Cisco CBS250 Managed L3 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) 1U

At a low cost, you can create a dependable, user-friendly business network.

Networking is essential in every company's journey, from connectivity to cloud applications.

Reliability, security, and cost remain important priorities, even as continuing administration and operations add complexity that requires time and resources.

Cisco Business is a line of low-cost wireless access points, switches, and routers developed specifically for small enterprises.

The portfolio, which is managed via the Cisco Business Dashboard and mobile app, delivers a straightforward and dependable experience.

The Cisco Business Dashboard makes it easier to set up and run business networks by automating network setup, network monitoring, and network lifecycle management.

Cisco Business 250 series intelligent switches

The Cisco Corporate 250 Series is the next generation of low-cost smart switches, combining great performance and durability with a comprehensive set of capabilities required for a solid business network.

At a lower cost than fully managed switches, these switches give extensive management options, complete security capabilities, and Layer 3 static routing features much beyond those of an unmanaged or consumer-grade switch.

Cisco Business 250 Series Smart Switches are a great value when you need a reliable way to share online resources and connect computers, phones, and wireless access points.

Applications for business

Cisco Business 250 Series switches can meet your business needs, whether you need basic, high-speed connections for your computers and servers or a complete voice, data, and wireless technology solution.

Desktop connections at high speeds

The Cisco Business 250 Series switches may link employees working in small workplaces to one another as well as to all printers, servers, and other networking devices swiftly and securely.

High performance and dependable connectivity aid in the acceleration of file transfers and data processing, the improvement of network uptime, and the retention of your employees' productivity.

Flexible wireless connections: Cisco Business 250 Series switches work with Cisco and third-party wireless solutions to expand the reach of your network.

These switches, which include security features, Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN), and QoS, are the ideal foundation for adding enterprise-grade wireless solutions to a network.

Because each Ethernet port can provide up to 30W of power, you can quickly set up Cisco Business Wireless access points to help your employees work more efficiently.

Communications Unified

The Cisco Business 250 Series includes QoS features that allow you to prioritize delay-sensitive network traffic and consolidate all of your communications solutions, such as IP telephony and video surveillance, onto a single Ethernet network. Cisco offers a comprehensive suite of IP telephony and unified communications technologies for small businesses. The Cisco 250 Series switches have been tested thoroughly to make sure they work well with these and other products from other vendors and are easy to set up.

Advantages and characteristics

Smart switches in the Cisco Business 250 Series have all the features needed to build a basic enterprise-class network for a low price.

Simple configuration and administration

Small businesses or their partners are intended to be easy to deploy and use by small businesses or their partners.

The Cisco Business Dashboard is intended for the administration of Cisco business switches, routers, and wireless access points.

It allows you to simply change the interface and widgets to manage your network more effectively.

The Cisco Business 250 Series switches have embedded probes for Cisco Business Dashboard, eliminating the requirement for a separate hardware or virtual machine to be installed on-site.

The Cisco Network Plug and Play solution offers a simple, secure, consistent, and integrated offering to simplify new device rollouts or deliver updates to an existing network.

With a near-zero-touch deployment experience, the solution delivers a uniform method for providing Cisco routers, switches, and wireless devices.

Modern online user interfaces that have been revamped save time when it comes to network deployment, troubleshooting, and management.

Configuration wizards simplify the most common configuration chores and provide the best network setup and management tool for anyone.

Dependability and performance: Cisco Business 250 Series switches have been tested to give you the excellent performance and reliability you'd expect from a Cisco switch while also assisting you in avoiding costly downtime.

The switches speed up networks that are slow and sluggish, keep important business apps online, and let your employees respond faster to customers and to each other.

You can cover all of your business communications and connection demands while lowering the total cost of ownership of your technological infrastructure with a network built on Cisco Business 250 Series switches.

On some models, the Cisco Business 250 Series switches also enable 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks, allowing you to design a high-performance, future-ready network to serve your thriving business.

Static Routing on Layer 3: This feature enables you to divide your network into independent workgroups and communicate across VLANs while maintaining application performance.

So, you can use switches to handle internal routing while your router handles external traffic and security. This makes your network run more efficiently.

Power over Ethernet (PoE): The Cisco Business 250 Series switches support PoE+ on Gigabit Ethernet versions.

This feature enables the implementation of IP telephony, wireless, video surveillance, and other applications using a single network line, eliminating the need for a separate power supply or wiring. Up to 30W of power per port makes it perfect for installations of 802.11ac wireless access points, Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) IP cameras, videophones, and thin client devices, allowing for greater flexibility and investment protection.

Network safety

Cisco Organization 250 Series switches deliver the security and network management tools required to keep your business secure, keep unauthorized users off the network, and protect your business data.

The switches have built-in network security to reduce the chance of a security breach. They have IEEE 802.1X port security to control access to the network, DoS attack prevention to keep the network running during an attack, and extensive Access Control Lists (ACLs) to keep unauthorized users out of sensitive network areas and protect against network attacks.

A design that is adaptable and compact

The sleek and small design gives you more options for where to put it. For example, you can put it outside wiring closets in retail stores, open-plan offices, and schools without disturbing the area.

An environmentally friendly option

Cisco Business 250 Series switches are built to be energy efficient and environmentally friendly without sacrificing performance. They help you save energy by making the most of the power you use. This is good for the environment and saves you money.

Among the energy-saving features are

Support for the IEEE 802.3az standard, which reduces the amount of energy used by keeping an eye on how much traffic is on an active link and putting it to sleep when there isn't much going on.

When a link fails, the ports' power is automatically turned off.

Most of them don't have fans, which cuts down on power use, makes them more reliable, and makes them run more quietly.
