  • Layer 2 Switching: Includes support for VLANs (802.1Q), Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1D), and Class of Service (802.1p).
  • Inline Power Support: Can power Cisco IP phones directly if connected to a -48V DC power source.
  • Compact Integration: Saves rack space and power by integrating switching inside the router.
  • Optional Gigabit Uplink: Add-on GE-DCARD-ESW available for gigabit uplink capability.
  • Cisco IOS Manageability: Managed via the same Cisco IOS software used for the router.
   Specifications:
  • Ports: 16 x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (RJ-45)
  • Switching Capacity: 3.2 Gbps
  • MAC Address Table: 8,000 entries
  • VLAN Support: Up to 64 VLANs using 802.1Q
  • Power Support: Inline Power with external -48V DC (for powering IP phones)
  • Dimensions: 1.55 x 7.10 x 7.20 inches
  • Weight: ~2 lBS
