Business-class Layer 2 Fast Ethernet
Switch with Access Control List (ACL)
The ZyXEL ES3500 Series Fast Ethernet layer 2 switches are specifically designed for small and
medium-sized businesses to deliver valuable Ethernet services to customers and employees.
With Gigabit SFP uplinks and robust access control functions, businesses can easily extend
network topologies and fulfill different customer needs. The complete ES3500 Series also
supports IPv6 for trouble-free future network expansions.
The ES3500 Series consists of three layer 2 switches with Gigabit uplinks: the ES3500-24,
ES3500-24HP and ES3500-8PD. The ES3500-24 has 24 Fast Ethernet ports; the ES3500-24HP
features 24 IEEE 802.3at PoE Plus ports; while the ES3500-8PD is an 8-port Fast Ethernet
switch with a special powered device (PD) design, enabling it to be powered via an external
power adapter or a PoE connection.
Benefits
Advanced access control features for user data protection
Avoiding subscribers from affecting each other on a shared network or device is a major concern for
SMB networks. The ZyXEL ES3500 Series offers a complete set of security features to protect user
data while administrating network traffic. It features port security, 802.1X authentication and
RADIUS accounting to prevent unauthorized access and provide powerful access control for
converged networks.
The ES3500 Series features a multilayer (L2/L3/L4) ACL suite of sophisticated policy-based control
mechanisms, which can be used to help SMBs prevent abnormal or illegal access. Policies can be
defined via a GUI or CLI to deny packets based on source and destination MAC addresses, IP
addresses or TCP/UDP ports.
Dual-speed SFP uplinks for reliable connections in distributed deployments
The ES3500 Series is an ideal solution for SMBs that need to establish a converged network across
long distances or multiple floors. It supports dual-speed (100/1000 Mbps) SFP uplinks, providing
more options in establishing fast and reliable connections in distributed and long distance
deployments. Supporting Digital Diagnostics Monitoring Interface (DDMI), the ES3500 Series allows
administrators to easily detect packet loss from transceivers and aging cables to avoid unstable
network service, lower maintenance overhead and boost business productivity.
