Cisco 200 Series Switches
Cisco Small Business
Build a Powerful, Easy-to-Use Basic Business Network at an Affordable Price
The key to succeeding in today’s competitive business environment is investing resources wisely – knowing how to
separate the essential from the extraneous and get the most value for your dollars. As the backbone of your business
and productivity applications, the small business network clearly falls into the “essential” category. But that doesn’t
mean you need the most advanced feature set on the market.
With Cisco
®
200 Series Switches, you can achieve business-class network security and performance without paying
for advanced network management features that you will not need. When you need a reliable solution to share
network resources and connect computers, printers, and servers, but low cost is a top priority, Cisco 200 Series
Switches provide the ideal solution.
Cisco 200 Series Switches
Cisco 200 Series Switches are a series of affordable smart switches that combine powerful network performance and
reliability with the essential network management features you need for a basic business network. These expandable
Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet switches provide basic management, security, and quality-of-service (QoS) features
beyond those of an unmanaged or consumer-grade switch, at a lower cost than managed switches. And with an
easy-to-use web user interface and the Cisco Discovery Protocol, you can deploy and configure a rock-solid business
network in minutes.

and wireless technology solution, Cisco 200 Series switches can meet your business needs. Possible deployment
