Switch 425 switches — a stack is
managed as a single entity with a
single IP address
Small and medium enterprises are faced
with different challenges than larger
enterprises. When it comes to networking
equipment, they are looking for:
> Minimal time for set-up
> Plug-and-play capability
> Opportunities to improve employee
productivity
> Potential for gaining competitive
advantage
> Ability to save money
The Nortel Ethernet Switch 425 (formerly
known as BayStack 425 Switch) product
family has been designed to address the
needs of small to medium customers
and larger enterprises. The switches help
save money by allowing devices to be
connected at either 10 Mbps or 100
Mbps without needing newer switches
to accommodate different speeds. In
addition, as these are stackable switches,
the Ethernet Switch 425 family provides
investment protection to the small and
medium enterprise as the company
grows. Furthermore, easy Web-based
management features and plug-and-play
stacking ports save customers significant
time during the initial set-up as well as
throughout the life of the switch, thus
significantly minimizing the overall total
cost of ownership.
