performance. The stack redundancy
of the NS4802 ensures that data integrity is retained even if one switch in the stack fails. You can even hot-swap switches
without disrupting the network, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the LAN for catering to increasing bandwidth
demands.
Cost-effective 10Gbps Uplink Capacity
10G Ethernet is a big leap in the evolution of Ethernet. The two 10G SFP+ slot of the NS4802 supports Dual-speed,
10GBASE-SR/LR or 1000BASE-SX/LX, meaning the administrator now can flexibly choose the suitable SFP/SFP+ transceiver
according to the transmission distance or the transmission speed required to extend the network efficiently. They greatly support
SMB network to achieve 10Gbps high performance in a cost-effective way because 10GbE interface usually could be available
in Layer 3 Switch but Layer 3 Switch could be too expensive to SMBs. (Small Businesses)
Solution for IPv6 Networking
By supporting IPv6 / IPv4 dual stack and plenty of management functions with easy and friendly management interfaces, the
NS4802 is the best choice for IP surveillance, VoIP and wireless service providers to connect with the IPv6 network. It also helps
the SMB to step in the IPv6 era with the lowest investment but not necessary to replace the network facilities while the ISP
constructs the IPv6 FTTx edge network.
IPv4 and IPv6 VLAN Routing for Secure and Flexible Management
To help customers stay on top of their businesses, the NS4802 not only provides ultra high transmission performance and
excellent layer 2 technologies, but also offers IPv4/IPv6 VLAN routing feature which allows crossing over different VLANs and
different IP addresses for the purpose of having a highly secured, flexible management and simpler networking application.
Robust Layer2 Features
The NS4802 can be programmed for advanced switch management function, such as dynamic port link aggregation, Q-in-Q
VLAN , Multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP) , Layer 2/4 QoS, bandwidth control and IGMP/MLD snooping . The NS4802
allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining multiple ports. It enables up to 3 groups of 6 ports for trunk maximum and
supports connection fail-over as well.
Powerful Security
The NS4802-24P-4S-2X offers comprehensive layer2 to layer4 access control list (ACL) for enforcing security to the edge. It
can be used to restrict to network access by denying packets based on source and destination IP address, TCP/UDP port
number or defined typical network applications. Its protection mechanism also comprises 802.1x Port-based and MAC -based
user and device authentication. With the private VLAN function, communication between edge ports can be prevented to
ensure user privacy.
Enhanced Security and Traffic Control
The NS4802-24P-4S-2X also provides DHCP Snooping , IP Source Guard and Dynamic ARP Inspection functions to prevent
IP snooping from attack and discard ARP packets with invalid MAC address. The network administrator can now construct
highly secured corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.
User-friendly Secure Management
For efficient management, the NS4802-24P-4S-2X managed switch is equipped with console, web and SNMP management
interfaces. With the built-in web-based management interface, the NS4802-24P-4S-2X offers an easy-to-use, platform
independent management and configuration facility. The NS4802-24P-4S-2X supports SNMP and it can be managed via any
management software based on standard of SNMP v1 and v2 protocol. For reducing product learning time, the
NS4802-24P-4S-2X offers Cisco-like command via Telnet or console port and customer doesn’t need to learn new command
from these switches. Moreover, the NS4802-24P-4S-2X offers remote secure management by supporting SSH , SSL and
SNMPv3 connection which can be encrypt ed the packet content at each session.
Flexible and Extendable Solution
The 4 mini -GBIC SFP slots built in the NS4802-24P-4S-2X support dual speed as it features 100BASE -FX and
1000BASE-SX/LX SFP (Small Form- factor Pluggable) fiber-optic modules. Now the administrator can flexibly choose the
suitable SFP transceiver according to not only the transmission distance, but also the transmission speed required. The
distance can be extended from 550 meters to 2km (multi-mode fiber) and up to above 10/20/30/40/50/70 kilometers
(single- mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for applications within the enterprise data centers and distributions.
Intelligent SFP Diagnosis Mechanism
The NS4802 supports SFP-DDM (Digital Diagnostic Monitor) function that greatly helps network administrator to easily
monitor real-time parameters of the SFP and SFP+ transceivers, such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature,
laser bias current, and transceiver supply voltage.
Centralized Power Management for Gigabit Ethernet PoE Networking
To fulfill the needs of higher power required PoE network applications with Gigabit speed transmission, the NS4802 features
high-performance Gigabit IEEE 802.3af PoE (up to 15.4 watts) and IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (up to 30 watts) on all ports. It perfectly
meets the power requirement of PoE VoIP phone and all kinds of PoE IP cameras such as IR, PTZ, speed dome cameras or
even box type IP cameras with built-in fan and heater for high power consumption.
The NS4802 ’s PoE capabilities also help to reduce deployment costs for network devices as a result of freeing from restrictions
of power outlet locations. Power and data switching are integrated into one unit, delivered over a single cable and managed
centrally. It thus eliminates cost for additional AC wiring and reduces installation time.
Built-in Unique PoE Functions for Surveillance Management
As a managed PoE Switch for surveillance network, the NS4802 features intelligent PoE Management functions:
Scheduled Power Recycling
SMTP/SNMP Trap Event Alert
PoE Schedule
Scheduled Power Recycling
The NS4802 allows each of the connected PD (Powered Device) to reboot in a specific time each week. Therefore, it will reduce
the chance of PD (Powered Device) crash resulting from buffer overflow.
SMTP/SNMP Trap Event alert
Though most NVR or camera management software offer SMTP email alert function, the NS4 802 further provides event alert
function to help to diagnose the abnormal device owing to whether or not there is a break of the network connection, loss of PoE
power or the rebooting response by PD Alive Check process.
PoE Schedule for Energy Saving
Besides being used for IP s urveillance, theNS4802 is certainly applicable to construct any PoE network including VoIP and
wireless LAN. Under the trend of energy saving worldwide and contributing to the environmental protection on the Earth, the
NS4802 can effectively control the power supply besides its capability of giving high watts power. The “PoE schedule” function
helps you to enable or disable PoE power feeding for each PoE port during specified time intervals and it is a powerful function
to help SMBs or e nterprises save power and money.

1. Before we connect the NS4802 to the other network device, we have to make sure both sides of the SFP transceivers are
with the same media type, for example: 1000BASE -SX to 1000BASE -SX, 1000Bas -LX to 1000BASE -LX.
2. Check whether the fiber -optic cable type matches with the SFP transceiver requirement.
To connect to 1000BASE-SX SFP transceiver, please use the m ulti-mode fiber cable with one side being the male
duplex LC connector type.
To c onnect to 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver, please use the single-mode fiber cable with one side being the male
duplex LC connector type.
Connect the Fiber Cable
1. Insert the duplex LC connector into the SFP/SFP+ transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device with SFP/SFP+ transceiver installed.
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP/SFP+ slot on the front of the Managed Switch. Ensure that the SFP/SFP+
transceiver is operating correctly.
4. Check the Link mode of the SFP/SFP+ port if the link fails. To function with some fiber-NICs or Media Converters, user
has to set the port Link mode to “10GForce” , “1000 Force” or “100 Force” .
Remove the Transceiver Module
1. Make sure there is no network activity anymore.
2. Remove the Fiber -Optic Cable gently.
3. Lift up the lev er of the SFP module and turn it to a horizontal position.
4. Pull out the module gently through the lever.
