Meraki MS125-48 Ghana

Description

Meraki MS125-48 Network Switch Ghana

The Meraki MS125-48 Ghana is Cloud-Managed Compact Switch provide Layer 3 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. Meraki MS125-48 is built from the ground up for cloud management without compromising any of the power and flexibility traditionally found in enterprise-class switches. Setting up is simple, Meraki MS125-48 Ghana is managed through an elegant, intuitive cloud interface, rather than a cryptic command line. Meraki’s centralized management gives administrators deep visibility into the network and how it’s used allowing managers to monitor switches that are near capacity across hundreds of sites. MS125 switch automatically connect to the Meraki cloud, download configuration, and join the appropriate network. If new firmware is required, this is retrieved by the switch and updated automatically.

Converged Voice, Video and Data Environments

The Meraki MS125-48 Ghana is designed to unify data, voice, and video onto a single IP backbone. All Meraki switches support rich quality of-service (QoS) functionality for prioritizing data, voice, and video traffic. The Meraki MS125-48 Ghana support eight class-of-service (CoS) queues on every port, enabling them to maintain end-to-end traffic prioritization. PoE models provide power VoIP telephones, IP security cameras, wireless access points (APs), and other IP devices.

Application Layer Visibility

Meraki Network Switch Ghana include integrated Layer 7 fingerprinting. Identify hundreds of applications from business apps to BitTorrent and YouTube. User fingerprinting with Google-like search allows administrators to easily identify and control individual users, PCs, iMacs, iPads, Androids, and other devices. This unprecedented visibility allows optimizing of network resources and maintaining optimal network performance.

Unified Software Architecture

The use of a common operating system allows the Switch to deliver a consistent experience across all product lines. When connected, the Meraki MS125-48 Switch Ghana automatically connect to the Meraki cloud, download configuration, and join the appropriate network. If new firmware is required, this is retrieved by the switch and updated automatically.
