configuration transfer for faster deployment or upgrade.
- Simple-to-use graphical interfaces reduce the time required to deploy,
troubleshoot, and manage the network and allow you to support sophisticated
capabilities without increasing IT head count.
- The switches also support Textview, a full Command-Line Interface (CLI)
option for partners that prefer it.
- Using Auto Smartports intelligence, the switch can detect a network device
connected to any port and automatically configure the optimal security,
Quality of Service (QoS), and availability on that port.
- Cisco Discovery Protocol discovers Cisco devices and allows devices to
share critical configuration information, simplifying network setup and
integration.
- Support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows you to set up
and manage your switches and other Cisco devices remotely from a network
management station, improving IT workflow and mass configurations.
High Reliability and Resiliency
In a growing business where availability 24 hours a day, 7 days a week is
critical, you need to assure that employees can always access the data and
resources they need. The Cisco 350 Series supports dual images, allowing you to
perform software upgrades without having to take the network offline or worry
about the network going down during the upgrade.
Strong Security
Cisco 350 Series switches provide the advanced security features you need to
protect your business data and keep unauthorized users off the network:
- Embedded Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption protects management data
traveling to and from the switch.
- Extensive Access Control Lists (ACLs) restrict sensitive portions of the
network to keep out unauthorized users and guard against network attacks.
- Guest VLANs let you provide Internet connectivity to nonemployee users
while isolating critical business services from guest traffic.
- Support for advanced network security applications such as IEEE 802.1X
port security tightly limits access to specific segments of your network.
Web-based authentication provides a consistent interface to authenticate all
types of host devices and operating systems, without the complexity of
deploying IEEE 802.1X clients on each endpoint.
- Advanced defense mechanisms, including dynamic Address Resolution Protocol
(ARP) inspection, IP Source Guard, and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) snooping, detect and block deliberate network attacks. Combinations of
these protocols are also referred to as IP-MAC port binding (IPMB).
- IPv6 First Hop Security extends the advanced threat protection to IPv6.
This comprehensive security suite includes ND inspection, RA guard, DHCPv6
guard, and neighbor binding integrity check, providing unparalleled protection
against a vast range of address spoofing and man-in-the-middle attacks on IPv6
networks.
- Time-based ACLs and port operation restrict access to the network during
predesignated times such as business hours.
- Uniform MAC address-based security can be applied automatically to mobile
users as they roam between wireless access points.
- Secure Core Technology (SCT) helps ensure that the switch is able to
process management traffic in the face of a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack.
- Private VLAN Edge (PVE) provides Layer 2 isolation between devices on the
same VLAN.
- Storm control can be applied to broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast
traffic.
- Protection of management sessions occurs using RADIUS, TACACS+, and local
database authentication as well as secure management sessions over SSL, SSH,
and SNMPv3.
- DoS attack prevention maximizes network uptime in the presence of an
attack.
Power over Ethernet
Cisco 350 Series Switches are available with up to 48 PoE ports. This
capability simplifies advanced technology deployments such as IP telephony,
wireless, and IP surveillance by allowing you to connect and power network
endpoints over a single Ethernet cable. With no need to install separate power
supplies for IP phones or wireless access points, you can take advantage of
advanced communications technologies more quickly and at a lower cost. Models
support 802.3af PoE, 802.3at PoE+, and 60 Watt PoE.
Multigigabit Performance
Network needs are changing quickly. Thanks to evolving wireless standards and
the rising number of wireless devices, keeping up with data rates and growing
traffic can be a challenge. Your traditional Ethernet infrastructure can support
speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps), but competing today requires much more
capacity. One option is completely replacing your older cabling infrastructure
and upgrading your hardware. But wouldn’t it be better to increase network speed
and traffic capacity in a way that’s quick, inexpensive, and efficient?
