420 Series L3 Managed Partial Multi-gig Switch with Full PoE | 16 + 4 Front Port
The Araknis 420 Series sits between the entry-level 320 and the advanced 620, combining fully managed Layer 2 and Lite Layer 3 routing with entry-level multi-gig performance. Static and inter-VLAN routing happen locally on the switch instead of relying entirely on the router, and 2.5Gbps multi-gig throughput on select ports makes the 420 Series a strong fit for AV-over-IP, Wi-Fi 6 access points, and multi-gig ISP service. Quad SFP+ transceiver ports handle 10G fiber uplinking, and redesigned cooling fans keep noise down even under a full PoE load.
16-Port Configuration with Front-Facing Ports
This 16-port model routes RJ-45 connections to the front of the switch for the cleanest cable path in your rack or enclosure.
Managed Through OvrC
Every 420 Series switch reports into OvrC for cloud-based remote configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting, backed by a 5-year limited warranty on parts and labor.
