High-Performance / Cost-effective / Telecom Gigabit solution for backbone of Enterprise and Networking of Data Center
The PLANET WGSW-24020 is a L2/L4 Full Managed Gigabit Switch. Since Gigabit network interface had become the basic equipment and requirement of Enterprises and Network Servers, the WGSW-24020 can handle extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high capacity server with 48Gbps switching fabric. The powerful features of QoS and Network Security make WGSW-24020 to meet the needs of effective data traffic control for ISPs and Enterprises, such as VoIP, video streaming and multicast applications.
High PerformanceThe WGSW-24020 provides 24 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports with 2 shared Gigabit SFP slots. It boasts high performance architecture of switch that is capable for providing the non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed throughput as high as 48Gbps, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the LAN for catering to increase bandwidth demands.
Robust Layer 2 FeaturesThe WGSW-24020 can be programmed for basic switch management functions such as port speed configuration, Port aggregation, VLAN, Spanning Tree protocol, QoS, bandwidth control and IGMP Snooping. The WGSW-24020 provides 802.1Q Tagged VLAN, and the VLAN groups allowed on the WGSW-24020 will be maximally up to 256. Via aggregation of supporting port, the WGSW-24020 allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining multiple ports, up to eight groups of maximum to 8-ports for trunking, and it supports fail-over as well.
Excellent Traffic ControlPLANET WGSW-24020 is loaded with powerful traffic management and QoS features to enhance services offered by telecoms. The functionality includes QoS features such as wire-speed Layer 4 traffic classifiers and bandwidth limiting that are particular useful for multi-tenant unit, multi business unit, Telco, or Network Service Provide applications. It also empowers the enterprises to take full advantages of the limited network resources and guarantees the best performance at VoIP and Video conferencing transmission.
Data Sheet
Efficient ManagementFor efficient management, the WGSW-24020 Managed Ethernet Switch is equipped with console, WEB and SNMP management interfaces. With its built-in Web-based management, the PLANET WGSW-24020 offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration facility. The PLANET WGSW-24020 supports standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and can be managed via any standard-based management software. For text-based management, the WGSW-24020 can also be accessed via Telnet and the console port. For secure remote management, the WGSW-24020 supports SSL and SSH connection which encrypt the packet content at each session.
Powerful SecurityPLANET WGSW-24020 offers comprehensive Access Control List (ACL) for enforcing security to the edge. Its protection mechanism also comprises of port-based 802.1x user and device authentication. The port-security is effective to limit the numbers of clients to pass through, so that network administrators can now construct highly secured corporate networks with time and effort considerably less than before.
Flexibility and Extension solutionThe two mini-GBIC slots are compatible with 1000Base-SX/LX and WDM SFP(Small Factor Pluggable) fiber-optic modules. The distance can be extended from 550 meters (Multi-Mode fiber) up to above 10/50/70/120 kilometers (Single-Mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for using within the enterprise data centers and distributions.
