Cisco Catalyst Express 500
Series Switches

Cisco® Catalyst® Express 500
Series switches deliver Cisco class networking tailored
for businesses with up to 250 employees. Powered by
Cisco Systems® technology, this family of Layer
2-managed Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet switches
offers nonblocking, wire-speed performance that provides
a secure network foundation optimized for data,
wireless, and voice. Built-in advanced security features
help ensure that your devices and network are protected.
The intuitive GUI simplifies
setting up, running, and troubleshooting a network.
Embedded Cisco Smartports with preset Cisco recommended
network configurations, quality of service (QoS),
security and multicast settings allow for transparent
integration of data, video, IP Communications, and
wireless LAN applications. With Cisco Smartports
technology, mission-critical traffic is prioritized;
voice conversations are clear; bandwidth-intensive video
traffic does not impact other applications on the
network-and your wireless network is secure. Integrated
intelligence within the switch helps you detect device
and network problems before they impact your business.
You can manage each switch with
the embedded GUI device manager, or manage your network
with Cisco Network Assistant, an advanced PC-based
network management application. Cisco Network Assistant
offers centralized management and configuration of Cisco
switches and other Cisco devices such as routers and
wireless access points. With Cisco Network Assistant, in
addition to configuring multiple switches at a time, you
can configure Cisco wireless access points, and invoke
the device manager on Cisco routers and access points.
Software upgrades on Cisco switches, routers, and
wireless access points are as easy as a drag-and-drop
process. You can download Cisco Network Assistant
(available at no cost) from the Cisco website
http://www.cisco.com/go/cna.
The Cisco Catalyst Express 500
Series switches also offer Power over Ethernet (PoE),
reducing the cost and complexity of IP Communications
and wireless LAN deployments. PoE is an advanced
technology that allows a switch to supply power and
provide Ethernet connectivity at the same time over
Category 5 cable to inline power devices, such as
wireless access points, closed-circuit TV cameras, and
IP phones. The PoE ports eliminate the cost and
complexity of running additional power outlets or cables
to inline power devices.
