Business Applications

With Cisco 220 Series Switches, you can not only build an efficient and reliable network to connect the

workforce, but also advanced solutions to deliver data, voice, and video services on a converged

infrastructure. Get the best value for your money by improving the productivity of employees. Possible

deployment scenarios include:

●

Secured desktop connectivity. Cisco 220 Series Switches can quickly and reliably connect

employees working in small offices with each other and with all of the servers, printers, and other

devices they use. With device authentication and access control, you can maintain the integrity of

key business information while keeping you employees connected and productive.

●

Flexible wireless connectivity. With PoE+ support, and comprehensive security and quality of

service (QoS) capabilities, Cisco 220 Series Switches provide a solid foundation to add business-

grade wireless to the network. You can easily move up to a cutting-edge 802.11ac wireless access

point to increase workforce productivity without worrying about power and throughput.

●

Unified communications. The Cisco 220 Series Switches provide QoS features to automatically

prioritize delay-sensitive traffic to help you easily deploy an IP-based communication solution on a

converged network. PoE+ support can enable IP cameras and videophones to be easily added to

your current network. Cisco offers a complete portfolio of IP telephony and other unified

communications products designed for small businesses. Cisco 220 Series Switches have been

rigorously tested to help ensure easy integration and full compatibility with these and other vendor

products.

Raising the Bar for Smart Switches

Smart switches are typically priced low but are limited in functionality and scalability. Cisco 220 Series

Smart Plus Switches raise the bar for the smart switches by providing additional features and

enhancements, including:

●

A higher level of security and intelligence. ACLs and flow-based QoS give you more control

over network performance, maintain the integrity of key business information, and can enable

higher network efficiency.

●

Simple and flexible management. Cisco 220 Series Switches are easy to deploy and use, not

only for small, self-installed deployment by non-IT professionals, but also for mid-scale deployment

by IT engineers. These switches provide more management options like Cisco CLI, Simple

Network Management Protocol (SNMP), Cisco Prime

™

LAN Management System (LMS)

integration, besides the intuitive, web-based interface and Cisco FindIT utility.

●

Power Over Ethernet Plus. PoE+ streamlines the deployment for wireless access points, IP

telephony, and video surveillance by allowing power and data to run over a single network cable.

In addition to PoE support on all copper ports, Cisco 220 Series Switches also support PoE+ on

selected ports, which is up to 30 watts of power per port. PoE+ can enable deployments for

802.11ac wireless access points, Pan Tilt Zoom (PTZ) IP cameras, videophones, and thin client

devices, delivering more flexibility and investment protection.
