The Cisco Catalyst 3512XL is a 12-port managed switch designed primarily for desktop use. It supports Fast Ethernet with twelve 10/100 Mbps ports, making it well-suited for small to medium-sized networks. The switch offers high performance via store-and-forward switching, which ensures the integrity of data being transferred by checking for errors before forwarding packets. This feature is important for providing a reliable connection with minimal transmission errors.
This model is part of the Cisco Catalyst 3500 series and is ideal for businesses needing a cost-effective and scalable networking solution. It includes Cisco IOS Software, allowing for advanced management and security features. The command-line interface (CLI) provides comprehensive control over the switch's configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting processes.
The Cisco Catalyst 3512XL also features one expansion slot for additional scalability, enabling the possibility of adding modules to customise your network infrastructure as required. It is equipped with a desktop form factor, ensuring it can fit into a minimal amount of space while still delivering powerful network management features. Power over Ethernet (PoE) is not supported in this unit, making it suitable for environments where PoE devices are not needed.
In terms of security, the switch supports features such as VLANs, 802.1p traffic prioritisation, and port mirroring, which ensure network traffic remains organised and secure.
