The 3Com Switch 5500-EI 28-Port FX (3Com 3CR17181-91) is the fibre variant of the 5500-EI range, providing 24 SFP-based ports for 100BASE-X multimode or single-mode Fast Ethernet fibre connections rather than copper.
Two Gigabit SFP ports and two 10/100/1000 copper ports handle stacking, uplinks and inter-switch links, and the switch carries the same Enhanced Image feature set as the rest of the 5500-EI family: OSPF and RIP Layer 3 routing, Layer 2-4 QoS and 3Com XRN stacking.
This model suits sites running Fast Ethernet over fibre to the desk or between buildings where copper is not practical. Tech-Star is UK-based and ships worldwide. Get in touch to confirm compatibility with your fibre transceivers.
