DrayTek VigorSwitch Q2200x 2.5 Gigabit Managed Switch

The VigorSwitch Q2200x delivers multi-gigabit performance with 16 2.5GbE ports and 4 independent SFP+ 10Gbps interfaces. This Layer 2+ managed switch handles throughput demands beyond traditional 1Gbps infrastructure, making it suitable for high-speed access points, bandwidth-intensive video applications, and network attached storage deployments.

Multi-Gigabit Performance on Existing Infrastructure

The 16 2.5GbE Ethernet ports enhance core network speed while utilizing existing CAT 5E or later cabling. This makes the Q2200x an efficient upgrade path for networks deploying WiFi 6 access points like the VigorAP 1060C, eliminating the bottleneck between wireless and wired infrastructure without requiring complete cable replacement.

Layer 2+ Routing Capabilities

Layer 3 features including Static Routes, VLAN Routing, and Multi-subnet DHCP server functionality enable network segmentation and inter-VLAN communication directly through the switch. This reduces dependency on router resources and improves network efficiency for complex multi-subnet environments.

10 Gigabit SFP+ Uplink Connectivity

Four SFP+ ports provide 10Gbps uplink capacity for connecting switches, servers, and networked storage. These high-bandwidth links prevent bottlenecks in aggregation layers and support bandwidth-intensive applications across the network infrastructure.

Flexible Management Options

The Q2200x supports multiple management approaches: standalone configuration via Web Interface, centralized provisioning through VigorACS cloud platform, or DrayTek's Central Switch Management on Vigor routers. VLAN configurations can be provisioned through the router and cloned across multiple switches, significantly reducing deployment time for complex networks.

Network Security Features

Security mechanisms include 802.1X port authentication for device-level access control, DHCP Snooping to prevent rogue DHCP servers, IP Source Guard for IP spoofing protection, and Access Control Lists for granular traffic filtering. These features protect against unauthorized access and network-based attacks.

ONVIF IP Camera Management

Built-in ONVIF support provides detection and management of IP surveillance cameras. Auto-generated topology mapping and camera snapshots facilitate quick identification and troubleshooting of camera connectivity issues.
