This document provides an introduction to switched networks and describes different types of network switches. It explains that switched networks support small to medium-sized businesses by converging data, voice, and video. There are two main categories of switches: modular switches that provide flexibility through expansion modules, and fixed-configuration switches that include unmanaged, managed, and smart switches. Managed switches offer the most comprehensive features and scalability. Key factors to consider when choosing a switch include speed, port count, Power over Ethernet support, and stackability.

Guide to Enterprise Switches and Their SelectionVERSITRONINC
Enterprise switches are the type of network switches, which are deployed in large networks comprising many connections. These switches do not suggest typical types but only refer to the work environment and application. There are different types of enterprise switches based on the designs. This post analyzes these switches, their hierarchy, types, and applications in detail.
Core switch is designed to meet the most demanding enterprise network requirements such as reliability, high speed, and scalable.

A network switch is a networking tool that joins computers on a network so they may communicate with one another. It is in charge of forwarding data packets across network devices and works at the OSI model’s data link layer.
A network switch regulates the flow of data traffic on a network in a manner similar to that of a traffic controller. It accepts data packets from various connected devices and sends them to the right place. This enables simultaneous communication between several devices without interfering with one another’s conversations.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

11. TYPE OF NETWORK SWITCH
There are two main categories of switches: modular and fixed configuration
Modular Switches
Fixed-configuration switches
a) Unmanaged switches
b) Managed switches
c) Smart switches
12. MODULAR SWITCH
Modular switches let you add
expansion modules as needed, giving
you flexibility as network requirements
change. Expansion modules are
application-specific and include those
for firewalls, wireless connectivity, or
network analysis. They may also allow
for additional interfaces, power
supplies, or cooling fans. This type of
switch provides you with the most
flexibility, but at a higher cost
13. FIXED-CONFIGURATION SWITCHES
Unmanaged switches
Unmanaged switches are typically used
to provide basic connectivity. They're
designed to be plug and play; no
configuration is needed. Unmanaged
switches are most effective when only
basic switching and connectivity are
required. You will often see them in home
networks or wherever only a few ports
are needed, such as at a desk, in a lab, or
in a conference room
14. FIXED-CONFIGURATION SWITCHES
Smart switches
Smart switches offer some management and
segmentation, quality of service, and
security capabilities, so they can be a cost-
effective alternative to modular switches.
Still, they are not as scalable as managed
switches. These switches are typically
deployed at the edge of a large network
(while managed switches are used in the
core), as the infrastructure for smaller
networks, or for low complexity networks
15. FIXED-CONFIGURATION SWITCHES
Managed switches
Among fixed-configuration switches, managed
switches are designed to deliver the most
comprehensive set of features to provide the best
application experience, the highest levels of
security, the most precise control and
management of the network, and the greatest
scalability. As a result, managed switches are
usually deployed as aggregation/access switches
in very large networks or as core switches in
smaller networks.
Managed switches are the most expensive option
of fixed-configuration switches and are most
common in organizations with large- or growing-
networks
16. FOUR SWITCH OPTIONS TO KEEP IN MIND
In addition to evaluating switch categories, you should also consider network switch speeds, number of ports, power-over-Ethernet features,
and stacking capabilities.
Switch speeds
Switches are available in different throughputs or speeds, the rate they transmit data in megabits per second (Mbps). For example, fixed-
configuration switches can provide Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps), Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps), Ten Gigabit (10/100/1000/10000 Mbps),
and even 40/100 Gbps (gigabits per second) speeds. The switch speed you choose depends on the type of throughput you need. If, for example,
you need to move large data files on a regular basis, you should consider a Gigabit Ethernet switch.
Number of ports
As is the case with switch speed, the number of ports available in a switch can vary. The bigger your small business and the more network users
you have, the more ports you'll need. Fixed-configuration switches are usually available with five, eight, 10, 16, 24, 28, 48, or 52 ports.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) vs. non-PoE
PoE lets you power a device—such as an IP phone, surveillance camera, or wireless access point—over the cable that is used for data traffic. This
allows you to place endpoints anywhere, even in those areas that are usually difficult to reach. Switches with PoE are more expensive, however.
As you evaluate your options, think about the devices you would like to connect to determine whether PoE is required.
Stackable vs. standalone switches
As your business (and your network) grows, you will likely need to support more and more devices, which will mean investing in more switches.
Just as its name implies, a standalone switch is managed and configured as an individual entity with limited capacity. If there is a problem,
troubleshooting is also switch specific.
In contrast, stackable switches can be connected to increase the capacity and availability of your network. Rather than configuring, managing,
and troubleshooting each switch, you can treat the "stack" as a single unit. This means that if any part of the stack fails, the stack will route
around the failure, so your network keeps running
