8100S Series Copper Switches

 | Layer 2–4 Fast Ethernet Stackable/Standalone Switches

AutoQoS with the 8100S Series enables 

a switch administrator to enter one 
command to enable all the appropriate 
features for the recommended QoS 
settings on edge and uplink port so this 
minimizes the complexity and speeding 
up the QoS deployment over the 
network.

In keeping with our commitment to 
environmentally friendly processes and 
products, the 8100 Series is designed 
to be green from the ground up, with 
reduced power consumption and 
minimal hazardous waste.

The use of highly recyclable metal, 

combination of green production 
processes, earth friendly packaging, high 
efficiency power supplies and effective 
power management deliver both cost 
savings and a reduced carbon footprint 
for the user.

Access Control Lists work as filters that 

can enable inspection and classification 
of incoming frames. Specific actions can 
then be performed on these defined 
frames to more effectively manage the 
network traffic at Layer 2 through  
Layer 4. ACLs are typically used as 
security mechanism, either permitting 
or denying entry for packets on specific 
switch ports.

The switch provides static IPv4 routing 

at the edge of the network as well as 
support for RIPv1 and RIPv2.

In order to fully understand the 
performance of the network and ensure 
the ongoing smooth delivery of critical 
data, users must be able to measure 
and analyze the traffic in real time.

The 8100S Series facilitates effective 

traffic monitoring with sFlow, an 
industry-standard technology for 
monitoring high-speed switched 
networks gives complete visibility 
into the use of the network enabling 
performance optimization, accounting, 
billing for usage, and even defense 
against security threats.

The 8100S Series guarantees 

protection and secure management of 
administrator’s network by providing 
strong security standards and 
authentication mechanism for access at 
the edge of a network.

IEEE 802.1x port authentication 
methods such as PEAP, EAP-TLS and 
EAP-TTLS supported by the 8100S 
Series allows network controller to 
restrict external devices from gaining 
unauthenticated access in to the 
network.

The Multiple Supplicant Authentication 

enables the switch to uniquely 
authenticate and apply the appropriate 
policies and VLAN for multiple users or 
devices on a shared port, allowing port 
expansion while keeping the network 
secure.

The 8100S Series comes in 

configurations of 24- and 48-port PoE. 
Both support PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at), 
which delivers up to 30W per port.

Power over Ethernet allows user to 
network and power a device using single 
Ethernet cable, thus eliminating the 
need for additional power outlets and 
simplifying the network installation. It is 
also unaffected by local variance in AC 
power, offering a standardized power 
infrastructure.

PoE+ with up to double the power 
provides superior power-management 
capability, as automatic power allocation 
can be made based on the exact 
requirement of the power device at a 
given time.

The 8100S Series supports both

Gigabit and Fast Ethernet Small Form-

Factor Pluggable (SFP) uplinks. The 
dual-speed ports make this series ideal 
for environments where Gigabit fiber 
switches will be phased in over time.

The 8100S Series allows for connectivity 

to the legacy 100FX hardware until the 
uplink device is upgraded to Gigabit.
