Switches - the basis of modern network infrastructure

Switches, or network switches, are key elements of every modern computer network.   At Onninen we offer a wide range of high-quality switches. Our products ensure reliable communication between devices. They also guarantee optimal network performance.

In our daily practice, we see a growing demand for advanced switches. Companies are looking for solutions tailored to their needs. That is why our offer includes a variety of models. From simple unmanaged switches to advanced managed switches.

Types of switches available at Onninen

Our offer includes a wide range of network switches. Here are the most popular categories:

• PoE switches
• Unmanaged switches
• Managed switches
• Gigabit switches
• 10/100 Mbps and 100 Mbps Switches
• Switches with SFP ports
• 19" RACK and desk switches
• Video switches

PoE switches are becoming more and more popular in modern installations.   They enable the transmission of power along with data. This is an ideal solution for IP cameras or Wi-Fi access points. They eliminate the need for additional power cabling.

Unmanaged switches are a simple and cost-effective solution for small networks. They do not require configuration and work immediately after connection. Managed switches, on the other hand, offer advanced features. They allow for full control over network traffic.

Gigabit switches provide high throughput. They are essential in networks that require fast data transfer. 10/100 Mbps switches will work well in less demanding installations. They offer a good price-to-performance ratio.

Switch brands available at Onninen

In our offer you will find products from renowned manufacturers. We especially recommend Lanberg and Hikvision switches. These brands guarantee high quality and reliability. They meet the expectations of even the most demanding customers.

Lanberg offers a wide range of switches for various applications.   Their products are characterized by a good price-quality ratio. Hikvision, on the other hand, specializes in switches for monitoring systems. They offer advanced functions dedicated to CCTV networks.

Our experience shows that customers value the reliability of these brands. Many companies choose them for their network installations. They provide stable operation and long-term use.

How to choose the right switch?

Choosing the right switch is a key decision when designing a network. There are several important factors to consider:

1. Number and type of devices in the network
2. Required bandwidth
3. The need for network traffic management
4. The need to power devices via PoE
5. Installation location (RACK cabinet or desk)

For extensive corporate networks, we recommend managed switches.   They enable VLAN creation and traffic prioritization, which is essential for ensuring the performance of critical business applications.

For small offices or home networks, unmanaged switches are a good choice. They are easy to use and do not require configuration. They provide basic functionality at a lower cost.

We often come across questions about PoE switches. They are ideal for powering IP cameras or Wi-Fi access points. They eliminate the need for separate power cabling. This greatly simplifies installation and reduces costs.

Many customers ask us about switches with SFP ports. They allow connecting distant network segments using optical fibers. This is crucial in large industrial or campus installations.

Recently, in a project for a large shopping center, we used 19" RACK switches. They ensured an orderly installation in the server rack. This made it easier to manage and maintain the network.

When reorganizing offices, we most often recommend desk switches.   They are compact and easy to carry. They are ideal for dynamic work environments.

Onninen recommends selecting switches with a performance reserve. This allows for easy expansion of the network in the future. It is also worth considering models with redundant power supplies. They ensure continuity of operation even in the event of a failure.

Our experience shows that investing in quality switches pays off. They ensure stable network operation for many years. They also reduce costs related to downtime and repairs.

If you have any doubts about choosing the right switch, we provide professional advice. Our specialists will help you choose the optimal solution for your specific needs. We invite you to contact us and take advantage of our knowledge and experience in the field of network infrastructure.
