Fully-Managed Layer 2, 10/100 Switching with Enterprise-Class Features
The 3Com® Switch 4210 is a family of Layer 2 entry-level 10/100 LAN switches with enterprise-class QoS, security and management features, delivering high value for network administrators looking for an economical edge device.
Available Power over Ethernet (PoE) models are ideal for voice over IP and wireless networking installations; non-PoE models are also available for simple port expansion. All models feature Gigabit uplinks and clustered stacking functionality.
Setting them apart from lower-end "smart managed" devices, the Switch 4210 supports an industry-standard Command Line Interface (CLI), Web-based administration, and SNMP management.
Cluster together up to 32 devices for easy administration, with single IP management across 3Com switching lines— with mixed clusters of Switch 4210, 4200G, 4500G, 5500 and 5500G devices.
In addition to rack-mount 26-port models, the Switch 4210 is available in small form factor units with nine or 18 ports for enterprise branch and small workgroup deployments, in both PoE and non-PoE variants, with the same manageability as the larger rack-mount versions.
These switches feature combination ports that can run in one of two modes: 10/100/1000 Mbps connections over copper Ethernet cabling, or 100 or 1000 Mbps over fiber cabling using SFP mini-GBIC technology.
All Switch 4210 models come with 3Com's lifetime warranty covering the unit, power supply and fan; free software updates are provided, and Advanced Hardware Replacement with next business day shipment is available in most regions.
