Cisco SRW2024P - Discontinued

.Reliable, Intelligent Switching for Growing Businesses

Linksys SRW2024P - Highlights

• 24 high-speed ports optimized for the network core or to support bandwidth-intensive applications
• Power over Ethernet easily and cost-effectively powers wireless access points, video cameras, and other network-connected endpoints
• Enhanced QoS helps ensure a consistent network experience and supports networked applications including voice, video, and data storage
• Simplified, web-based management for easy installation and configuration
  

The Linksys SRW2024P 24-Port Gigabit Switch allows you to expand your network securely. Web-based configuration of the switch is secured using SSL. User access is verified using 802.1X security with a RADIUS authentication mechanism and can also be controlled using MAC-based filtering.

Extensive quality of service (QoS) features make the solution ideal for real-time applications such as voice and video in the Linksys SRW2024P. The four priority queues, together with the weighted round-robin and strict priority scheduling techniques, facilitate efficient coexistence of real-time traffic with data traffic, allowing each to meet its QoS needs. Individual users or applications can be prioritized above others using various class of service options - by port, Layer 2 priority (802.1p), and Layer 3 priority (type of service [ToS] or differentiated services code point [DSCP[). Intelligent broadcast and multicast storm present  in the Linksys SRW2024P control minimize and contain the effect of these types of traffic on regular traffic. Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping limits bandwidth-intensive video traffic to only the requestors without flooding all users. Incoming traffic can be policed and outgoing traffic can be shaped, allowing you to control network access and traffic flow.

Other features of the Linksys SRW2024P allow you to expand and grow your network of switches. Link aggregation allows multiple high-bandwidth trunks between switches to be set up. This also provides reliability, in that the system continues to operate if one of the links breaks. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Fast STP, and Rapid STP (RSTP) allow you to build a mesh of switches, increasing the availability of the system. The rich features of the WebView management software include Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), Remote Monitoring (RMON), Telnet, and HTTP management options, allowing you to flexibly integrate and manage these devices in your network.

Automatic load sensing in the power control circuitry in the Linksys SRW2024P automatically detects Power over Ethernet (PoE) on the access point before providing power. Power feeding of Ethernet is limited for fixed 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports. The switch can provide maximum output power per PoE port up to 15.4W on 12 ports or 7.5W on 24 ports simultaneously. Each port has independent overload and short-circuit protection, with LED indicators for power status. The switch also supports IEEE802.3af MIB for PoE, IEEE 802.1d STP, IEEE 802.1w RSTP, Fast Linkover, and cable diagnostics.
