Easy, Powerful Management
The PowerConnect 2700 series offers amazing value by delivering web-management capabilities for the
price of an unmanaged switch from other vendors. Dell’s web-managed switches allow users to manage
the switch through an intuitive web interface. The web-interface allows the user to easily manage the
switch without learning CLI commands or integrating the switch into an SNMP-based application. While
some vendors refer to their web-managed switches as “smart switches”, we like to think of our switches
as “powerful”…powerful performance coupled with powerful management capabilities. Each switch is
delivered in standard, unmanaged mode. Convert the switch to web-managed mode with the push-ofa-button
on the front panel, and then easily configure Quality of Service (QoS), port-based virtual LANs
(VLANs) and remote switch monitoring. The firmware allows you to upgrade the switch software as
needed. On top of all these capabilities, these new Gigabit Ethernet1 PowerConnect switches include
features not typically found on other web-managed switches, such as integrated front panel LEDs and
cable diagnostics.

Secure, Wire-Speed Performance
The PowerConnect 2700 series is a switch family of secure, fixed-port Gigabit Ethernet1
switches delivering full wire-speed switching performance. These switches offer three port densities, including
8, 16, 24 and 48 Gigabit Ethernet1 ports. In addition the 2724 and 2748 have SFP slots in a combo
port arrangement that deliver fiber capabilities (SFP transceivers optional). Auto MDI/MDIX and autonegotiation
of speed, duplex mode and flow help deliver improved control over your network traffic. The
PowerConnect 2716, 2724 and 2748 also support jumbo frames for networks that need to move large
files across the network.

Industry-Standard Manageability
Because these switches adhere to industry standards, you should expect that these switches will
interoperate with other industry-standard networking equipment devices. Easy web access to the
managed features provides a secure environment by offering password restricted access. These
switches also allow the user to specify which IP addresses have access to the switch thereby furthering
their security. Up to 64 industry-standard VLANs are supported and four priority queues help optimse
network traffic using IEEE 802.1p quality-of-service. Port mirroring allows users to monitor network
traffic for intrusion detection and troubleshooting. To provide additional bandwidth when connecting to
other switches, the 2700 series switches support up to six link aggregation groups consisting of up to
four ports per group. Advanced cable diagnostics help improve network troubleshooting while the DHCP
client feature allows the switch to have an IP address assigned to it dynamically by a DHCP server. The
PowerConnect 2700 series offers you more power so you can get more out of your network!
