Introduction

The Cisco Sx350 Series Fully Managed Switches are standalone switches that provide Fast Ethernet (FE)/Gigabit Ethernet (GE) and Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) 2 Combo + PoE ports on specific models. The switches come with new generation highly-integrated packet processor for Carrier Ethernet and Small-Medium Enterprise (SME) applications with full wire-speed performance.

The web-based utility allows you to deploy and manage your network efficiently. Setting up and troubleshooting can be done easily with easy-to-use tools such as Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), FindIT, and Cisco Smartports, which let your network automatically detect and configure all connected Cisco devices.

This article aims to show the features of the Sx350 Series Fully Managed Switches.
