Ports

The Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch is equipped with 24 ports, making it an ideal choice for businesses and organizations that require a high level of connectivity and network flexibility. These ports allow for the connection of various devices, including computers, servers, printers, and IP phones, enabling seamless communication and data transfer within the network.

Increased Capacity

Having 24 ports on the Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch provides users with increased capacity to connect multiple devices simultaneously. This is particularly beneficial for businesses that have a large number of employees or departments requiring network access. With more ports available, users can easily expand their network infrastructure without the need for additional switches or complicated configurations.

Improved Network Performance

The 24 ports on this managed switch allow for efficient network performance by ensuring a dedicated connection for each device. With dedicated ports, there is no need to share bandwidth, reducing congestion and improving overall network speed and reliability. This is especially important for businesses that rely on real-time data transfer or require high-speed internet connectivity.

VLAN Support

The Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch offers VLAN support, allowing users to create virtual networks within their physical network infrastructure. With VLANs, businesses can segment their network into different groups based on departments, projects, or security requirements. This enhances network security and improves overall network management by controlling access and isolating traffic between different VLANs.

Simplified Network Management

With 24 ports available, the Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch simplifies network management by providing a centralized hub for connecting multiple devices. Instead of dealing with multiple switches or devices scattered throughout the network, IT administrators can easily monitor and manage all connected devices from a single point of control. This saves time and effort in troubleshooting, configuration, and maintenance tasks.

Flexibility and Scalability

The 24 ports on this managed switch offer businesses the flexibility to accommodate future expansion and growth. As the business evolves and more devices need to be connected to the network, the additional ports provide the necessary scalability. This eliminates the hassle of investing in additional switches or reconfiguring the network infrastructure when new devices or departments are added.

Cost Savings

By having 24 ports on a single switch, businesses can save on hardware costs. Instead of purchasing multiple switches to accommodate a higher number of devices, they can rely on the Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch and its ample port capacity. This reduces upfront expenses and simplifies ongoing maintenance and management, resulting in long-term cost savings.

Power Over Ethernet

The Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch features Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability, which provides both data connectivity and electrical power to compatible devices over a single Ethernet cable. This feature offers numerous benefits to users, enhancing convenience, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness.

Simplified Installation

With PoE support, the Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch simplifies the installation process by eliminating the need for separate power cables for each device. This reduces clutter and saves time during setup, particularly in environments where multiple devices need to be installed in different locations. Additionally, PoE allows for easy relocation of devices without the hassle of finding an available power outlet.

Reduced Infrastructure Costs

By utilizing PoE technology, businesses can save on infrastructure costs as there is no need for additional power outlets or electrical wiring. This is particularly advantageous in situations where installing new power lines may be impractical or costly. With PoE, devices can be conveniently powered through the Ethernet cable, making it an efficient and cost-effective solution.

Flexibility in Device Placement

With the Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch's PoE capabilities, businesses have the flexibility to deploy devices in locations where power outlets are not easily accessible. This is especially beneficial for implementing wireless access points, security cameras, or IP phones in areas such as warehouses, outdoor spaces, or ceiling-mounted installations. PoE eliminates the need to rely on nearby power sources, allowing for greater flexibility in device placement.

Centralized Power Management

With PoE support, the Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch enables centralized power management. IT administrators can conveniently monitor and control power usage for connected devices from a single interface. This allows for efficient allocation of power resources, optimizing energy consumption and reducing overall electricity costs.

Enhanced Device Reliability

Power over Ethernet provides a reliable power source for connected devices. By delivering power through the Ethernet cable, PoE eliminates the risk of individual power adapters failing or being accidentally unplugged. This enhances device uptime and reduces potential disruptions in critical operations or services that rely on uninterrupted power supply.

Scalability and Future-Proofing

The PoE feature on the Cisco SG350X-24PD-K9 Managed Switch supports various PoE standards, including IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at. This ensures compatibility with a wide range of PoE-enabled devices, including wireless access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones. By choosing a switch with PoE capabilities, businesses can future-proof their network infrastructure and easily accommodate new devices or technologies that require PoE power.
