Cambium Networks is pleased to announce the availability of the TX 2028RF-P switch – part of the TX 2K Tower Switch family specifically designed for WISP networks that builds on top of Cambiums’ existing cloud-managed intelligent edge architecture. The Cambium TX2028RF-P switch combines intelligent Power over Ethernet (PoE), dual redundant GPS synchronization sources, a full suite of enterprise grade Layer 2/3 features and flexible power options with an AC/DC removable power supply. The Cambium TX2028RF-P also comes with 8 1Gbps SFP fiber ports. The TX switches are fully managed and are supported in cnMaestro to provide an end-to-end view of the wired-wireless network.
The cnMatrix™ TX Series provides the following functionality (easily accessible via the front panel):
- Cambium (GPS) sync (for timing synchronization across Cambium radios)
- Redundant input sync sources
- Internal GPS module with external antenna
- Cambium cnPulse sync generator
- Redundant input sync sources
- Comprehensive intelligent PoE solution
- Standards-based active PoE: 802.3af, 802.3at, 802.3bt (up to 90W)
- 24V Passive PoE (up to 15W)
- 54V Passive PoE (up to 90W)
- Flexible per port control with statistics
- Removable Power supplies
- AC Supplies: 600W, 930W, & 1200W options
- DC Supplies: 600W, 930W, & 1200W options
- Wide voltage input range: 36V–72V DC input
- Fully Isolated—accepts negative and positive DC input, for example -48V
The TX series includes the full range of capabilities of the cnMatrix platform of switches:
- Full-line rate, non-blocking architecture
- Easy and simple, free cloud (or on premise) management with cnMaestro™ or XMS*
- Zero Touch Provisioning
- Policy Based Automation eliminates manual and time-consuming configuration
- Enhanced Security with automated device profiling and segmentation
Simplified Operations
- Cloud Management ‒ Provide a common dashboard to configure and monitor a distributed network of switches
- Zero-Touch Provisioning ‒ Enable easy deployment and initial configuration that reduces cost of network rollout
- Policy-Based Automation ‒ Reduce network engineering time and eliminate error-prone manual configuration by automatically configuring the switch port based on the type of device connecting to the port
Improved Performance & Security
- Policy-Based Automation ‒ Automatic device profiling, network segmentation, device specific policy enforcement, and auto policy cleanup:
- Automated Device Profiling – Automatically detect type of devices that connect to the switch
- Automated Segmentation – Assign devices to the correct network segment
- Automated Policy Enforcement – Configure the switch port based on pre-defined device specific policy
- Auto Configuration Clean Up and Maintenance – Delete port configuration when a device is disconnected
- Increased PoE power using 802.3af/at/bt with 4-PPOE ports capable of delivering up to 90W per port for PTP and PMP radios, Wi-Fi APs, and video surveillance cameras
Disruptive TCO
- Lower CAPEX: Layer 2/Layer 3 Enterprise grade switching with flexible & intelligent PoE and Cambium synchronization all in a single solution
- Lower OPEX: Automation that improves staff efficiency, eliminates manual configuration errors, reduces the impact and time associated with security breaches by segmenting the networks into discrete security domains
