can quickly deploy and configure all components in the Cisco Smart Business
Communications System, including the Cisco Catalyst Express 520 Series using Cisco
Configuration Assistant.
●
Ease of use: The Cisco Catalyst Express 520 Series was designed for ease of use by
SMBs without dedicated networking resources. You can deploy the switches in minutes
using Cisco Configuration Assistant’s intuitive GUI without ever having to learn command-
line interfaces or complex administrative terminals. Cisco Configuration Assistant can
dynamically configure your switches or suggest recommended settings for all ports and let
you choose from preset options with Cisco Smartports Advisor. In addition, all ports support
autonegotiation of port speed, data rate, and duplex mode. The Cisco Catalyst Express 520
Series includes automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (Auto-MDIX) detection
support, which determines the wire pair to use for transmitting and receiving data and
avoids the use of incorrect cable types.
●
Limited Lifetime Warranty: All Cisco Catalyst switches are protected for the life of the
product by the Cisco Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty and include free Cisco IOS
Software updates. For more information about the Cisco Limited Lifetime Warranty, visit
