Linksys SRW208G

Linksys SRW208G Overview:

8-port 10/100 Ethernet Switch with WebView and Expansion Slots Secure, reliable, intelligent, managed switching for your growing business

Growing businesses require cost effective, networking solutions that can scale with ever changing business needs. The Linksys SRW208G WebView managed switch brings a whole new level of intelligence and security to the network infrastructure. The combination of its intelligence and small size make it ideal for a conference room or training room where security and uptime are important. It offers a Gigabit copper or optical interface for connecting to the core network.

Network security is a top priority in any size business. Most business data networks, large and small, are unsecured. Unauthorized access to the network and mission critical data is a constant concern. The SRW208G is able to secure the network through 802.1X port authentication and MAC Filtering. 802.1X requires client to authenticate themselves before the port will pass data.

Businesses are recognizing the benefits of doing Voice over IP (VoIP) and are quickly migrating their voice services to IP based platforms, requiring their local area networks to support both voice and data applications. In unmanaged IP networks, bursty data sessions can disrupt voice packet delivery, causing poor voice quality. With the enhanced QoS and traffic management features in the SRW208G, voice data can be prioritized, ensuring clear and reliable voice communications.

Enabling the SRW208G advanced features further secures the integrity of your network. The WebView interface provides an intuitive, secure management interface enabling you to better utilize the comprehensive feature-set of the switch, resulting in a better optimized, more secure network.
