Key Features & Benefits:

• High-Performance Switching Engine: Engineered for efficiency, this switch delivers a robust forwarding capacity of 77.38 million packets per second (mpps) for 64-byte packets, ensuring it can handle high volumes of small, latency-sensitive traffic like VoIP and video streams without delay. Its 104 Gbps of switching fabric provides full, non-blocking bandwidth across all ports, guaranteeing consistent performance for data-intensive applications.
• Simplified, Cloud-Ready Management: Gain enterprise-grade control without the complexity. Manage the switch through an intuitive web interface or use the cloud-based Cisco Business Dashboard for centralized monitoring and configuration of your entire network from anywhere. Features like Network Plug and Play enable quick, zero-touch deployment, drastically reducing setup time.
• Scalable, Flexible Connectivity: With 48 RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 4 dedicated SFP ports, this switch provides ample high-speed connectivity for workstations, servers, and wireless access points, with flexible options for fiber uplinks to the network core. The 3MB packet buffer helps prevent data loss during traffic bursts, ensuring smooth performance.
• Enhanced Security & Quality of Service: Protect your network with advanced features like Access Control Lists (ACLs), port security, and 802.1X authentication. Use VLANs to segment network traffic for security and efficiency. Comprehensive QoS mechanisms prioritize critical business applications like voice and video, ensuring optimal user experience.
• Energy-Efficient and Reliable Design: Built for 24/7 operation with a high MTBF of 1.45 million hours. Its advanced power design consumes a maximum of ~38.8W under load and as little as ~13.4W at idle, generating minimal heat (132.39 BTU/hr). The single, quiet fan (29.7 dBA) and compact, lightweight chassis make it ideal for office environments.

Ideal For:

• Small to Medium-Sized Businesses (SMBs)
• Campus Branch Offices and Remote Sites
• Schools and Educational Institutions
