ms350-24X-front

MS350 Series (End-of-Sale)

Stackable access switches with 10G SFP+ uplinks, designed for high-performance campus networks and high-density wi-fi developments 

This series is now End Of Sale.

End of Support date will be 8th August, 2030.  

End of Support does not mean end of dashboard connectivity, it means that HW and SW issues will not be under warranty once the official period has expired

The closest equivalent replacements are the C9300 Series


CLOUD-MANAGED STACKABLE ACCESS SWITCHES

The Cisco Meraki MS350 series switches provide reliable and high bandwidth access switching ideal for deploying in campus networks. With high speed stacking capabilities and 10G SFP uplinks built in on every model, redundancy and performance are guaranteed.

This family also supports options for multigigabit, UPoE, redundant, field-replaceable power supplies for mission critical networks.

Cisco Meraki switches are built from the ground up to be easy to manage without compromising any of the power and flexibility traditionally found in enterprise-class switches. The Meraki MS is managed through an elegant, intuitive cloud interface, rather than a cryptic command line. To bring up a Meraki switch, just plug it in; there’s no need for complicated configuration files, or even direct physical access to the switch.

Meraki’s centralized management gives administrators deep visibility into the network and how it’s used. See which switches are near capacity across hundreds of sites. Find all configuration changes made by a certain person with instant search.

INDUSTRY LEADING CLOUD MANAGEMENT

Cloud management has a number of benefits that make it easier to build networks large and small:

  • True zero-touch switch provisioning.
  • Virtual stacking: manage up to thousands of ports from a single pane of glass.
  • Application layer visibility with automatic operating system, client, and hostname fingerprinting.
  • Powerful Live Tools such as packet capture and cable test to isolate and troubleshoot network issues.
  • Alerts upon power loss, downtime, or configuration changes.
  • Role-based administration and automatic, scheduled firmware upgrades over the web.
  • Regular feature updates and enhancements delivered on demand from the Meraki cloud.
