SWITChINGDATA SHEETOVERVIEWThe 3Com® Switch 4500 family of managed, stackable10/100 Ethernet switches provides secure, flexibleLAN connectivity for enterprise and branch officenetworks. The Switch 4500 family offers Layer 2switching and dynamic Layer 3 routing, as well asrobust security, Quality of Service (QoS) andmanagement features to deliver intelligent edgeconnectivity for essential business applications.Four switch models—stackable in anycombination up to eight units—include:>3Com Switch 4500 26-Port:24 10/100 ports plus 2 dual-personality Gigabitort pairs>3Com Switch 4500 50-Port:48 10/100 ports plus 2 dual-personality Gigabitport pairs>3Com Switch 4500 PWR 26-Port:24 10/100 Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports plus2 dual-personality Gigabit port pairs>3Com Switch 4500 PWR 50-Port:48 10/100 PoE ports plus 2 dual-personality Gigabitport pairsKEY BENEFITSSECURES THE NETWORKEssential security features provide user and deviceauthentication, enforce access control for switchmanagement and enhance overall network security toprotect critical resources and information.EMPOWERS APPLICATION CONVERGENCEThe Switch 4500 family combines high performanceswitching, QoS and advanced traffic managementfeatures to help ensure essential applications get theappropriate priority for efficient utilization of networkresources.REDUCES DEPLOYMENT COSTSTwo Switch 4500 models provide Power over Ethernet(PoE). PoE provides electrical power and dataconnectivity over a single Ethernet cable—resulting insignificant cost savings when deploying devices like IPphones, wireless access points and IP securitycameras.INCREASES FLEXIBILITY AND SCALABILITYDual-personality ports allow for both copper and fiberGigabit uplink connections. The switch supports truestacking with the ability to stack up to eight switchunits—384 10/100 ports per stack—with single IPmanagement and distributed aggregated links forhigh uplink resiliency. Alternatively, cluster manageup to 32 geographically distributed devices together,with any mix of Switch 5500G, 5500, 4500G, 4500,4200G and 4210s.3COM SWITCH 450010/100 FAMILYfrom top: 3Com Switch 4500 26-Port, Switch 4500 50-Port, Switch4500 PWR 26-Port, Switch 4500 PWR 50-PortIntelligent and secure edge connectivity,ideal for small and medium enterprise andbranch office networks
