From the Manufacturer --------------------- The Cisco ESW-540-8P is a cost-effective 8-port switch that’s designed to serve as the back of a small business network. Part of the Cisco Small Business Pro Series, this managed Ethernet switch provides wire-speed Fast Ethernet connectivity along with embedded security, quality of service, and Power over Ethernet features to meet all of a small business’s communications needs. Lit-up signals on the front of the switch allow you to easily check the status of connected devices. The eight 10/100/100 Gigabit Ethernet ports located on the rear of the ESW-540-8P help you create or extend your network and deploy advanced Power over Ethernet capabilities. Powerful Expansion The eight 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet ports on the ESW-540-8P give you the flexibility you need to interconnect a range of high-speed network devices across your network, from IP phones to IP-based surveillance cameras to additional network endpoints. Use the managed switch as your primary network hub or as an expansion gateway to a new location in your business. Included Power over Ethernet functionality gives you the ability to deploy supported devices to remote locations throughout your workplace, as these devices won’t need an additional power cord to work—that’s all handled through a single Ethernet cable. Quality Data Access An integrated Quality of Service feature allows you to manage the network traffic flowing across the ESW-540-8P to ensure maximum performance and consistency for your critical applications. By letting high-priority applications for data, video, and voice access the bandwidth they need to function correctly, the ESW-540-8P prevents disruptions to your business while allowing connected users to access the network as they normally would. Integrated security and data quality measures help ensure the privacy and consistency of your critical network traffic.Peace-of-Mind Security In addition to preserving data quality, the ESW-540-8P protects the integrity of the data on your network using a number of comprehensive security features. Support for IEEE 802.1X port security and access control lists allow you to authenticate and regulate new connections to your network to keep unwanted users away from your business-critical data. You can separate your network into sections using integrated VLAN technology, which allows you to increase internal security by keeping certain forms of traffic isolated to members of a particular segment. Comprehensive MAC address notification alerts you when a specific machine has joined or terminated its connection to your network. Simple Configuration The ESW-540-8P can be configured and managed via an embedded switch configuration utility for standalone deployments, or it can be set up with Cisco Configuration Assistant when deploying a Cisco Small Business Communications System and Small Business Pro solution. Both options include support for Cisco Smartports, Cisco Discovery Protocol, and common default configurations for smooth system deployments.
