The Cisco Meraki MS425-16 extends cloud management across the aggregation layer for medium-size, high performance, critical campus deployments with 10G fiber aggregation switches. Ideal for mixed datacenter top-of-rack environments, this model provides 40G QSFP+ uplinks with horizontal (front-port) stacking capabilities. Cisco Meraki's aggregation switches are built from the ground up to be easy to manage without compromising any of the power and flexibility traditionally found in enterprise-class switches.
