26-Port Managed Gigabit Switch

The Black Box LPB2826A is a 1U rack-mountable Layer 2 managed switch with 24 RJ-45 ports and six SFP uplinks. It supports 10/100/1000Base-T on copper and 1000Base-X on fibre modules. The unit operates on 120 V or 230 V AC mains power and meets WEEE and RoHS environmental standards.

Network teams needing copper density

Suits administrators who require a fully managed 24-port Gigabit core with six SFP slots for aggregation or backbone links. Not intended for deployments that need PoE power on the RJ-45 ports or Layer 3 routing features.

Six shared SFP uplink slots

The six SFP expansion slots share bandwidth with the fixed copper ports, so each uplink consumes one of the 26 total port addresses. Verify that the combined copper and fibre port count matches your topology before ordering.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the switch is operating correctly after rack-mounting it?

Check the front-panel LEDs for link and activity on each of the 24 RJ-45 ports and the 6 SFP slots; a steady green light indicates a valid 10/100/1000Base-T or 1000Base-X connection.

What ships with the unit and what must I purchase separately?

The 1U rack-mountable chassis with internal power supply for 120 V AC and 230 V AC is included; SFP transceivers for the 6 shared expansion slots and rack screws are not supplied.

Should I choose the 24-port copper model or a version with more SFP uplinks?

This model provides 24 fixed Gigabit RJ-45 ports plus 6 SFP slots for fibre uplinks; no other port-count variant is offered for the LPB2826A.
