Cisco Meraki MS125-48-HW
The Meraki MS125-48 48-Port Cloud Managed Gigabit Switch provides Layer 2 access switching ideal for branch and campus deployments. It features a variety of power options designed to meet the diverse needs of large enterprise networks. This Meraki switch is built from the ground up for cloud management without compromising any of the power and flexibility traditionally found in enterprise-class switches. Like all Meraki switches, it is managed through an elegant, intuitive cloud interface, rather than a cryptic command line. To bring up the MS125-48, simply plug it in. It does not require CLI for switch configuration or port management. Meraki’s centralised management platform gives administrators granular visibility into their network. Their dashboard helps you keep track of every configuration change in your network with our detailed event and change logs.
