Cisco Catalyst Micro Series Switches:
The Cisco Catalyst Micro Switches are Cisco’s purpose-built product family for FTTx deployments, allowing customers to eliminate IDF, save precious real estate, conserve energy, and cut cabling costs.
Fiber to the desk, office, etc. (FTTx) is not a new concept. In this deployment scenario, the improved range of fiber optics over copper cables allows access switches to be deployed right next to the end devices, with uplinks connected directly to the main distribution frame, eliminating the need for an intermediate distribution frame on each floor. However, as access switches get closer to the end users, the requirements for operating noise and product footprint get stricter. Enter the Cisco Catalyst Micro Switches, a product family of small, fanless switches purpose-built for FTTx deployments. These switches offer flexible mounting options and open up a variety of network design and connectivity opportunities.
- Four Gigabit Ethernet ports and two Gigabit Ethernet copper or fiber uplinks, with line-rate forwarding performance
- Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support, with up to 60W PoE power budget in wall-jack switches, and up to 120W for desktop versions
- Fanless design for silent operation and enhanced reliability
- Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty (E-LLW)
Enhanced security
Protect information and infrastructure with advanced security features and Cisco Software-Defined Access integration.
Simple deployment
Easily install and provision the switches with snap-in mounting hardware and Cisco Plug and Play.
Reliable Power over Ethernet
PoE+ with Perpetual PoE features provides reliable power over data cabling for Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
Advanced management
Support for Cisco DNA Center means you can manage the entire network through a single pane of glass.
Deploy secure intelligent switching with Cisco DNA software
Simple, flexible software subscription suites help you achieve the latest Cisco DNA innovations in policy-based automation, secure connectivity, and critical analytics and assurance across your network.
Features and Benefits:
Feature | Benefits |
---|---|
Switch reliability and scale | |
Small form factor, fanless design, silent operation | Delivers up to 30W of power per port, ideal for deployment in indoor open workspaces and other areas that require quiet operations. |
Perpetual and Fast PoE | Perpetual PoE ensures uninterrupted powering of endpoints during switch upgrades, reboots, and configuration changes. Fast PoE ensures powering of PoE endpoints within 5 seconds of power restoration, in case of power losses. |
System life | These switches come with the industry’s highest level of reliability and 10 years of system life. |
Prevalidated architecture | Cisco supports tested, validated, and integrated solutions, which can reduce deployment risk and speed up the time to value. Proven robust technology, with existing network and end-to-end security, provide a complete digital building solution. |
Installation simplicity | |
Flexible mounting options | Supports flexible deployment and mounting options, including wall mount, C-rail duct mount, desktop, and bottom mount, based on the SKU. |
Flexible powering options |
|
Single Pane of Management - Management/Automation Options | |
Configuration at scale | The switches are Cisco DNA ready and can be used as part of the Cisco Digital network Architecture (Cisco DNAC) solution for automated switch deployments. |
Automation via Cisco PnP | They also support Cisco Network Plug and Play (PnP), a secure, scalable solution that accelerates network device deployments by automating the installation and configuration of Cisco IOS® Software, enhancing productivity and user experience and reducing costs and downtime. |
Network management | Cisco Prime Infrastructure provides comprehensive network lifecycle management with an extensive library of features that automate initial and day-to-day management. Cisco Prime integrates hardware and software platform expertise and operational experience into a powerful set of workflow-driven configuration, monitoring, troubleshooting, reporting, and administrative tools. |
Cisco SDA Extended Node |
|
Software and security | |
Layer 2 features for operational simplicity |
|
Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) support | The switches functions as a CoAP Proxy. CoAP is a lightweight protocol enabling sensors, HVAC, and security systems to interoperate for delivering advanced space analytics. |
Security and threat defense |
|
Power management | |
Switch hibernate and deep sleep mode | Switch sleep management can be initiated through Cisco EnergyWise®, as was traditionally done, or through CoAP. CoAP support in the Catalyst Micro Switches enables a sleep trigger. This support is provided for initiating sleep with the Real-Time Clock (RTC) configuration. The system can wake up based on a wake-on-clock and mode button. |
IEEE 802.3az or Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) | Ports dynamically sense idle periods between traffic bursts and quickly switch the interfaces into a low-power idle mode, reducing power consumption. |
System power efficiency | The switches also improve the industry standard on system power efficiency. During the sleep condition, the system is reducing its power use by 65%, improving its energy efficiency. |
Cisco Energy Manager | Integrated with the Cisco Energy Management suite for full energy control and visibility. |
Power supply | Certified AC/DC adapter. |
