Network Switches
Network switches are essential for the smooth operation of IP systems. They connect multiple devices—such as computers, servers, wireless access points, and cameras—enabling seamless communication across the network. At Controlware, we recognize how selecting the right switch technology can significantly enhance network efficiency, performance, and total cost of ownership (TCO).
