Cisco Business Switch Transition Guide
Introducing Cisco Business Switch—simple, flexible, and secure networking for
small business
With compact form factors, true stacking capability, and a wide range of port and Power over Ethernet (PoE)
combinations, the Cisco® Business Switch is a new portfolio of affordable switches that provides a reliable foundation
for any small business network. Zero touch deployment drastically simplifies and expedites network set up. IPv6 and
Layer 3 routing optimize network bandwidth to accelerate digital transformation. Advanced security protects business
critical information.
Cisco Business Dashboard is a network management tool for Cisco Business switches, routers, and wireless access
points. Cisco Business Dashboard simplifies traditional challenges in deploying and managing business networks while
automating the deployment, monitoring, and lifecycle management of the network.
The new Cisco Business Switch Series replaces the current 350 Series Managed Switches, 250 Series Smart
Switches and 110/95 Series Unmanaged Switches. Users of Cisco Small Business 300, 200 and 100/90 Series
switches should also consider upgrading to Cisco Business Switch for better performance, easier management,
and enhanced security.
