WGSW-48040

48-Port 10/100/1000Mbps with 4 Shared SFP Managed Security Switch

High-Density / Cost-effective / Telecom class Gigabit solution for Enterprise backbone and Data Center Networking

The PLANET WGSW-48040 is a High-Density, Rack-mountable, L2/L4 Full Managed Gigabit Switch. Since Gigabit network interface had become the basic equipment and requirement of Enterprise and Network Servers, with 96Gbps switching fabric, the WGSW-48040 can handle extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high capacity servers. The powerful QoS and Network Security features make WGSW-48040 to meets the needs of effective data traffic control for both ISP and Enterprise, such VoIP, video streaming and multicast application.

High Performance

The PLANET WGSW-48040 provides 48 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports with 4 shared Gigabit SFP slots. It boasts a high performance switch architecture that is capable of providing non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed throughput as high as 96Gbps, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the LAN for catering to increase bandwidth demands.

Robust Layer 2 Features

The WGSW-48040 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-48040 provides 802.1Q Tagged VLAN. The VLAN groups allowed on the WGSW-48040 will be maximally up to 255 .Via supporting port Link Aggregation, the WGSW-48040 allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining multiple ports, up to eight groups of maximum 8-ports for trunking, and it supports fail-over as well.

Excellent Traffic Control

PLANET WGSW-48040 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.

Efficient Management

For efficient management, the WGSW-48040 Managed Ethernet Switch is equipped with console, WEB and SNMP management interfaces. With its built-in Web-based management, the PLANET WGSW-48040 offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration facility. The PLANET WGSW-48040 supports standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and can be managed via any standard-based management software. For text-based management, WGSW-48040 can also be accessed via Telnet and the console port. For secure remote management, the WGSW-48040 supports SSL and SSH connection which encrypts the packet content at each session.

Powerful Security

PLANET WGSW-48040 offers comprehensive Access Control List (ACL) for enforcing security to the edge. Its protection mechanisms comprise port-based 802.1x user and device authentication. The port-security is effective in limit the numbers of clients pass through, so that network administrators can now construct highly secured corporate networks with time and effort considerably less than before.

Flexibility and Extension Solution

The four 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.
