Cambium Networks cnMatrix EX1010-P Managed L2/L3 Gigabit Ethernet 1U

The Cambium Networks cnMatrix EX1010-P Managed L2/L3 Gigabit Ethernet 1U is a rack-mountable managed switch designed for 10/100/1000 Mbps connectivity with integrated Power over Ethernet (PoE) support. It provides enterprise-grade switching functionality in a 1U form factor and is intended for deployment in medium to large network infrastructures requiring reliable wired access and centralized management.

Advantages

The EX1010-P delivers managed L2/L3 features, Gigabit RJ-45 ports, and PoE to power endpoint devices directly from the switch. Its 1U design fits standard server racks, and the device supports widely used networking standards for interoperability and network control. Centralized cloud management enables remote configuration and monitoring.

Suitable for

• Office networks requiring PoE for IP phones, wireless access points, or cameras
• Wired access layer in campus or branch networks
• Rack-mounted deployments in data closets or wiring cabinets
