Cisco Catalyst Micro Switches CMICR-4PC - Switch - 4 x 10/100/1000 (4 PoE+) + 1 x Gigabit SFP (uplink) + 1 - wall-mountable

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.

• Supports VLANs, port channels, and VLAN IDs for flexible network segmentation
• Operates efficiently within a wide range of temperatures and humidity levels, ensuring reliability in various environments
• 256 MB of flash memory and 512 MB of RAM for robust data processing and storage
• Complies with numerous standards including IEEE 802.1x and IEEE 802.3ad (LACP) for compatibility and performance
• Fanless design for silent operation, making it ideal for noise-sensitive environments

• Enhanced connectivity
  With four RJ-45 connectors supporting 10/100/1000 Base-T (PoE) and one SFP slot for Gigabit LAN, the Cisco Catalyst Micro Switches offer versatile connectivity options for various networking needs.
• Robust security features
  The CMICR-4PC model comes equipped with multiple authentication methods including MACAuth, RADIUS, and TACACS+, ensuring secure access and network integrity.
• Efficient network management
  Support for DHCP, RMON, and SNMP 3 protocols allows for comprehensive remote management of the network, facilitating efficient monitoring and maintenance.
• High performance
  Featuring a forwarding bandwidth of 6 Gbps, switching bandwidth of 12 Gbps, and a forwarding rate of 8.928 Mpps, this switch is designed to handle substantial data traffic, ensuring smooth network operation.
• Energy-saving design
  Incorporating ENERGY STAR Ethernet (EEE) and a fanless design, the Cisco Catalyst Micro Switches are not only quiet but also optimized for energy savings, reducing operational costs.
