Linksys LGS528P Managed PoE+ Switch, 28-Port Gigabit Ethernet
Linksys LGS528P - Description
Managed PoE+ Switch, 28-Port Gigabit Ethernet
Powerful Gigabit Connectivity with PoE+ Support:
Linksys LGS528P is a fully managed 28-port Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to deliver enterprise-grade networking performance and flexibility. Equipped with 24 PoE+ ports, this switch provides up to 192W of total power, offering seamless connectivity and power delivery to devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras. With support for IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) and backward compatibility with IEEE 802.3af, it simplifies deployment by eliminating the need for separate power supplies.
Advanced Network Management and Security Features:
Built to meet the demands of modern business networks, the LGS528P offers Layer 3 static routing, VLAN segmentation, and IPv6 support to improve traffic efficiency and routing between subnets. Advanced security features such as IEEE 802.1X port authentication, MAC-based port security, DHCP snooping, and IP-MAC-Port binding protect the network from unauthorized access and cyber threats. Up to 512 Access Control List (ACL) rules enhance policy enforcement at the packet level.
Optimized Quality of Service (QoS) for Real-Time Applications:
The switch includes a suite of advanced QoS capabilities that prioritize critical traffic, making it ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications like IP telephony and video conferencing. It supports port-based and 802.1p priority-based traffic control, DSCP classification, and up to four hardware queues per port. With features like head-of-line blocking prevention, Auto Voice VLAN, and traffic rate limiting, the LGS528P ensures superior voice and video quality without degrading other network services.
Scalability, Reliability, and Energy Efficiency:
Designed for growing business environments, the LGS528P supports link aggregation (IEEE 802.3ad LACP), Spanning Tree Protocols (802.1d, 802.1w), and storm control, enabling network expansion and redundancy. With 56 Gbps switching capacity and 41.67 Mpps forwarding rate, it handles high traffic loads with ease. Its energy-efficient design complies with IEEE 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet), dynamically adjusting power usage based on port status and cable length to lower operational costs.
Flexible Uplink and Fiber Expansion Options:
The inclusion of two combo mini-GBIC (SFP) ports allows flexible fiber or Ethernet uplink connectivity, ideal for connecting to core switches or servers in larger environments. These ports provide the scalability needed for growing networks and ensure high-speed, low-latency backbone connections.
User-Friendly Management and Warranty:
With intuitive management options including a web interface (HTTP/HTTPS), SNMP v1/v2c, Telnet, and dual firmware images, the LGS528P is easy to deploy and maintain. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, it offers reliable long-term value for business-critical network infrastructures.
