High performance and reliability

All Cisco SG 300-10SFP 8-Port Gigabit SFP Switches have been rigorously tested to deliver the high availability and performance you expect from a Cisco switch. The solutions speed up file transfer times and improve slow, sluggish networks, while keeping your vital business applications available and preventing costly downtime. As a managed switching solution, the Cisco SG 300-10SFP also gives you the flexibility to manage and prioritise high-bandwidth traffic such as voice. That means you can empower your employees with state-of-the-art communication and productivity solutions, without draining the performance of your other business applications.

Secure Desktop Connectivity

The Cisco SG 300-10SFP Switch can simply and securely connect employees working in small offices with each other and with all of the servers, printers, and other devices they use. High performance and reliable connectivity helps speed file transfers and data processing, improves network uptime, and keeps your employees connected and productive. Additionally, the Cisco SG 300-10SFP Switch provides a high level of security and give you fine-grained control to safeguard your network from unauthorised users. Advanced security features include:

• Embedded security to protect management data traveling to and from the switch and encrypt network communications
• Extensive access control lists (ACLs) to restrict sensitive portions of the network from unauthorised users and guard against network attacks
• Guest virtual LANs (VLANs) to let you provide Internet connectivity to nonemployee users while isolating critical business services from guest traffic
• Support for advanced network security applications such as IEEE 802.1X port security to tightly limit access to specific segments of your network

Unified Communications

As a managed network solution, the Cisco SG 300-10SFP Switch provides the performance and advanced traffic-handling intelligence you need to deliver all communications and data over a single network. Cisco offers a complete portfolio of IP telephony and other unified communications products designed for small businesses. Cisco SG 300-10SFP Switchs have been rigorously tested to help ensure easy integration and full compatibility with these and other products, providing a complete small business solution.

IP Telephony Support

Cisco SG 300-10SFP Switches include embedded QoS intelligence to prioritise delaysensitive services such as voice and video, simplify unified communications deployments, and help ensure consistent network performance for all services. For example, automated voice VLAN capabilities let you plug any IP phone (including third-party phones) into your IP telephony network and receive an immediate dial tone. The switch automatically configures the device with the right VLAN and QoS parameters to prioritise voice traffic.

Highly Secure Guest Connectivity

A Cisco SG 300-10SFP Switch let you extend highly secure network connectivity to guests in a variety of settings, such as a hotel, an office waiting room, or any other area open to nonemployee users. Using powerful but easy-to-configure security and traffic segmentation capabilities, you can isolate your vital business traffic from guest services and keep guests' network sessions private from each other.
