Speed up your network.
Upgrade your 10/100 network with GbE for high-performance voice, video and data requirements.
- Access your PCs, servers, printers and other devices up to 10 times the speed of 10/100 networks.
- Match your PC NIC speeds for fast access to local data.
- Group up to four ports into a single aggregated link to increase bandwidth for critical network links.
Deploy with ease.
Use the PowerConnect 2800 Series right out of the box as an unmanaged switch or convert to a flexible web-managed network at the push of a button.
- Default setting allows you to plug a PowerConnect 2800 Series Smart LAN Switch straight to a PC for instant unmanaged GbE connectivity.
- As a second option, use the switch to lightly manage network traffic, including VLANs, Quality of Service (QoS) and remote monitoring, from a simple web-based GUI, which is ideal for remote installations without IT staff
- Advanced features, such as port mirroring for troubleshooting and intrusion detection in an easy-to-use and simple-to-manage interface can help make your network efficient and robust.
Apply smart switching.
The PowerConnect 2800 Series Smart LAN switch offers many of the same benefits as a fully managed switch without the associated complexity.
- Gigabit ports auto-negotiate with other equipment to also work at 10 or 100Mbps
- The intuitive web interface capabilities include port configuration and monitoring, prioritization and trunk configuration.
- The 2800 switch can even set up virtual LANs.
Build a right-sized unmanaged/web-managed GbE network.
The PowerConnect 2800 Series offers four different models to serve a number of small to midsize user environments.
- Deploy quiet, fanless 8- and 16-port models into small-workgroup environments.
- Connect distant networks, such as branch and remote offices, at GbE speeds with the fiber uplinks in the 24- and 48-port models.
- Build an easily scalable web-managed GbE network for growing businesses, retail stores and small educational institutions.
