1.2 About the Switch
The PLANET GSW-2416SF is a 24-Port 10/100/1000Mbps Web Smart non-blocking wire-speed performance Ethernet Switch. With a 48Gbps internal switching fabric, the Switch can handle extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high capacity servers. The GSW-2416SF could recognize up to 8K MAC Address table and provides 400KB on-chip frame buffer. They offer wire-speed packet transfer performance without risk of packet loss. With high data throughput, the GSW-2416SF provides the most convenient for user to upgrade their network to Gigabit environment.
All RJ-45 copper interfaces support 10/100/1000Mbps Auto-Negotiation for optimal speed detection through RJ-45 Category 6, 5 or 5e cables. Also, all the ports support Auto-MDI/MDI-X that can automatically detect the type of connection to any Ethernet device without requiring special straight or crossover cables. 24-Port TP by default and together with 16-SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable), shared with port#9 to port #24, make the switch be a 16-Port Gigabit Fiber Switch with mini GBIC fiber-optic module installed that shall provide long distance fiber connectivity.
The GSW-2416SF provides Smart management functions through the Web management interface. Functions such as per port speed, duplex, IEEE 802.3x flow-control settings and 802.1p QoS settings, Trunking and Port-Base VLAN, all can be found in the friendly user interface of your web browser. These features provide a cost-effective way to manage the devices from Internet whenever you are at work or at home.
