48 Ethernet Ports for Seamless Connectivity

The Cisco C1000-48FP-4X-L Ethernet Switch is equipped with 48 Ethernet ports, ensuring seamless connectivity for your network. Whether you are a small business or a large enterprise, having 48 ports allows you to connect multiple devices simultaneously, eliminating the need for additional switches or hubs. This not only simplifies your network infrastructure but also reduces costs associated with purchasing and managing additional networking equipment.

Increased Flexibility and Scalability

The 48 Ethernet ports on the Cisco C1000-48FP-4X-L Ethernet Switch provide you with increased flexibility and scalability. With a large number of ports available, you can easily connect various devices such as computers, servers, printers, IP phones, and access points. This enables your organization to expand its network as needed without worrying about running out of ports. Whether you are adding new employees, expanding your office space, or upgrading your technology, the 48 ports ensure that your network can accommodate the growth.

Efficient Traffic Management

In addition to offering a high number of Ethernet ports, this switch also features advanced traffic management capabilities. Each port on the Cisco C1000-48FP-4X-L Ethernet Switch supports Quality of Service (QoS) functionality, allowing you to prioritize certain types of network traffic. This ensures that critical applications such as VoIP calls or video conferencing receive the necessary bandwidth and are not affected by other less time-sensitive activities on the network. By efficiently managing your network traffic, this switch helps optimize performance and delivers a seamless user experience.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) Support

The Cisco C1000-48FP-4X-L Ethernet Switch also offers Power over Ethernet (PoE) support on all 48 ports. This feature eliminates the need for separate power cables for devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and IP cameras. With PoE, you can conveniently power these devices through the Ethernet cable, reducing clutter and simplifying installation. Additionally, the switch intelligently manages power allocation, ensuring that each device receives the appropriate power level based on its requirements. This not only saves energy but also protects your devices from power-related issues.

Simplified Deployment of Network Devices

The PoE support on the Cisco C1000-48FP-4X-L Ethernet Switch simplifies the deployment of network devices throughout your organization. You can easily install IP phones in various office locations without the need for nearby power outlets, providing greater flexibility in office layout and reducing installation costs. Wireless access points can be strategically positioned without worrying about power supply availability. This allows you to create a reliable and efficient network infrastructure while minimizing the time and effort required for installation.

Cost Savings and Efficiency

By utilizing PoE, you can achieve significant cost savings and improved energy efficiency. With a single Ethernet cable providing both data and power, you eliminate the need for additional electrical wiring and power adapters. This reduces installation costs and maintenance efforts associated with traditional power outlets. Moreover, PoE allows for centralized power management, enabling you to monitor and control power consumption across devices. By optimizing power usage, you can reduce energy waste and lower your organization's carbon footprint.

High-Speed Uplink Connectivity

In addition to the 48 Ethernet ports, the Cisco C1000-48FP-4X-L Ethernet Switch features four uplink ports. These uplink ports provide high-speed connectivity to connect your switch to other switches or network devices such as routers or servers. With uplink speeds of up to 10 Gigabits per second (Gbps), you can ensure fast and reliable data transfer between devices, minimizing latency and maximizing network performance.

Seamless Integration with Existing Network Infrastructure

The uplink ports on this switch allow for seamless integration with your existing network infrastructure. Whether you have older switches or modern high-speed routers, the uplink ports support a variety of connection options, including copper or fiber optic cables. This flexibility ensures that you can easily connect this switch to your network without requiring extensive changes to your current setup. It enables you to leverage the benefits of the Cisco C1000-48FP-4X-L Ethernet Switch while preserving your previous investments in networking equipment.

Enhanced Network Redundancy and Resilience

The uplink ports also contribute to enhanced network redundancy and resilience. By connecting multiple switches together, you create a redundant network architecture that ensures continuous operation even if one switch fails. The uplink ports allow for link aggregation, combining multiple links into a single logical link with increased bandwidth and improved fault tolerance. This provides a reliable and resilient network infrastructure, minimizing downtime and ensuring uninterrupted connectivity for your business-critical applications.
