C2G170-24: Product OverviewThe Enterasys C2G170-24 is a member of the C-Series family of “Web-Smart” managed switches, designed to provide an optimal balance of performance, features, and affordability for business-critical network environments. This switch delivers 24 Gigabit Ethernet copper ports for connecting desktop computers, IP phones, wireless access points, and servers, along with 4 dual-personality SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) slots for fiber optic uplinks. It operates as a Layer 2 managed switch, offering advanced features typically found on more expensive fully managed switches, but with a simplified web interface that makes it accessible to network administrators of varying skill levels.The switch’s “Web-Smart” designation indicates it provides a robust set of management capabilities configurable via an intuitive web-based graphical user interface (GUI), without the complexity of a full command-line interface (CLI). It supports essential functions for network control, security, and performance optimization, including Virtual LANs (VLANs) for traffic segmentation, Quality of Service (QoS) for prioritizing critical applications like voice and video, and link aggregation for increased bandwidth and redundancy. The switch is built with a robust metal enclosure for standard 19-inch rack mounting, ensuring reliable operation in wiring closets and server rooms.

Core Features & Customer ValueThe primary value of the C2G170-24 is its “Web-Smart” functionality, which offers a strong set of managed features at a competitive price point. For small to medium-sized businesses, this means gaining control over network traffic without requiring a dedicated network engineer. The intuitive web GUI allows for easy setup of VLANs to separate traffic between departments (e.g., separating guest Wi-Fi from the corporate network) and QoS to ensure high-quality Voice over IP (VoIP) calls.The flexible connectivity is a significant advantage. The 24 Gigabit copper ports provide high-speed access for end-users, while the 4 SFP slots allow for fiber uplinks to the network core or to other switches over long distances, future-proofing the network investment. Features like Link Aggregation increase bandwidth and provide redundancy for critical links, enhancing network reliability.Typical ApplicationsIn a small business or branch office, the C2G170-24 serves as the central network switch, connecting all user devices and providing fiber uplinks to a router or main office.In an enterprise wiring closet, it acts as an access layer switch, connecting end-users and providing VLAN segmentation and QoS policies to prioritize business-critical traffic.
