Linksys SRW208MP User Manual

Secure, reliable, intelligent, managed
PoE switching for your growing business

Growing businesses require cost-effective, networking solutions that can scale with
ever changing business needs. The Linksys SRW208MP Switch with WebView brings
a whole new level of intelligence and security to the network infrastructure. The
combination of its intelligence and small size make it ideal for a conference room
or training room where security and uptime are important. It offers two ports for
connecting gigabit copper or optical interfaces to a core switch.

For Wireless or VoIP deployments, the SRW208MP supports the IEEE802.3af standard
for Power over Ethernet. With automatic load sensing, the power control circuitry
automatically detects Power over Ethernet on an end-device before providing power.
Power feeding of Ethernet is limited for fixed 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports. The solution can
provide maximum output power per PoE port up to 15.4W on all 8 ports simultaneously.
It also includes independent overload and short-circuit protection for each port and LED
indicators for power status per PoE port.

Network security is a top priority in any size business. Most business data networks, large
and small, are unsecured. Unauthorized access to the network and mission critical data is a
constant concern. The SRW208MP secures the network through 802.1X port authentication
and MAC-based filtering. 802.1X requires the clients to authenticate themselves before the
port will pass data.

SRW208MP

Businesses are recognizing the benefits of doing Voice over IP (VoIP) and are quickly migrating
their voice services to IP-based platforms, requiring their local area networks to support both
voice and data applications. In unmanaged IP networks, bursty data sessions can disrupt voice
packet delivery, causing poor voice quality. With the enhanced QoS and traffic management
features in the SRW208MP, voice data can be prioritized, ensuring clear and reliable voice
communications.

Enabling the SRW208MP advanced features further secures the integrity of your network. The
WebView interface provides an intuitive, secure management interface enabling you to better
utilize the comprehensive feature-set of the switch, resulting in a better optimized, more secure
network.
