Superior Manageability

Cisco IOS Software CLI support provides common user interface and command set with all Cisco routers and Cisco Catalyst desktop switches.

Switching Database Manager templates for access, routing, and VLAN deployment allow the administrator to easily maximize memory allocation to the desired features based on deployment- specific requirements.

VLAN trunks can be created from any port, using either standards-based 802.1Q tagging or the Cisco Inter-Switch Link (ISL) VLAN architecture.

Up to 1005 VLANs per switch or stack and up to 128 spanning-tree instances per switch are supported.

4000 VLAN IDs are supported.

Voice VLAN simplifies telephony installations by keeping voice traffic on a separate VLAN for easier administration and troubleshooting.

Cisco VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) supports dynamic VLANs and dynamic trunk configuration across all switches.

Cisco Group Management Protocol server functions allow a switch to serve as the

Cisco Group Management Protocol router for client switches. The IP Services image is required.

IGMP snooping provides fast client joins and leaves of multicast streams and limits bandwidth- intensive video traffic to only the requestors.

Remote Switch Port Analyzer (RSPAN) allows administrators to remotely monitor ports in a Layer 2 switch network from any other switch in the same network.

For enhanced traffic management, monitoring, and analysis, the Embedded Remote Monitoring (RMON) software agent supports 4 RMON groups (history, statistics, alarms, and events).

Layer 2 traceroute eases troubleshooting by identifying the physical path that a packet takes from source to destination.

All 9 RMON groups are supported through a SPAN port, which permits traffic monitoring of a single port, a group of ports, or the entire stack from a single network analyzer or RMON probe.

Domain Name System (DNS) provides IP-address resolution with user-defined device names.

Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) reduces the cost of administering software upgrades by downloading from a centralized location.

Network Timing Protocol (NTP) provides an accurate and consistent timestamp to all intranet switches.

Multifunction LEDs per port for port status; half-duplex and full-duplex mode; and 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T indication as well as switch-level status LEDs for system, redundant- power supply, and bandwidth utilization provide a comprehensive and convenient visual management system.

SPAN works across all the ports in a stack.

3750-48PS, 3750-24PS specifications

Cisco Systems has long been a leader in the networking industry, providing robust solutions that cater to diverse organizational needs. Among its array of products, the Cisco Catalyst 3750 series stands out, particularly the models 3750-24PS and 3750-48PS. These switches are designed for the enterprise market, delivering high performance, advanced features, and exceptional flexibility.

The Cisco Catalyst 3750-24PS is a 24-port Ethernet switch that comes equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities, allowing it to supply power to connected devices such as IP phones and wireless access points. This model supports both Layer 2 and Layer 3 operations, providing a versatile solution suitable for various network topologies. The switch boasts a 2.5 Gbps stack bandwidth, enabling seamless integration into Cisco's StackWise technology. This feature allows multiple switches to be interconnected, functioning as a single unified system, which enhances network scalability and management.

On the other hand, the Cisco Catalyst 3750-48PS features 48 Ethernet ports with PoE support, making it an excellent choice for larger deployments. This model offers enhanced connectivity options and greater power capabilities, catering to more substantial device populations within enterprises. Like its 24-port counterpart, it supports VLANs, which facilitate traffic segregation for optimal network performance.

Both models support advanced Layer 3 routing protocols, including RIP, OSPF, and EIGRP, allowing for efficient routing within the network. The Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities ensure optimal delivery of time-sensitive applications, such as voice and video, providing a seamless user experience.

Another remarkable feature of the Cisco Catalyst 3750 series is the incorporation of Cisco's Smart Install technology, which simplifies switch deployment and management. This technology automates device configuration and software upgrades, reducing the operational burden on network administrators.

Security is a priority in today’s networking environment, and the 3750 series includes numerous security features. This encompasses features like dynamic ARP inspection, DHCP snooping, and port security, which work in concert to safeguard data integrity and access controls.

In summary, the Cisco Catalyst 3750-24PS and 3750-48PS are exceptional switches that deliver a blend of performance, flexibility, and security. Their advanced features make them suitable for both small and large enterprises, effectively meeting the demands of modern networking environments while ensuring scalability and manageability.
