Notes

Cisco-class switches that make advanced network

services and IP Communications easy to manage

for businesses from 20 to 250 employees.

This series of Layer 2 managed Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet switches

offers nonblocking, wire-speed performance that provides a secure network

foundation optimized for data, wireless, and voice. Built-in advanced

security features help ensure that all devices on the network are protected.

An intuitive GUI simplifies setting up, running, and troubleshooting a network.

With Cisco Smartports technology, mission-critical traffic is prioritized, voice

conversations are clear, bandwidth-intensive video traffic does not impact other

applications on the network, and your wireless network is secure. Integrated

intelligence helps detect device and network problems before they impact

your business.

The Cisco Catalyst Express 500 Series switches also offer Power over Ethernet

(PoE), reducing the cost and complexity of IP Communications and wireless

LAN deployments by supplying power and Ethernet connectivity over the same

Category 5 cables. This eliminates the need to provide separate power outlets

and cables for wireless access points, closed-circuit TV cameras, and IP phones.
