Full-Functioned Layer 2 / Layer 4 Managed Switch
for Enterprise and Campus Networking
The PLANET SGSW-2840 is a 24-Port 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet Switch
with 4-Port Gigabit TP / SFP Combo interfaces, which boasts high
performance switch architecture. The SGSW-2840 is capable of
providing non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed throughput as
high as 12.8 Gbps, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading
the LAN for catering to increase bandwidth demands. Its four
built-in GbE uplink ports also offer incredible extensibility,
flexibility and connectivity to the core switch or servers.
Robust Layer 2 Features
The SGSW-2840 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. It
provides IEEE 802.1Q Tagged VLAN and the VLAN groups allowed on the
SGSW-2840 will be maximally up to 256. Via aggregation of supporting
port, the SGSW-2840 allows the operation of high-speed trunk
combining multiple ports. Maximum up to 8 ports can be assigned for
8 trunk groups and it supports fail-over as well.
Excellent Traffic Control
PLANET SGSW-2840 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 applications that are particular useful for
multi-tenant unit, multi business unit, Telco, or Network Service
Provider. It also empowers the enterprises to take full advantages
of the limited network resources and guarantees the best performance
in VoIP and Video conferencing transmission.
Efficient IP Stacking Management
The SGSW-2840 supports IP Stacking function that helps network
managers to easily configure up to 36 switches in the same series
via one single IP address instead of connecting and setting each
unit one by one. For efficient management, the SGSW-2840 is equipped
with console, WEB and SNMP management interfaces. With its built-in
Web-based management, the PLANET SGSW-2840 offers an easy-to-use,
platform-independent management and configuration facility. It
supports standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and can
be managed via any standard-based management software. For
text-based management, the SGSW-2840 can be accessed via Telnet and
the console port. Moreover, the SGSW-2840 offers secure remote
management by supporting SSL and SSH connection which encrypt the
packet content at each session.
Powerful Security
The PLANET SGSW-2840 offers comprehensive Access Control List (ACL)
for enforcing security to the edge. Its protection mechanism also
comprises port-based IEEE 802.1x user, Web Authentication user and
device authentication. The port-security is effective in limiting
the numbers of clients pass through so that network administrators
can now construct highly secured corporate networks with
considerably less time and effort than before.
Flexibility and Extension solution
The four mini-GBIC slots are compatible with 1000Base-SX/LX and WDM
SFP (Small Form Factor Pluggable) fiber-optic modules. The distance
can be extended from 550 meters (Multi-Mode fiber cable) or up to
10/30/50/70/120 kilometers (Single-Mode fiber or WDM fiber cable).
They are well suited for applications within the enterprises data
centers and distributions.
