™
Dell to provide a powerful switch with outstanding cost and power savings
The PowerConnect 2800 series is a switch family
of secure, fixed-port Gigabit Ethernet switches
delivering full wire-speed switching performance.
These switches offer four port densities, including 8,
16 , 24, and 48 port Gigabit Ethernet ports. In addition
the 2824 and 2848 have SFP slots in a combo port
arrangement that deliver fiber capabilities (SFP
transceivers optional). Auto MDI/MDIX and auto-
negotiation of speed, duplex mode and flow help
deliver exceptional control over your network traffic.
The PowerConnect 2800 family also supports jumbo
frames for networks that need to move large files
across the network.
Easy, powerful management
The PowerConnect 2800 series offers amazing value
by delivering web-management capabilities that
allow users to manage the switch through an intuitive
web interface. The web-interface allows the user to
easily manage the switch without the requirement to
learn CLI commands or integrating the switch into an
SNMP-based application, though a focused set of CLI
and SNMP commands are available for environments
requiring basic centralized remote management.
While some vendors may refer to their web-managed
switches as "smart switches", we like to think of our
switches as "power switches" powerful performance
coupled with powerful management capabilities.
Each switch is delivered in standard, unmanaged
mode. Convert the switch to web-managed mode
with the push-of-a-button on the front panel, and
then easily configure Quality of Service (QoS),
port-based virtual LANs (VLANs) and remote switch
monitoring. The firmware allows you to upgrade the
switch software as needed. The PowerConnect 2800
family also features technology to help reduce power
consumption per port by up to 96% on unused ports.
2800 series are web-managed, Gigabit Ethernet switches designed by
™
Easy web access to the managed features provides a
secure environment by offering password restricted
access. These switches also offer enhanced security
by allowing the user to specify which IP addresses
have access to the switch. Up to 64 industry-standard
VLANs are supported and four priority queues
help optimize network traffic using IEEE 802.1p
quality-of-service. Port mirroring allows users to
monitor network traffic for intrusion detection and
troubleshooting. To provide additional bandwidth
when connecting to other switches, the 2800
series switches support up to six link aggregation
groups consisting of up to four ports per group.
Advanced cable diagnostics help improve network
troubleshooting while the DHCP client feature
allows the switch to have an IP address assigned to
it dynamically by a DHCP server, or the integrated
DHCP server feature can be enabled to help
manage a small LAN. The PowerConnect 2800
series offers you more power so you can get more
out of your network!
