Advanced Features for Demanding Environments, at an Affordable Price
Your business is growing, and that means more customers, more opportunities, and more attention on your company. The only problem: Your network was built for a smaller operation. As you add more devices, applications, and users, your IT environment will become increasingly difficult and expensive to manage. Even worse, as the network becomes more complex and overloaded, your users are likely to see sluggish performance and even outages.
With more customers and employees depending on your business than ever before, a slow or unreliable network is simply not an option. You need an IT backbone that provides excellent performance, nonstop availability, and advanced security. The ideal network will be easy to manage, even as it supports more advanced features, and will be designed to grow with your company. And it is available at a price you can afford.
Cisco ESW2 Series Advanced Managed Switches
The Cisco® ESW2 Series Switches are a new line of switches optimized for data center out-of-band (OOB) management deployment. The switches offer capabilities for hot/cold aisle airflow deployment options in the data center, –48V DC or AC powered options, redundant fans, stackable switch options for higher resiliency, high performance 10 Gig interfaces, and lower operating expenses (OpEX) with numerous power efficiency optimizations. The airflow options are flexible and field changeable to be configured as either front-to-rear or rear-to-front. The removable fans are hot-swappable, maximizing the network uptime.
ESW2 switches provide a solid foundation for your current business applications, as well as those applications you are planning for the future. They provide the advanced capabilities you need to support a more demanding network environment, at an affordable price. At the same time, these switches are easy to deploy and manage, without a large IT staff. The switches also protect your technology investment with an enhanced warranty and dedicated technical support. Overall, the Cisco ESW2 Series provides the ideal technology foundation for a growing business.
The Cisco ESW2 550X Series Stackable Managed Switches (Figure 1) are stackable managed Ethernet switches. These switches provide 48 ports of Gigabit Ethernet connectivity with 10 Gigabit uplinks.
Cisco ESW2 550X Series Switches are designed to protect your technology investment as your business grows. Unlike switches that claim to be stackable but have elements that users must administer and troubleshoot separately, the Cisco ESW2 550X Series provides true stacking capability, allowing you to configure, manage, and troubleshoot multiple physical switches as a single device and more easily expand your network. The Cisco ESW2 550X Series Switches stack with the Cisco 500X series of switches, delivering POE+ and additional port densities in the same stack.
A true stack delivers a unified data and control plane, in addition to management plane, providing flexibility, scalability, and ease of use, because the stack of units operates as a single entity, constituting all the ports of the stack members.