Cisco’s new Multigigabit Ethernet switches offer just that: an
easy-to-deploy, budget-friendly solution that allows you to increase network
speed and bandwidth using your existing cables. By partnering with other
industry leaders to form the NBASE-T Alliance, Cisco uses NBASE-T technology to
help you get more out of your existing infrastructure. Save time and money by
avoiding upgrades and extending the life of your installed cable plants. And
discover the benefits of meeting consumer demand for increased bandwidth and
speeds without a large initial investment.
Multigigabit Ethernet technology uses capabilities in your existing cabling
infrastructure to meet bandwidth requirements and provide up to five times the
performance. The technology enables intermediate data rates of 2.5 and 5 Gbps to
ease the jump between traditional rates of 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps. These
intermediate rates run on most installed cables and preserve older UTP wiring,
which is good for 802.11ac wireless LAN applications.
The technology also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) forms, including PoE+
and 60W PoE. Cisco Multigigabit Ethernet switches help you avoid having to run
multiple cables between switches and access points and let your networks welcome
next-generation traffic speeds and data rates.
Networkwide Automatic Voice Deployment
Using a combination of Cisco Discovery Protocol, LLDP-MED, Auto Smartports,
and Voice Services Discovery Protocol (or VSDP, a unique Cisco protocol),
customers can deploy an end-to-end voice network dynamically. The switches in
the network automatically converge around a single voice VLAN and QoS parameters
and then propagate them out to the phones on the ports, where they are
discovered. For example, automated voice VLAN capabilities let you plug any IP
phone (including third-party phones) into your IP telephony network and receive
an immediate dial tone. The switch automatically configures the device with the
right VLAN and QoS parameters to prioritize voice traffic.
IPv6 Support
As the IP address scheme evolves to accommodate a growing number of network
devices, the Cisco 350 Series can support the transition to the next generation
of networking and operating systems such as Windows 8, Vista, and Linux. These
switches continue to support previous-generation IPv4, allowing you to evolve to
the new IPv6 standard at your own pace and helping ensure that your current
network will continue to support your business applications in the future. Cisco
350 Series switches have successfully completed rigorous IPv6 testing and have
received the USGv6 and IPv6 Gold certification.
Advanced Layer 3 Traffic Management
The Cisco 350 Series enables a more advanced set of traffic management
capabilities to help growing businesses organize their networks more effectively
and efficiently. For example, the switches provide static LAN Layer 3 routing,
allowing you to segment your network into workgroups and communicate across
VLANs without degrading application performance.
With these capabilities, you can boost the efficiency of your network by
offloading internal traffic-handling tasks from your router and allowing it to
manage primarily external traffic and security.
Additionally, Cisco 350 models provide static Layer 3 routing features. With
these capabilities, you can minimize the need to manually configure routing
devices and simplify the ongoing operation of the network.
Power Efficiency
The Cisco 350 Series integrates a variety of power-saving features across all
models, providing the industry’s most extensive energy-efficient switching
portfolio. These switches are designed to conserve energy by optimizing power
use, which helps protects the environment and reduce your energy costs. They
provide an eco-friendly network solution without compromising performance. Cisco
350 Series switches feature:
- Support for the Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) standard, which
reduces energy consumption by monitoring the amount of traffic on an active
link and putting the link into a sleep state during quiet periods
- The latest Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs)
- Automatic power shutoff on ports when a link is down
- LEDs that can be turned off to save power
- Embedded intelligence to adjust signal strength based on the length of the
connecting cable Expansion Ports
The Cisco 350 Series provides more ports per Gigabit Ethernet switch than
traditional switch models, giving you more flexibility to connect and empower
your business. Gigabit Ethernet models offer 28 to 52 ports to give you more
value, versus the 24-port or 48-port varieties with four shared ports that’s
common in the market. The Cisco 350 Series also offers mini gigabit interface
converter (mini-GBIC) expansion slots that give you the option to add
fiber-optic or Gigabit Ethernet uplink connectivity to the switch. With the
ability to increase the connectivity range of the switches, you have more
flexibility to design your network around your unique business environment and
to easily connect switches on different floors or across the business.
