Teltonika SWM281 | 24-Port Managed Gigabit Switch
Lay the foundation for a high-performance network with the Teltonika SWM281, an advanced L2 managed switch with L3 functionality. The backbone for data-intensive environments, this switch offers impressive port density with 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 4 SFP ports for stable fiber connections. As a pure data distribution solution, this is the perfect choice for networks where devices have their own power supply and the focus is on maximum throughput and reliability.
The SWM281 is built on the same intelligent platform as its counterparts, running on the powerful TSWOS operating system. This unlocks a world of advanced network configurations, from VLAN segmentation to support for industrial protocols such as PROFINET. Including 2 years of access to the Teltonika Remote Management System (RMS), this switch offers not only superior performance but also unparalleled ease of management and maintenance.
Key Features
- Massive Port Density for Large-Scale Networking: With 28 high-speed ports (24x 1G Copper, 4x 1G Fiber), the SWM281 is an ideal focal point for connecting a large number of network devices, perfect for reducing complexity in busy server racks or distribution points.
- High-Speed Fiber Backbone Connectivity: The 4 SFP ports provide the ability to create reliable, long-distance uplinks to the heart of your network. Connect buildings, floors or core switches with a fast and interference-free fiber connection.
- Intelligent Network Segmentation and Control: Take advantage of advanced L2 and L3 features to optimize your network. Use VLANs to segregate traffic for increased security and performance, and apply QoS to ensure critical applications always get the bandwidth they need.
- Seamless Industrial Automation: Built-in support for industrial protocols such as PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and MRP makes the SWM281 a reliable link in any Industry 4.0 environment, where communication with PLCs and SCADA systems is essential.
- Simplified Management with 2 Year RMS: Streamline your IT operations with 2 years of included access to Teltonika’s cloud-based Remote Management System (RMS). Access, manage and monitor your switches from any location, saving time and operational costs.
Applications
As a high-density data distribution platform, the SWM281 is perfect for:
- Enterprise IT & Office Networking: Connecting clusters of workstations, printers and servers in an enterprise environment.
- Industrial Control Panels: Aggregating data traffic from various controllers, HMI panels and sensors not powered by Ethernet.
- Data Centers (Top-of-Rack): Functions as a cost-effective ToR switch for connecting servers and storage systems in a server rack.
- Large-scale Video Surveillance: Ideal for centralizing video streams from IP cameras using external power or dedicated PoE injectors.
