3COM® UNIFIED GIG ABIT SWITCH
KEY BENEFITS
(CONTINUED)
SECURES THE NETWORK WITH ADVANCED, STANDARDS-BASED PROTECTION
The Unified Switch provides enhanced security features to ensure your wired and wireless data is protected. Support for WEP,WPA™ and WPA2™ AES encryption helps guarantee the privacy of your wireless network data. IEEE 802.1X authentication provides secure wired and wireless network logins.
EFFORTLESSLY ROAM BETWEEN ACCESS POINTS
The architecture of the Unified Switch brings AP configurations and support directly into the switch, allowing users to move between access points with seamless mobility and no loss of connectivity. Wireless devices retain their VLAN membership and IP address, providing uninterrupted communication.
FEATURES
UNIFIED ARCHITECTURE
Central management interface› Single IP address and web GUI management and configuration for all wired Ethernet devices and wireless access points and users reduces management overhead and helps lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
Managed access point control› Centrally maintained access point settings eliminate the need to individually configure each device’s SSIDs, VLANs, access control lists and security settings.
PoE on every port› Tolly “First & Foremost” winner: full 15.4 watts of 802.3af compliant power on every port assures that every connection can provision every type of Ethernet standard
10/100/1000
VoWiFi ready› Provides ability for voice over WLAN using
CENTRALIZED WIRELESS AND RF MANAGEMENT
Centralized wireless policy› The 3Com Unified Gigabit Switch supports up to 24 access points deployed using same or different policies (security, VLAN, QoS ) for employees and guest visitors.
Automatic discovery› Automatic discovery and configuration of supported access points minimizes the installation time and configuration of the wireless network.
Fast roaming› Quick handoff of user information and authorizations enables seamless roaming with session integrity and mobility robust enough to support voice traffic.
Load balancing› System adjusts
SECURITY
IEEE 802.1X authentication › Centralized authentication control and management of all network users helps ensure that only authorized users access the network.
Rogue AP detection and mitigation (IDS)› 802.11 radio frequency (RF) scans identify unauthorized access; the switch can then take mitigation actions.
Hierarchical and secure management› Delivers tiered management access to the unified switch via HTTPS, HTTP, Telnet CLI, SSH CLI and SNMP v1, 2c and 3.
Extensive VLAN and ACL capabilities› Provides scalable security and network design, while maintaining strict security and access control throughout the network.
