Waters' GSM 2924 modular design provides a flexible cost-saving solution for combining fiber and copper switch ports in a single chassis. By combining fiber and copper switch ports into the same chassis, the flexibility of media conversion is built directly into the switch.
Flexibility
The 2924 is a fully managed L2 chassis-based switch with eight fixed 10/100/1000Base-TX ports. Twenty-four GBIC slots are available for 1000Base-SX or LX fiber, providing a total of 24 usable ports.
The Paulding County School District has been enjoying the benefits
of a scalable, cost-effective and feature-rich VoIP system for more
than three years. Take a look at this case study to see how the
Waters Network Systems/Alcatel partnership provided this technology-rich
district with the tools to implement current and future technology
applications.
"Waters was the only manufacturer that provided a fiber uplink
on a mini switch that was easily mountable and protected from outside
access. I would implement this solution again in a heartbeat.
