Plus, Power over Ethernet (PoE) is available with iES4028FP and iES4024GP models, adding to the cost-effectiveness of the solution.
The PoE feature removes the need for AC power adapters to each PoE enabled end point and eliminates the cost of additional electrical cabling typically required with IP phone and wireless LAN deployments. It also eliminates the need for power injectors and PoE mid-spans for powering IP devices.
Since up to 36 switches can be clustered and managed from a single IP address, system capabilities can be easily extended to meet the needs of growing companies. Additionally, multilink trunking allows bundling of multiple ports, providing higher bandwidth and redundancy.
Other system highlights include advanced Quality of Service (QoS) and security features such as 802.1x based port security and DHCP snooping. The switches support VLANs for GVRP and Voice VLAN and are compatible with IEEE 802.3af compliant end devices.
