MODEL- WS-CE500-24PC VENDOR- CISCO
FEATURES- Cisco Catalyst Express 500-24PC Switch
Twenty-four 10/100 PoE ports for desktop, wireless, IP telephony, or
closed-circuit TV camera connectivity. Also includes two
10/100/1000BASE-T or SFP ports for uplink or server connectivity.
Cisco Catalyst Express 500 Series switches deliver Cisco class
networking tailored for businesses with up to 250 employees.
Powered by Cisco Systems technology, this family of Layer 2-managed
Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet switches offers nonblocking,
wire-speed performance that provides a secure network foundation
optimized for data, wireless, and voice. Built-in advanced security
features help ensure that your devices and network are protected.
The intuitive GUI simplifies setting up, running, and
troubleshooting a network. Embedded Cisco Smartports with preset
Cisco recommended network configurations, quality of service (QoS),
security, and multicast settings allow for transparent integration
of data, video, IP Communications, and wireless LAN applications.
With Cisco Smartports technology, mission-critical traffic is
prioritized; voice conversations are clear; bandwidth-intensive
video traffic does not impact other applications on the network-and
your wireless network is secure. Integrated intelligence within the
switch helps you detect device and network problems before they
impact your business.
You can manage each switch with the embedded GUI device manager, or
manage your network with Cisco Network Assistant, an advanced PC-
based network management application. Cisco Network Assistant
offers centralized management and configuration of Cisco switches
and other Cisco devices such as routers and wireless access points.
With Cisco Network Assistant, in addition to configuring multiple
switches at a time, you can configure Cisco wireless access points,
and invoke the device manager on Cisco routers and access points.
Software upgrades on Cisco switches, routers, and wireless access
points are as easy as a drag-and-drop process. You can download
Cisco Network Assistant (available at no cost) from the Cisco
website http://www.cisco.com/go/cna.
The Cisco Catalyst Express 500 Series switches also offer Power over
Ethernet (PoE), reducing the cost and complexity of IP
Communications and wireless LAN deployments. PoE is an advanced
technology that allows a switch to supply power and provide
Ethernet connectivity at the same time over Category 5 cable to
inline power devices, such as wireless access points, closed-
circuit TV cameras, and IP phones. The PoE ports eliminate the cost
and complexity of running additional power outlets or cables to
inline power devices.
* PERFORMANCE
With nonblocking, wire-speed switching on all ports, the Cisco Catalyst
Express 500 Series offers 10-/100-Mbps ports for desktop, wireless
access point, printer, and IP phone connectivity, and 10/100/1000BASE-T
or SFP ports for server or backbone connectivity. With head-of-line
blocking prevention, a heavily congested port will not affect
performance on other ports on the switch.
* EASY TO USE
The Cisco Catalyst Express 500 Series switches are designed for ease of
use. The switch is initialized through the GUI device manager-no console
