Simple, secure, and smart business network at affordable prices
In today’s fast-paced business environment, business owners are becoming more selective in their IT investments,
including the network infrastructure. The network is a critical platform for business productivity, and a fast, reliable,
and secure network is more important than ever to help you stay ahead of the competition and grow your business.
With a limited budget, getting the most value for your money becomes especially important.
For businesses requiring high performance, security, and manageability from network switches, fully managed
switches are an excellent choice. However, they typically come with high price tags. Smart switches provide the
right level of network features and capabilities for growing businesses at lower prices, so you have more dollars to
invest where they’re most needed.

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 220 Series switches are 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. For more information, and to download the utility, visit
◦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. For more
information, visit https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/cloud-systems-management/findit-network-
management/index.html
●
Flexible network management capabilities. Cisco 220 Series switches provide 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 220 Series switches provide 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 220 Series switches 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 delaysensitive 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 switch automatically configures the device with the right VLAN and
QoS parameters to prioritize voice traffic.
●
Optimal energy efficiency. Cisco 220 Series switches are 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.
●
Peace of mind and investment protection. Cisco 220 Series switches offer the reliable performance,
investment protection, and peace of mind you expect from a Cisco switch. They have undergone rigorous
testing to help ensure easy integration and compatibility with other Cisco networking and communications
products, including the complete Cisco Small Business portfolio.
