Linksys LGS326P - Description

Smart PoE+ Switch, 26-Port Gigabit Ethernet

High-Performance Gigabit Connectivity for Growing Networks:

Linksys LGS326P Smart PoE+ Switch is a 26-port Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to meet the high-performance networking needs of small to medium-sized businesses. With 24 Gigabit ports and 2 combo mini-GBIC (SFP) ports, this switch offers powerful connectivity and flexibility for a wide range of wired devices. It delivers seamless communication for bandwidth-intensive applications like file transfers, video conferencing, and cloud services, ensuring that your business operates with maximum speed and efficiency.

Advanced Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) Support:

Supporting the 802.3at PoE+ standard, the LGS326P provides up to 30W of power per port, simplifying the deployment of PoE-enabled devices such as IP phones, surveillance cameras, and wireless access points. It is also backward-compatible with 802.3af PoE devices, offering flexibility in your network design. This PoE capability eliminates the need for separate power supplies or outlets, reducing installation costs and allowing placement of devices in optimal locations without electrical constraints.

Smart Management and Easy Configuration:

Linksys Smart Switches offer an intuitive web-based interface that simplifies configuration and management of your network. IT administrators can easily set up VLANs, monitor traffic, and manage QoS settings to ensure critical business applications receive the bandwidth they need. With support for IPv6 and advanced Layer 2 features, the LGS326P enables scalable and secure networking tailored to business requirements.

Reliable Quality of Service (QoS) for Real-Time Applications:

To optimize performance for latency-sensitive applications such as voice over IP (VoIP) and streaming video, the Linksys LGS326P features robust Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms. QoS prioritizes traffic so high-demand data, like voice and video, receive preference. IGMP snooping further enhances network performance by directing multicast traffic only to appropriate ports, improving overall efficiency and reducing unnecessary data flooding.

Enhanced Security for Business Networks:

Network security is critical for protecting data and ensuring operational integrity. The LGS326P offers multiple security features, including 802.1X port authentication, MAC-based port security, DHCP snooping, and IP-MAC binding. These tools prevent unauthorized access and safeguard the network against spoofing and man-in-the-middle attacks, maintaining a secure and trustworthy infrastructure for your business.

Scalable Network Expansion and Reliability:

The Linksys LGS326P is designed with scalability and uptime in mind. It supports network redundancy and performance optimization through Link Aggregation, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), and Storm Control. These features ensure your network can grow without performance degradation or downtime, enabling you to connect more devices and locations as your business expands. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, the LGS326P is a reliable investment in your company’s networking future.
