The Cisco Catalyst Express 500-24PC is a 24-port managed switch designed for small to medium-sized businesses, offering robust networking capabilities in a desktop form factor. This switch provides Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, which can power devices such as IP phones and wireless access points without the need for additional power adapters. Each of the 24 ports can deliver up to 15.4W of power, complying with the IEEE 802.3af PoE standard.
It features a comprehensive set of security mechanisms that ensure protection against unauthorised access. The switch supports VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks), which help in segmenting the network to enhance performance and security. Additionally, it is equipped with Quality of Service (QoS) features, enabling prioritisation of critical network traffic, such as voice and video data.
Administrators can further manage the device using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), allowing remote monitoring and configuration. The switch also includes a web-based user interface, making it easy for IT staff to set up and monitor the network without requiring extensive command-line expertise. The desktop form factor ensures it can be easily positioned in office environments where space is limited, and the device operates with quiet efficiency, thanks to its fanless design.
This device follows Cisco's standards of quality and reliability, backed with security and control features that are critical for a growing business. The overall build and functionality cater to both performance demands and flexible deployment.
