About Cisco SF300-24
A stellar addition to your business, the SF300-24 Managed 24-Port 10/100 Ethernet Switch from Cisco is a feature-packed, 24-Port Fast Ethernet switch for your network. Beyond these ports, this switch also features four Gigabit Ethernet ports, two of which can operate as either mini-GBIC Ethernet or as standard RJ-45 Ethernet gigabit connections. With these particular ports, you can connect gigabit or fiber optic devices to the switch.
Aside from hardware, this switch is easy to setup and configure while still offering you advanced features for more demanding network applications. The switch features QoS so you can prioritize more important network traffic, such as VoIP or streaming video. In addition, with the switch you can setup access control lists to restrict sensitive portions of the network from unauthorized users. You can also setup guest VLANs, granting non-employees limited access to your network. As a safeguard for your business operations, this switch separates your more important network traffic from the traffic on your guest VLANs.
In addition, the switch features static routing/Layer 3 switching between VLANs. In turn, this allows you to segment your network into separate workgroups and communicate across VLANs without degrading the performance of applications run on these VLANs. You can also use this or multiple switches to manage your internal network while devoting your network's router to external traffic and security. Also, in terms of management, this switch supports IPv6, so as more products and services switch to this Internet Protocol, you'll be ready.
Cisco SF300-24 Features
- The SF300-24 Switch has been rigorously tested to deliver the high availability and performance you expect from Cisco. The solutions speed up file transfer times and improve slow, sluggish networks, while keeping your vital business applications available and preventing costly downtime
- High Performance and Reliability: The SF300-24 Switch is designed to be easy to use and manage by small businesses and the partners who serve them
- Fast, Easy Setup and Configuration: The SF300-24 Switch uses Cisco Discovery Protocol to automatically detect all the devices connected to your network, so as to automatically configure itself for the appropriate connectivity and security
- Strong Security: Embedded security protects management data traveling to and from the switch and encrypts network communications
- Strong Security: You can setup extensive access control lists (ACLs) to restrict sensitive portions of the network from unauthorized users and guard against network attacks
- Strong Security: You can setup guest virtual LANs (VLANs) so as to provide Internet connectivity to nonemployee users while isolating and separating critical business services from guest traffic
- Strong Security: The Switch supports advanced network security applications such as IEEE 802.1X port security to tightly limit access to specific segments of your network
- Expansion Ports: The SF300-24 Switch also offers four Gigabit Ethernet ports, two of which are mini gigabit interface converter (mini-GBIC) expansion slots that give you the option to add fiber-optic or Gigabit Ethernet uplink connectivity to the switch
- IP Telephony Support: The SF300-24 Switch includes embedded QoS intelligence to prioritize delay-sensitive services such as voice and video, simplify unified communications deployments and help ensure consistent network performance for all services
- Advanced Network Management Capabilities: Static routing/Layer 3 switching between VLANs: This capability allows you to segment your network into separate workgroups and communicate across VLANs without degrading application performance
- Advanced Network Management Capabilities: IPv6 support: As the IP network addressing scheme evolves to accommodate more devices, you can make sure that your network is ready. The SF300-24 Switch provides native support for IPv6 as well as the previous IPv4 standard
- Advanced Network Management Capabilities: IPv6 support: Dual image support: With the ability to maintain dual images of your switches, you can perform software upgrades without having to take the network offline and without worrying about an outage during an upgrade
- Advanced Network Management Capabilities: IPv6 support: Remote management: Using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), you can set up and manage all switches and other Cisco devices in your network remotely, instead of having to directly connect to them
- Optimal Energy Efficiency: The SF300-24 Switch optimizes power use to protect the environment and reduce energy costs, without compromising performance
- Optimal Energy Efficiency: The SF300-24 Switch uses the latest application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), using low-power 65-nanometer technology (these chipsets allow for lower power consumption and thinner, more efficient designs)
- Optimal Energy Efficiency: The SF300-24 Switch features an automatic power shutoff on PoE ports when a link is down
- Optimal Energy Efficiency: The SF300-24 Switch utilizes embedded intelligence to adjust signal strength based on cable length
- Multiple Languages: The SF300-24 Switch is available in seven languages: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese and simplified Chinese. All product user interfaces and documentation are translated, giving you the ability to select your preferred language
