Cisco SRW2016 16-Port
Highlights
● 16 high-speed ports optimized for the network core or to support bandwidth-intensive
applications
● Strong security protects network traffic to keep unauthorized users off the network
● Basic QoS helps ensure a consistent network experience and supports networked
applications including voice, video, and data storage
● Simplified, web-based management for easy installation and configuration
Product Overview
Growing businesses require cost-effective networking solutions that can scale to meet ever-
®
changing business needs. The Cisco SRW2016 16-Port Gigabit Switch (Figure 1) brings Gigabit
speeds to your users and servers, while adding a new level of intelligence and security to the
network infrastructure. The sixteen 10/100/1000 Mbps ports enable you to take advantage of the
Gigabit Ethernet interfaces shipping in the current generation of servers, workstations, and storage
devices, in addition to supporting your existing 10/100 Mbps clients. The optional Gigabit optical
interfaces allow you to expand the network as your business grows.
Network security is a top priority in any size business. Unauthorized access to the network and
mission-critical data is a constant concern. The Cisco SRW2016 is able to secure the network
through 802.1x port authentication. The 802.1x standard requires clients to authenticate
themselves before the port will pass data for them.
Businesses are recognizing the benefits of voice over IP (VoIP) and are quickly migrating their voice
services to IP-based platforms, requiring their local area networks to support both voice and data
applications. In unmanaged IP networks, bursty data sessions can disrupt voice packet delivery,
causing poor voice quality. With the enhanced QoS and traffic management features in the Cisco
SRW2016, voice data can be prioritized, helping ensure clear and reliable voice communications.
