Unified communications

The Cisco SF220-48P Ghana Switch provides QoS features to automatically prioritize delay-sensitive traffic to help you easily deploy an IP-based communication solution on a converged network. PoE+ support can enable IP cameras and videophones to be easily added to your current network. Cisco offers a complete portfolio of IP telephony and other unified communications products designed for small businesses.

Simple and flexible management

Cisco 220 Series switches are easy to deploy and use for both nontechnical users and IT professionals. These switches provide management options such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and a Command-Line Interface (CLI), besides the intuitive, web-based interface and Cisco FindIT utility.

Power over Ethernet Plus

PoE+ streamlines the deployment for wireless access points, IP telephony, and video surveillance by allowing power and data to run over a single network cable. Cisco 220 Series switches support PoE+, which provides up to 30 watts of power per port. PoE+ can enable deployments for 802.11ac wireless access points, Pan Tilt Zoom (PTZ) IP cameras, and videophones, delivering more flexibility and investment protection.

A higher level of security and intelligence

Access Control Lists (ACLs) and flow-based QoS give you more control over network performance, maintain the integrity of key business information, and enable higher network efficiency. In addition, the Cisco 220 Series provides capabilities that help you create business-class networks. These features deliver a solution to simplify the operation, increase uptime, and ultimately get your business better connected to employees, customers, and suppliers. Some primary features include:

Easy configuration and deployment

Cisco SF220-48P Ghana is designed to be easy to deploy and use by small and medium-sized businesses and the partners that manage them. The simple and intuitive web-based interfaces allow even users without extensive IT expertise to configure, manage, and troubleshoot the switch in minutes. Other ease-of-use features include:

• Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) and Link Layer Discovery Protocol – Media Endpoint Discovery (LLDP-MED). Automatically detect all the devices connected to your network. Then automatically configure the switch itself with the appropriate settings and instruct the end devices on the appropriate voice VLAN or QoS parameters to use.
• Cisco FindIT Network Discovery Utility. This feature works through a simple toolbar on the user’s web browser to discover Cisco devices on the network and display basic information, such as serial numbers and IP addresses. It aids in quicker configuration and deployment of Cisco small and midsize business products.
• The FindIT Network Manager and Probe are designed to manage Cisco 100 to 500 Series switches, routers, and wireless access points. They let you proactively manage the network instead of just reacting to events. FindIT Network Management is the perfect addition to your business’s network

Flexible network management capabilities

Cisco SF220-48P Ghana provides more flexibility for network management through the following:

• Remote management. Using SNMP, you can set up and manage all switches and other Cisco devices in your network remotely.
• Command-Line Interface (CLI). The switches can be managed using a CLI. This capability can enable scripted or automated deployment for network professionals.
• Dual image support. With the ability to maintain two images in permanent storage instead of only a single image, as is traditionally supported on smart switches, you can perform software upgrades without taking the network offline or worrying about an outage because of a bad image file. This reduces switch downtime when the firmware is being upgraded or downgraded.
• Dual configuration files support. Configure the device, validating that it is done correctly, and then save this configuration to take effect after reboot. Additionally, a mirror configuration file provides automatic backup of the latest stable configuration file.
• IPv6 support. Cisco SF220-48P Ghana provides native support for IPv6, as well as the previous IPv4 standard. As a result, you can migrate to the next generation of networking applications and operating systems without an equipment upgrade.

Reliability and performance

Cisco 220 Series switches have been tested to deliver the high availability and performance that users have come to expect from Cisco switches. The switches speed up file transfer times, keep vital business applications available, and help your employees respond more quickly to customers and each other. With enhanced QoS capabilities, the Cisco 220 Series also gives you the flexibility to manage and prioritize high-bandwidth traffic so you can easily integrate all the business communications and connectivity needs on a single converged infrastructure.

Network security

The Cisco SF220-48P Ghana switch provide new levels of security for smart switches and deliver more ways to safeguard your network.

• Support for network security applications such as IEEE 802.1X and port security can tightly limit access to specific segments of your network.
• Guest virtual LANs (VLANs) let you provide Internet connectivity to nonemployee users while isolating critical business services from guest traffic.
• Extensive ACLs can restrict sensitive portions of the network from unauthorized users and guard against network attacks.
• Security mechanisms such as broadcast/multicast/unknown unicast storm control and Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) guard can protect the network from invalid configurations or malicious intent.
• Denial-Of-Service (DOS) attack prevention helps to increase uptime in the event of a network attack.
• Protect management sessions using RADIUS, TACACS+, and support local database authentication as well as secure management communication over SSL, SSH, and SNMPv3.

IP telephony support

Cisco 220 Series switches include embedded QoS intelligence to prioritize delay-sensitive services such as voice and video. They can 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 Cisco SF220-48P Ghana switch automatically configures the device with the right VLAN and QoS parameters to prioritize voice traffic.

Optimal energy efficiency

Cisco SF220-48P Ghana is designed with Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) and Energy Detect support on all models, as well as fanless designs on selected models. These designs help you save operational expenses and reduce your environmental footprint.
