Part of the Total Network Solution, the new S3600 Smart Switch Series delivers an effortless setup and management system, vital for businesses lacking dedicated IT resources required for enterprise-grade solutions.”
The S3600 features intuitive web management for easy initial configuration, facilitating swift onboarding at the network access layer.
