The Cisco Catalyst 3508G XL Enterprise Edition, part number WS-C3508G-XL-EN, is a high-performance, manageable switch ideally suited for desktop deployment in enterprise environments. It features 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports, allowing fast and reliable data transfer through a wired network. Each of these ports supports speeds up to 1000 Mbps, greatly enhancing the overall capability of handling large amounts of traffic smoothly.
This switch belongs to Cisco's popular Catalyst 3500 series, meaning it inherits robust reliability and tried-and-tested performance. As a managed switch, it offers essential management functionalities such as VLAN support, SNMP, Layer 2 switching, and detailed administrative control. The device is equipped with Store-and-Forward packet switching, minimizing jitter and ensuring packets are processed efficiently.
Offering desktop form factor, this switch is designed for use in compact setups without compromising performance. The Enterprise Edition of this model brings advanced software features such as support for IGMP snooping, which helps better manage the flow of multicast traffic across the network, and QoS (Quality of Service) prioritization, allowing critical traffic to take precedence. This helps to optimise the distribution of network resources, ensuring high-performance delivery for key systems and applications.
Additionally, security within the network is enhanced through Access Control Lists (ACLs), enabling the restriction of certain types of data by approved users. This gives IT administrators robust control allowing them to protect key resources from unauthorised access while still maintaining network agility.
