FAQ
How many ports does this Cisco switch have, and what types are they?
The Cisco SG220-50-K9-NA-RF has 50 total network ports. This includes 48 standard Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports for connecting devices like computers and printers, plus 2 combo SFP slots that support either twisted pair or fiber optic uplinks. The combo slots allow flexibility for high-bandwidth or long-distance connections without sacrificing port density.
Is this switch manageable, and what Layer does it support?
Yes, this is a manageable switch operating at Layer 2. It supports essential management features such as VLANs for network segmentation, Quality of Service (QoS) for prioritizing traffic, and basic security protocols. This makes it suitable for organized networks where control over traffic flow and security is important, without the complexity of higher-layer routing.
Can this switch be mounted in a server rack?
Yes, the switch is designed for 1U rack-mountable installation, fitting standard 19-inch server racks. It also supports wall mounting or desktop placement, providing flexibility for different deployment environments. The compact dimensions (1.73"H x 17.32"W x 7.91"D) ensure it occupies minimal space while delivering high port density.
What is the power consumption of this switch?
The switch has a typical power consumption of 39.90 watts, supplied through an internal power source. This low power draw makes it energy-efficient for continuous operation, reducing electricity costs in business settings. It does not include PoE (Power over Ethernet) capabilities, so PoE devices would require separate power injectors or switches.
What does 'refurbished' mean for this product?
Refurbished indicates this switch has been professionally restored to full working condition, tested for performance, and cleaned. It comes with a lifetime warranty, ensuring reliability comparable to new units. This option provides a cost-effective way to acquire Cisco hardware with the same core functionality and support, ideal for budget-conscious deployments.
What types of cables and media does this switch support?
The switch supports both twisted pair cables (like Cat5e or Cat6) for standard Ethernet connections up to 100 meters, and optical fiber via SFP modules for the combo slots. This dual-media capability allows for cost-effective copper wiring in most scenarios, with the option for fiber uplinks where longer distances or higher bandwidth are needed, such as connecting to other switches or servers.
