A mid-sized enterprise deploys the EX2300-48P-VC to power 48 IP phones and 20 802.11ac wireless access points across a single wiring closet. Leveraging PoE+ and Virtual Chassis, IT teams unify switch management, enable seamless device provisioning, and achieve sub-millisecond convergence with MLAG. Outcome: 50% fewer network outages, 30% faster device rollout, centralized monitoring, and optimized operational costs.
A national retail chain outfits each branch with the EX2300-48P-VC to feed surveillance cameras, RFID sensors, and guest Wi-Fi from a single switch. Virtual Chassis links provide active/active uplinks to the WAN router, eliminating single points of failure. Outcome: 24/7 video capture with zero frame loss, streamlined remote firmware updates, and a 40% reduction in branch-level hardware footprint and power consumption.
A regional hospital uses dual EX2300-48P-VC switches per floor to power telemedicine carts, patient monitors, and voice-over-IP consoles. Virtual Chassis ensures sub-second failover between chassis, while PoE+ supports up to 740W of endpoint power. Outcome: uninterrupted patient data flow, simplified VLAN-based traffic segmentation for HIPAA compliance, and a 25% savings in maintenance and energy expenses.
