Product Overview

The Cisco Catalyst Digital Building Series Switch is an Ethernet switch designed to enable wired Ethernet,
Power over Ethernet(PoE), and Universal Power Over Ethernet(UPOE) deployments for digitizing commercial
building subsystems, especially with applications such as Network Powered Lighting, HVAC controls, and
security. For simplicity, we will focus on the Network Powered Lighting use case in this guide to elaborate
the use of the switch. Network Powered Lighting refers to configuring IP and Ethernet LED-based luminaries
and sensors for smart lighting and building controls in an enterprise carpeted space.
Cisco Catalyst Digital Building Series Switches enable and drive this convergence of smart lighting and
building systems to IP over PoE technology.
Cisco Catalyst Digital Building Series Switches provide support for the following features:
• Eight Fast Ethernet downlink ports
• Two Gigabit Ethernet uplinks
• Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support up to 240W of PoE budget with the PoE/PoE+ switch model
and up to 480W of PoE budget with the UPOE switch model
• Reduced power consumption and advanced energy management
• RJ-45 and USB Micro-Type B console ports
• File system support on USB Type A port
