Meraki MS210-48FP Enterprise License and 3-Year Support
Introducing the Meraki MS210-48FP — a cloud-managed, 48-port Gigabit switch engineered for scalable networks that demand reliability, simplicity, and security. This package combines the Meraki Enterprise license with a 3-year Enterprise Support subscription, delivering continuous software updates, enhanced security features, and a streamlined management experience through the Meraki Dashboard. Designed for mid-size deployments, data centers, branch offices, and campus networks, the MS210-48FP helps you accelerate rollout, reduce on-site maintenance, and maintain peak performance across your network stack. With automatic cloud-based monitoring, you gain real-time visibility into device health, connected endpoints, and traffic flows, enabling proactive management rather than reactive firefighting. The result is a resilient, future-ready network that stays aligned with business objectives while minimizing total cost of ownership.
- Cloud-managed simplicity and centralized control: Manage every switch, access point, and security appliance from a single, intuitive Meraki Dashboard. Real-time visibility, policy automation, and zero-touch provisioning reduce deployment time, shorten mean time to repair, and empower IT teams to scale without sacrificing control. Comprehensive analytics help you understand usage patterns, identify bottlenecks, and optimize network performance across locations.
- 48-port Gigabit architecture with PoE capabilities: The MS210-48FP delivers dense, flexible port options suitable for powering IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and other PoE-enabled devices. With PoE/PoE+ on appropriate ports, you can simplify cabling, conserve power infrastructure, and accelerate improvements in site reliability without adding separate power drops. This capability is ideal for mid-size offices, retail spaces, and educational campuses where device density and ease of installation are paramount.
- Three-year license with enterprise-grade support: This subscription includes a 3-year license for the MS210-48FP, paired with Meraki Enterprise Support. You’ll benefit from ongoing software updates, new features, security patches, and access to Meraki’s technical resources—ensuring your network remains current and secure. The license model aligns with long-term planning, helping IT teams budget effectively while maintaining peak system health.
- Robust Layer 2 features and security: The MS210-48FP offers strong Layer 2 switching capabilities, advanced quality of service (QoS), VLAN segmentation, and detailed traffic controls. Fine-grained policies enable prioritization for critical applications such as voice and video, ensuring consistent performance even during peak usage. Built-in security features, including access control lists (ACLs) and threat prevention enhancements within the Meraki ecosystem, help protect against common network threats while preserving user experience.
- Reliability, visibility, and ease of compliance: With Meraki’s cloud-based management, you gain consistent configurations across sites, automated firmware updates, and audit-ready records of changes. The MS210-48FP supports scalable networking architectures, simplifies compliance reporting, and reduces the risk of configuration drift. In environments where uptime is non-negotiable, the combination of cloud monitoring, centralized alerts, and proactive remediation elevates network resilience and business continuity.

How to install Meraki MS210-48FP
- Prepare the site and rack: Ensure adequate rack space, ventilation, and power availability. Verify that your environment meets the switch’s input power requirements and that cooling is sufficient for sustained operation in dense deployments.
- Unbox and connect: Mount the MS210-48FP in the rack, connect the switch to power, and attach your uplink to your core network or another Meraki device. Connect one or more devices to the switch ports to begin initial testing.
- Adopt in Meraki Dashboard: Sign in to the Meraki Dashboard and add the new device by its serial number. The cloud portal will guide you through the adoption process, which associates the switch with your network organization and enables remote management.
- Apply licensing and policies: Ensure the 3-year Enterprise license is active in the Dashboard. Configure VLANs, QoS policies, port profiles, and any required security controls. Use the dashboard to define access controls, device onboarding rules, and alert thresholds to match your network requirements.
- Validate performance and security: After configuration, verify connectivity across devices, test critical applications (voice, video, and data), and confirm that PoE devices receive adequate power. Monitor the system for any anomalies via the Meraki Dashboard and adjust policies as needed for optimal performance.
- Document and monitor: Save configurations and maintain an up-to-date topology map within Meraki. Establish alerting for link status, device health, and traffic anomalies to ensure rapid response to any issues affecting user experience.
