Choosing the right managed switch isn’t just about port count, it’s about scalability, intelligence, redundancy, and resiliency. The Plus Series managed switches cover every deployment need, from compact edge locations to high-density campus networks.

8-Port Managed Switches

Compact and Flexible Edge Deployments

The 8-Port Plus Series delivers Layer 3 routing in a compact form factor — purpose-built for bank branch edge deployments, and rural Business Correspondent (BC) points where space is limited but security is non-negotiable. With per-port 802.1X authentication, 802.1Q VLAN isolation, PoE+ for Wi-Fi access points and IP surveillance cameras, and Zero Touch Provisioning for remote deployment without on-site IT staff, the 8-Port Plus brings enterprise-grade access-layer security to every edge point in a bank's branch network.

Industrial 8-port models add hardened temperature tolerance and DIN-rail mounting, making them perfect for factories, smart cities, outdoor sites and mission-critical environments.

24-Port Managed Switches

Scalable Layer 3 Performance

The 24-Port Plus Series is the access-layer switch for standard bank branches — connecting teller workstations, ATM terminals, Wi-Fi 6 access points, IP cameras, biometric readers, and video banking kiosks on a single managed unit. Dynamic VLAN assignment via 802.1X and RADIUS automatically places every device into its correct security zone — staff, ATM, payment, surveillance, or guest — eliminating misconfiguration risk across hundreds of branches, while 240W+ PoE and dual PSU support ensure always-on branch connectivity that meets RBI's mandate for network availability at banking sites.

48-Port Managed Switches

High-Density Enterprise & Campus Networks

The 48-Port Plus Series delivers enterprise-grade Layer 3 routing, high resiliency, and massive switching capacity for large-scale deployments. With advanced segmentation and robust PoE+, these switches reliably power hundreds of devices in mission-critical environments.

FAQs

Common questions about advanced capabilities and scalability of Plus Series switches

What kind of uplink ports do these switches have?

All models in the C2+ and C3+ series have 4x1/10G SFP+ uplink ports. These ports are MSA compliant and offer the flexibility to terminate the connection on either copper or fiber-based SFP modules.

Are these switches Layer 2 or Layer 3?

These are L3 Lite managed switches. They support basic Layer 3 features such as static routing, RIP v1/v2, and OSPFv2/v3 for both IPv4 and IPv6.

Do these switches support both IPv4 and IPv6?

Yes, all models in the C2+ and C3+ series support IPv4/IPv6 dual stack and offer management features for both protocols.

What management interfaces are available?

These switches can be managed via CLI (Command Line Interface), WebGUI, Telnet, SSHv2, and SNMP v1/v2/v3.

Do these switches support VLANs?

Yes, they support up to 4094 VLAN IDs and various VLAN types including Voice VLAN, IP-subnet VLAN, Protocol VLAN, Private VLAN, and QiniQ.

How do managed switches improve network security?

Managed switches offer VLANs, dynamic segmentation, and Zero Trust policies that isolate users/devices and prevent unauthorized access. This is crucial for enterprises, campuses, and industrial networks handling sensitive data.

How do I plan for network growth when choosing a switch?

Always plan for 20–30% more ports than your current need. For example, if you have 18 wired devices, a 24-port managed switch ensures you won’t outgrow capacity as you add IP phones, APs, or IoT endpoints.
