Stratix 2500 Lightly Managed Switch
We are so excited about the Stratix 2500 Lightly Managed Switch. Essentially, this switch closes the gap between unmanaged and managed switches. It offers a simple installation, much like that of the unmanaged switch, at a relatively low cost, while still meeting today’s industrial network demands.
The Stratix 2500 enables network connectivity in applications where traditional unmanaged switches lack the ability to provide network resiliency, diagnostics, and security; allowing you to achieve higher productivity and network reliability.
The Stratix 2500 offers consistent prioritization and delivery of traffic on a per-port basis and helps ensure that critical traffic is transported end to end with priority.
