  If I'm right its a non blocking switch.
  

  The XS1920-12 has a Switching capacity of 240Gbps you divide that by 12 (number of ports) giving you 20Gb per port which you divide by 2 giving you 10Gb one way.

  Thanks, @PeterUK for the explanation of switch capacity.

  But I would like to clarify the meaning of non-blocking switch, are you referring to physical stacking?

  If yes, XS1920-12 don't support physical stacking.
