Cisco SG350-10SFP 10-port Gigabit Managed SFP Switch

Features of Cisco SG350-10SFP 10-port Gigabit Managed SFP Switch

The Cisco SG350-10SFP is a 10-port Gigabit Managed SFP Switch. It is part of the Cisco 350 Series of switches designed for small businesses or branch office networks. Here are some key features and details about the switch:

1. Port Configuration: The switch has a total of 10 ports, all of which support Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. These ports are SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) slots, which means they can be used with a variety of SFP modules for different types of fiber or copper connectivity.

2. Managed Switch: The SG350-10SFP is a managed switch, which allows for greater control and configuration options compared to unmanaged switches. It supports features like VLANs, QoS (Quality of Service), link aggregation, and SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for monitoring and management.

3. Layer 2 Functionality: The switch operates at Layer 2 of the OSI model, providing functionalities like MAC address learning, forwarding, and filtering. It supports Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) for loop prevention and IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging for network segmentation.

4. Performance and Throughput: The switch provides non-blocking, wire-speed performance on all ports, which means it can handle simultaneous data transfers on all ports at full Gigabit speeds. It supports a switching capacity of up to 20 Gbps.

5. PoE (Power over Ethernet): It's worth noting that the SG350-10SFP does not support PoE. If you require Power over Ethernet functionality, you would need to consider other models in the Cisco 350 Series that include PoE support.

6. Management Options: The switch can be managed through a web-based graphical user interface (GUI) or a command-line interface (CLI). It also supports Cisco FindIT Network Discovery Utility for simplified setup and configuration.

7. Security Features: The SG350-10SFP offers various security features, including port security, 802.1X network access control, and Access Control Lists (ACLs) to help protect the network from unauthorized access and potential threats.

8. IPv6 Support: The switch is compatible with IPv6, the latest version of the Internet Protocol, enabling future-proofing and seamless integration with IPv6 networks.
