24-Port Web Smart Gigabit Ethernet Switch with 4 Shared SFP
GSW-2404SF
Preliminary Release Sep. 2006

The PLANET GSW-2404SF 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 huge amounts of data in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high capacity servers. The GSW-2404SF could recognize up to 8K MAC Address table and provides 500KB on-chip frame buffer. They offer wire-speed packet transfer performance without risk of packet loss. With high data throughput, the GSW-2404SF 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 4 shared SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable), shared with port -21 to port-24, make the switch be a 4-Port Gigabit Fiber Switch with mini GBIC fiber-optic module installed that shall provide long distance fiber connectivity.

The GSW-2404SF provides Smart management functions through the Web management interface. Functions such as per port speed, duplex, IEEE 802.3x flow-control settings and QoS settings, Trunking and VLAN, Port mirroring, IGMP Snooping and IEEE 802.1x. 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.

Application

Backbone Switch

With up to 48 Gigabits per second of non-blocking switch fabric, these switches can easily provide the high bandwidth required both now and in the future.  Max. 4 SFP interfaces can distribute the network to a long distance as soon as mini-GBIC fiber-optic module installed.

Server Farm Switch

Providing either 24 TP or up to 4 SFP Gigabit Ethernet ports, the Switch are ideal for use as a server farm switch connecting your servers and powerful desktops local or remote over fiber-optic. Port Trunk support also increases the bandwidth capacity between switches.
