Introduction
The Lenovo CE0128PB Switch is a 1/10 Gb Ethernet (GbE) switch with Power over Ethernet (PoE) that delivers a compact, high-density, cost-effective GbE solution for network environments where space and power are at a premium. Featuring a small, 1U footprint, this switch is designed for access-layer deployments in branches, retail and workgroup environments, and campus networks. It can also be used as a management network switch in the data center infrastructures.

The CE0128PB switch offers 24x 10/100/1000BASE-T (RJ-45) fixed ports with Power over Ethernet (PoE) for powering attached network devices, such as such as telephones, video cameras, IEEE 802.11ac WLAN access points, and videophones. The switch also offers 4x SFP+ ports that support 1 GbE and 10 GbE optical transceivers, 10 GbE active optical cables (AOCs), and 10 GbE direct attach copper (DAC) cables. The switch supports a wide range of L2 and L3 features that provide performance, availability, security, and manageability for campus networks.
