Cisco Meraki MS120-48FP
The Meraki MS120-48FP 48-Port Cloud Managed Gigabit PoE+ Switch provides Layer 2 access switching ideal for branch and campus deployments, and features a variety of power options designed to meet the diverse needs of large enterprise networks. The Meraki MS120-48FP 48-Port switch is built from the ground up for cloud management without compromising any of the power and flexibility traditionally found in enterprise-class switches. It is managed through an elegant, intuitive cloud interface, rather than a cryptic command line. To set up this switch, just plug it in; there’s no need for complicated configuration files or even direct physical access to the switch. Meraki’s centralised management gives administrators deep visibility into the network and how it’s used.

Industry-leading cloud management
Cloud management has a number of benefits that make it easier to build networks large and small:

• True zero-touch device provisioning.
• Virtual Stacking: manage thousands of ports from a single pane of glass.
• Application-layer visibility with automatic operating system, client, and hostname fingerprinting.
• Powerful live tools such as packet capture and cable test to isolate and troubleshoot network issues.
• Alerts to indicate power loss, downtime, excessive Layer 1 errors, and configurations changes.
• Role-based administration and automatic, scheduled firmware-upgrades over the cloud.
• Regular feature updates and enhancements delivered on-demand from the Meraki cloud.

Distributed branches and remote sites
Meraki’s cloud-based system makes it easy to manage a single switch, or thousands of distributed switches, from a single interface.

• Troubleshoot problems remotely, e.g. find which port has a bad cable attached.
• Add or replace switches without having to send a technician onsite. Switches automatically download their current configuration as soon as they are connected to the network.
• Receive email alerts or SMS messages whenever there’s a problem at a remote site.

Campus edge
The MS120-48FP is ideal for small and large scale campus deployments, where reliability, scalability, and manageability are top priorities.

• Virtual Stacking lets administrators manage up to thousands of ports in a single interface without having to physically connect stack members.
• 1GbE cable SFP ports with link aggregation provide long range connectivity to aggregation switches.
• Get alerts if any switch fails or goes offline, before users complain.
