Using powerful but easy-to-configure security and traffic segmentation capabilities, you can isolate your vital business traffic from guest services and keep guests’ network sessions private from each other.
Features and benefits
The Cisco CBS350-48T-4G switch provides the advanced feature set that growing businesses require and that high-bandwidth applications and technologies demand. This switch can improve the availability of your critical applications, protect your business information, and optimise your network bandwidth to more effectively deliver information and support applications.
Ease of Management and Deployment
The Cisco CBS350-48T-4G is designed to be easy to use and manage by commercial customers or the partners that serve them, including the following features:
Cisco Business Dashboard is designed to manage Cisco Business switches, routers, and wireless access points. Cisco Business Dashboard simplifies traditional challenges in deploying and managing business networks while automating the deployment, monitoring, and lifecycle management of the network. Supports embedded probe for Cisco Business Dashboard, eliminating the need to set up a separate hardware or virtual machine on site.
The intuitive user 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 switch also supports Text view, a full Command-Line Interface (CLI) option for partners that prefer it.
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 ensure business continuity and that employees can always access the data and resources they need. The Cisco CBS350-48T-4G 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
Provide the advanced security features you need to protect your business data and keep unauthorised users off the network:
Embedded Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption protects management data traveling to and from the switch.
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 neighbour binding integrity check, providing unparalleled protection against a vast range of address spoofing and man-in-the-middle attacks on IPv6 networks.
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.
Networkwide Automatic Voice Deployment
Using a combination of Cisco Discovery Protocol, Link Layer Discovery Protocol-Media Endpoint Discovery (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 Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) and Quality of Service (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 prioritise voice traffic.
IPv6 Support
As the IP address scheme evolves to accommodate a growing number of network devices, the Cisco CBS350-48T-4G 48-port switch can support the transition to the next generation of networking. This switch continues 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. It has successfully completed rigorous IPv6 testing and have received the USGv6 and IPv6 Gold certification.
Advanced Layer 3 Traffic Management
The Cisco CBS350-48T-4G switch enables a more advanced set of traffic management capabilities to help growing businesses organise their networks more effectively and efficiently. For example, the switch provides 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.
Compact Design
The sleek and compact design for this switch provides additional deployment flexibility, including outside wiring closet installation such as retail stores, open plan offices, and classrooms without disturbing the environment.
Power Efficiency
The Cisco CBS350-48T-4G integrates a variety of power-saving features. This switch is designed to conserve energy by optimising power use, which helps protects the environment and reduce your energy costs. It provides an eco-friendly network solution without compromising performance. The switch features:
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.
Automatic power shutoff on ports when a link is down.
Embedded intelligence to adjust signal strength based on the length of the connecting cable.
Peace of Mind and Investment Protection
The Cisco CBS350-48T-4G offers the reliable performance and peace of mind you expect from a Cisco switch. A solution that has been rigorously tested to help ensure optimal network uptime to ensure business continuity. Complementary one-year access to the Cisco Small Business Support Centre for ongoing support.
