Benefits and Features of XMG1915 Series 2.5GbE Smart Managed Switches
- Easy and Affordable Solution for Upgrading Gigabit Networks to Multi-Gigabit Speeds – XMG1915 Series switches deliver up to 2.5 times faster speeds than today’s Gigabit networks using the existing standard gigabit wiring infrastructure. Each copper port on the switch automatically detects the required speed of the connected device, streamlining the setup process. The innovative design features front panel LED indicators that intuitively indicate the connection speed for each individual port. Two 10G SFP+ ports add 10G link connectivity and enable high-speed network connections to servers or other switches.
- An Ideal Solution for Deploying WiFi 6/6e Access Points and PoE Devices – Ensuring the network runs smoothly and efficiently, XMG1915 Series switches seamlessly connect to Zyxel WiFi 6/6E/7 access points at lightning-fast speeds. XMG1915-10EP and XMG1915-18EP switches provide eight uninterrupted PoE++ (60W) ports and a flexible PoE budget of 130W and 150W respectively to ease the deployment of PoE devices such as PTZ cameras, VoIP phones, access points, and IoT devices.
- NebulaFlex Provides Versatility in Management – NebulaFlex technology enables users to easily switch network management modes between standalone and the license-free Nebula cloud management platform. The intuitive Nebula Control Center enables all Zyxel products to be managed with a single pane of glass, and the local web GUI provides access to the full feature set and all configuration options of the switch.
- Compatible with the Nebula Ecosystem – Nebula supports a comprehensive range of Zyxel products including switches, access points, security firewalls, and 5G/LTE mobile routers to deliver a unified network experience. The Nebula app makes device onboarding easy and provides real-time network status. The app also allows IT managers to remotely reboot access points and IP cameras via power cycles or even block clients with unusual traffic.
- Near Silent Operation – Fanless and smart fan designs (XMG1915-18EP only) enable XMG1915 Series switches to operate near silently, ensuring that they seamlessly blend into any workspace without generating intrusive fan noises.
“The ever-increasing demand for faster network speeds in the office and home is creating data bottlenecks and chokepoints in the network that reduce productivity and degrade application performance,” explained Tri Nguyen, Channel Sales and Product Manager at Zyxel Networks. “Zyxel XMG1915 Series switches provide quick, easy upgrade solutions that solve bandwidth issues while eliminating the time and expense needed to upgrade network cabling.”
