Features and Benefits
Table 1. Features and Benefits of Cisco EtherSwitch Modules
Features Benefits
16/36 10BaseT/100BaseTX Ports Delivers up to 200 Mbps of bandwidth (full duplex) Layer 2; forwards and filters
backflow at full wire speed on each port
Autosensing on each port Detects the speed of the attached device and automatically configures the port for
10- or 100-Mbps operation
Integrated Switching Provides fewer points of management for remote and small branch offices
Support for 802.1P QoS Supports QoS based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE) class-of-service (CoS) and port-based prioritization, allowing the switch to
change the CoS settings of tagged packets on a per-port basis
802.1Q Trunking Allows the setup of separate VLANs with tagged and untagged framing; trunking is
used to save ports when creating a link between two devices implementing VLANs
802.1D Spanning Tree (a Layer 2
link-management protocol that
provides path redundancy while
preventing undesirable loops in the
network)
Simplifies network configuration and improves fault tolerance
Voice Virtual LAN (VLAN) feature
for IP Phones
Enables phones to be placed into their own VLANs without the need for end-user
intervention; a user can plug the phone into the switch, and the switch provides the
phone with the necessary VLAN information
Port-Based Reclassification for
Queues on each 10/100 that are
Configurable using a Weighted
Round Robin (WRR) Scheduler
Enables users to prioritize mission-critical traffic, such as VoIP and IP-based video
applications over regular traffic
Media Access Control (MAC)-
Based Port-Level Security
Prevents unauthorized stations from accessing the switch; Cisco fully supports the
entire set of Requests for Comments (RFCs)
Multifunction LEDs per Port for
Port Status
Provide a comprehensive and convenient visual management system
Cisco IOS Command-Line
Interface (CLI)
Provides configuration through Cisco IOS CLI and provides common user
interface for all the router functions
Multicast Management Support Offers Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping in hardware for
management support
Memory Features 4-/8-MB shared-memory architecture that is shared across all ports
SNMP Management Offers support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management
Information Base (MIB) manageable via a MIB browser
Cisco Pre-standard Power over
Ethernet (optional)
EtherSwitch with the external power chassis or internal power supply upgrades
can power Cisco IP Phones and wireless access points
Gigabit Ethernet Support:
One or Two 1000BaseT Ports
per EtherSwitch
Allows external connections to other switches and Gigabit Ethernet file servers.
Required for intra-chassis stacking of modules
