"Over the course of the last two years, networking vendor Cisco
has been upgrading and expanding its small business networking
offerings. That effort continues this week with the launch of a new
lineup of managed switches and updated VoIP phones specifically
gears for small business networking environments.
"Among the new products is the Cisco 300 series of managed
switches which expand Cisco's small business switching portfolio
beyond the unmanaged Cisco 100 series which debuted earlier this
year.
"As is the case with nearly all of Cisco's small business
networking gear, the Cisco 300 series uses the Linux operating
system instead of Cisco's enterprise IOS operating system. For
Cisco, Linux offers a key differentiator when it comes to targeting
small business needs."
