Featuring 5 Fast Ethernet ports, this managed switch allows users to connect multiple devices such as computers, printers, and wireless access points effectively. Its small form factor makes it ideal for desktop use and suits a variety of environments where space is a concern.
This switch is part of Cisco’s small business range and is known for its reliability in handling basic networking tasks. As a managed switch, the SLM2005 provides advanced administrative functions, giving users control over network configurations, traffic prioritisation, and enhanced security settings. These features make it easier for businesses to manage critical applications and ensure uninterrupted network operation.
The switch is compliant with Quality of Service (QoS) standards, enabling users to prioritise traffic for time-sensitive applications such as voice and video communication. Additionally, the switch supports VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks) to segment network traffic, further enhancing security and performance by isolating certain devices or services.
Physically, the SLM2005 is designed to offer easy installation without requiring complicated setup processes. This makes it accessible for users with varying levels of technical expertise. Also, its desktop design makes it well-suited for use in environments where space efficiency is essential.
In terms of network speed, the switch integrates well within a standard Ethernet local area network and is ideal for smaller setups where high data throughput is needed but without the complexity of larger industrial-grade switches. It offers Gigabit Ethernet support via certain configurations, although it is predominantly a Fast Ethernet switch.
