Product Overview
Growing businesses require cost-effective networking solutions that can scale to meet ever-changing business needs. The Cisco® SRW2016 16-Port Gigabit Switch (Figure 1) brings Gigabit speeds to your users and servers, while adding a new level of intelligence and security to the network infrastructure. The sixteen 10/100/1000 Mbps ports enable you to take advantage of the Gigabit Ethernet interfaces shipping in the current generation of servers, workstations, and storage devices, in addition to supporting your existing 10/100 Mbps clients. The optional Gigabit optical interfaces allow you to expand the network as your business grows.
Network security is a top priority in any size business. Unauthorized access to the network and mission-critical data is a constant concern. The Cisco SRW2016 is able to secure the network through 802.1x port authentication. The 802.1x standard requires clients to authenticate themselves before the port will pass data for them.
Businesses are recognizing the benefits of voice over IP (VoIP) and are quickly migrating their voice services to IP-based platforms, requiring their local area networks to support both voice and data applications. In unmanaged IP networks, bursty data sessions can disrupt voice packet delivery, causing poor voice quality. With the enhanced QoS and traffic management features in the Cisco SRW2016, voice data can be prioritized, helping ensure clear and reliable voice communications.
Enabling the advanced features of the Cisco SRW2016 further secures the integrity of your network. The WebView interface provides an intuitive, secure management interface, helping you better utilize the comprehensive feature set of the switch, for a better-optimized, more secure network.
• Sixteen 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet ports
