Description
The Meraki MS210-48FP Enterprise License and 3-Year Support delivers a cloud-managed, 48-port Gigabit switch designed for scalable networks that demand reliability, simplicity, and security. This package pairs the Meraki Enterprise license with a comprehensive 3-year Enterprise Support subscription, ensuring you receive ongoing software updates, enhanced threat protection, and a streamlined management experience through the Meraki Dashboard. Built for mid-size deployments, data centers, branch offices, and campus networks, the MS210-48FP accelerates rollout, reduces on-site maintenance, and sustains 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 aligned with business objectives while minimizing total cost of ownership. Cloud-managed simplicity and centralized control mean you can oversee every switch, access point, and security appliance from a single, intuitive Meraki Dashboard. Real-time visibility, policy automation, and zero-touch provisioning shorten deployment time, boost 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. Upgrade your network with a high-density, secure platform that combines ease of use with enterprise-grade capabilities.
- Cloud-managed simplicity with Meraki Dashboard: Manage the entire network—from switches to access points to security appliances—from a single pane of glass. Real-time health monitoring, automated policy enforcement, and centralized visibility streamline operations, simplify troubleshooting, and accelerate IT response times.
- 48-port Gigabit architecture with PoE capabilities: A dense switching fabric designed for high device density. PoE/PoE+ on appropriate ports powers IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and other powered devices, reducing cabling clutter and eliminating the need for separate power drops in many deployments.
- Three-year enterprise license and robust support: The 3-year license is paired with Meraki Enterprise Support, delivering ongoing software updates, security patches, feature enhancements, and access to Meraki’s technical resources to ensure your network stays current and secure.
- Advanced Layer 2 features and security: Fine-grained QoS, VLAN segmentation, ACLs, and traffic controls enable prioritization for latency-sensitive applications while maintaining robust security controls and threat prevention within the Meraki ecosystem.
- Zero-touch provisioning and proactive analytics: Rapid deployment with automated device onboarding, policy templates, and continuous analytics that help you optimize performance, identify bottlenecks, and plan capacity as your network grows.
