The Cisco SRW2024P 24-Port Gigabit Switch means that you can expand your network securely. Web-based configuration of the switch is secured using SSL. User access is verified using 802.1X security with a RADIUS authentication mechanism & can also be controlled using MAC-based filtering. Extensive quality of service (Qo S) features make the solution ideal for real-time applications such as voice & video. The four priority queues, together with the weighted round-robin & strict priority scheduling techniques, facilitate efficient coexistence of real-time traffic with data traffic, allowing each to meet its Qo S needs. Intelligent broadcast & multicast storm control minimize & contain the effect of these types of traffic on regular traffic. Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping limits bandwidth-intensive video traffic to only the requestors without flooding all users. Incoming traffic can be policed & outgoing traffic can be shaped, allowing you to control network access & traffic flow. Other features of the Cisco SRW2024P allow you to expand & grow your network of switches. Link aggregation allows multiple high-bandwidth trunks between switches to be set up. This also provides reliability, in that the system continues to operate if one of the links breaks. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Fast STP, & Rapid STP (RSTP) allow you to build a mesh of switches, increasing the availability of the system. Automatic load sensing in the power control circuitry automatically detects Power over Ethernet (Po E) on the access point before providing power. Power feeding of Ethernet is limited for fixed 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports. The switch can provide maximum output power per Po E port. Each port has independent overload & short-circuit protection, with LED indicators for power status. The switch also supports IEEE802.3af MIB for Po E, IEEE 802.1d STP, IEEE 802.1w RSTP, Fast Linkover, & cable diagnostics. ...
