Key Features:
-
24 Gigabit Ethernet Ports: The SG102-24 offers 24 ports supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, allowing for efficient data transmission and network expansion.
-
2 Combo Mini-GBIC Slots: In addition to the standard Ethernet ports, it features two combo mini-GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) slots, enabling flexible uplink options to fiber-optic networks.
-
High Switching Capacity: With a switching capacity of 48 Gbps and a forwarding performance of 35.7 million packets per second (Mpps) for 64-byte packets, the switch ensures smooth data flow even under heavy network loads.
-
Plug-and-Play Operation: As an unmanaged switch, it requires no setup; simply connect your devices, and the switch automatically manages network traffic.
-
Quality of Service (QoS): Supports 802.1p priority-based QoS, ensuring that critical network traffic receives appropriate priority.
-
Energy Efficiency: Designed with energy-efficient technologies, the SG102-24 helps reduce power consumption, contributing to lower operational costs.
-
Compact Design: Available in both desktop and rack-mountable models, the switch fits seamlessly into various office environments.
Considerations:
-
No Advanced Features: As an unmanaged switch, it lacks advanced functionalities such as VLAN support, network monitoring, and security features found in managed switches.
-
No PoE Support: The SG102-24 does not provide Power over Ethernet (PoE), meaning it cannot power devices like IP phones or wireless access points over Ethernet cables.
Ideal Use Cases:
-
Small Office Networks: Provides reliable and high-speed connectivity for small businesses without the complexity of managed switches.
-
Cost-Effective Expansion: An affordable solution for expanding network capacity in environments where advanced features are not required.
Alternative Options:
If your network requires advanced features like VLANs, network monitoring, or PoE, consider Cisco’s managed switches, such as the Cisco SG350 Series, or look for unmanaged models with PoE support, like the Cisco SG110-24P.
