Powerful Compact Design for Small Workgroup Environment
- The ES-2108 Managed Layer 2 Fast Ethernet Switch
series is designed for small workgroup environment.
Thanks to its compact 8-port design and selections of
uplink options (1000Base-T, SFP, 100FX), the ES-2108
series offers functionality and connectivity that best
fit your network needs. In addition, the wall-mountable
design adds flexibility of deployment.
The ES-2108 series comes in four models: ES-2108,
ES-2108-G, ES-2108-LC and ES-2108PWR. All switches
come with a non-blocking 5.6 Gbps switching architecture
for wire-speed transmission. The ES-2108 has 8 10/100Base-T
ports without the uplink interface. The ES-2108-G comes
with one dual personality Gigabit uplink port. Designed
for current 100FX deployment, the ES-2108-LC comes with
one independent 1 100FX port and one SFP slot to offer
network bridging over the fiber connection with future
hardware upgrade. In addition to having all the features
in ES-2108-G, ES-2108PWR includes the PoE (Power over
Ethernet) feature to supply power to devices connected
to the 8 PoE ports simultaneously.
Excellent Network Management Capability -
The ZyXEL ES-2108 series includes various management
tools to streamline your management effort. With ZyXEL's
exclusive iStacking™ technology, you can manage up to
24 ZyXEL switches through one IP address.. In addition,
through iManage™ that includes Web-GUI, CLI (Command
Line Interface) and text-based configuration, network
managers can select the one management interface they
are most comfortable with and get the job done efficiently.
Moreover, you can protect your management session with
SSHv1/v2 authentication and SSL encryption features.
You can also use ZyXEL's NetAtlas Enterprise, (an SNMP-based
network management software) to remotely manage your
ES-2108 series from a central location(*). With its
comprehensive features, ZyXEL's ES-2108 series is your
first choice for cost-effective networking.
Security on the Network Edge - Support of
IEEE 802.1x authentication allows centralized user management
and added security protection. The ES-2108 series comes
with complete VLAN functions (IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging
and port-based VLAN) secure your network. With 4K PVID,
you have complete freedom in VLAN management. The ES-2108
series also includes device-aware security features
(MAC address, like MAC filtering, MAC freezing and MAC
forwarding) to effectively prevent access of unidentified
devices. All these features offer extra protection on
the network edge.
Traffic Prioritization for Multi-Services
- With 4 priority queues and WRR scheduling mechanism,
ZyXEL's ES-2108 series is able to perform traffic prioritizing
for multi-service applications. You can also customize
DSCP settings to provide an end-to-end QoS environment.
In addition, you can enable IGMP snooping to optimize
service quality for IP multicasting applications. For
bandwidth management, the ES-2108 series supports bandwidth
increment of 64Kbps to give different bandwidth allocations.
