Communication Networks (30 ComNet) has expanded its ValueLine by introducing a cost-effective 24-port modular Gigabit Ethernet switch for commercial security applications. The CWGE24MODMS is the company's first modular managed Ethernet switch that provides a high port count with great flexibility in communications media type and connector choice. The all-new device is essentially a user-configurable chassis that allows for three eight-port modules to be accommodated. The modules are available as either eight electrical ports, eight fixed SC optic ports, eight user-selectable SFP ports, or a combination of electrical and SFP optical ports. All 24 ports support Gigabit Ethernet transmission.

According to Andrew Acquarulo, Jr, ComNet president and COO, "There was a definite need in the market for a feature-rich, user-configurable, high-density managed Ethernet switch for use in areas where there were multiple network devices and network traffic needed management."
