Meraki Comparable Switch

[JohnFro]

My company is currently using Cisco CBS350 48 port PoE switches. We are looking into Meraki to replace them. What would be the best Meraki switch that provides similar features as the Cisco one.

[Rasmus Hoffmann Birkelund]

MS225 series would probably be an OK fit.

Don't look for a comparable switch; look for one that has the features you need. The CBS350 has many features that are not available on the lower-end Meraki switches. But for many ofly that you don't use them anyway these features, it is very like.

Do you need stacking? If no, you can stick to the MS1xx range, if yes you at least need the MS210/225 range.
Do you need dynamic routing or redundant power supplies? You need at least MS250 range.
Do you have high ASIC needs, lot's of layer 2 clients and high performance, you need MS3xx range.

I would like to recommend the Cisco Meraki switch selector. Just select the features you need and see what is recommended.

@JohnFro as said by others, it really depends on what features you use. We use some of the same CBS350 switches for HD video distribution as they are controlled by the vendor we use. If you only use them as isolated access switches and have the version with 4x 1Gb ports, then an MS120-48 is nearest, but if you use more features, you could need all the way up to an MS250-48.
