Questions about this item

How do I confirm the 36 10/100/1000 ports and 8 Smart Rate ports are passing traffic after configuration?

Check the front-panel port LEDs for link and activity on each connected port; then use the management interface to review port counters and error statistics for the 10/100/1000 and 1/2.5/5/10GBase-T interfaces.

What ships with the switch and what must be sourced separately for the SFP uplinks?

The switch ships with the chassis, rack-mount brackets and power cord; SFP transceivers for the 4 combo Gigabit SFP slots and any 40G modules for the module slot are not included and must be purchased separately.
