High-Density, Resilient Deployment Switch Solution for Growing Gigabit Networking Enterprise, Campus and Data Centres
For the growing Gigabit networking demand, PLANET provides the new generation Stackable Gigabit Switch solution, SGSW-24040 series Switch to fulfill the need of large scale of network deployment in the enterprises, Telecoms or campus. The PLANET SGSW-24040 series Switch, the SGSW-24040 and the SGSW-24040R, is the Layer 2 Managed Stackable Gigabit Switch which provides 24 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports, 4 shared Gigabit SFP slots, and 2 dedicated High-Speed HDMI-like interfaces for stacking with the series of switches. Up to 16 units, 384 Gigabit Ethernet ports can be managed by a stacking group and you can add ports and functionality as needed. The 2 built-in stacking ports providing 5Gbps bandwidth and up to 20Gbps Bi-directional speed, it can handle extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking for backbone or high capacity network server with 68Gbps switching fabric per unit. The stacking technology also enables the chassis-based switches to be integrated into SGSW-24040 series Managed Switch but without the expensive up-front cost.
Cost-effective IPv6 Managed Gigabit Switch Solution for SMB
The SGSW-24040 series supports both IPv4 and IPv6 management functions. They can work with original IPv4 network structure and further support the new IPv6 network structure in the future. With easy and friendly management interfaces and plenty of management functions included, the SGSW-24040 series is the best choice for ISP to build the IPv6 FTTx edge service and for SMB to connect with the IPv6 network.

High Reliability Stacking Management
The SGSW-24040 series applies the advantage of stackable technology to manage the stack group with one single IP address, which helps network managers to easily manage a stack of switches instead of connecting and setting each unit one by one. Through its high bandwidth tunnel and stacking technology, the SGSW-24040 series gives the enterprises, service providers and Telecoms flexible control over port density, uplinks and switch stack performance. Stack redundancy of the SGSW-24040 series ensures data integrity be retained even if one switch in the stack fails. You can even hot-swap switches without disrupting the network, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the LAN for catering to increasing bandwidth demands.

Robust Layer 2 Features
The SGSW-24040 series can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as dynamic Port link aggregation, Q-in-Q VLAN, private VLAN, Multiple Spanning Tree protocol (MSTP), Layer 2 to Layer 4 QoS, bandwidth control and IGMP Snooping. The SGSW-24040 series provides 802.1Q Tagged VLAN, and the VLAN groups allowed will be maximally up to 255. Via aggregation of supporting ports, the SGSW-24040 series allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining multiple ports. It enables maximum up to 12 groups of 16 ports for port link aggregation, and supports fail-over as well.
Easy and Friendly Traffic Control
PLANET SGSW-24040 series is loaded with powerful but easy 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, such as VoIP, video streaming and multicast applications. The embedded handy QoS configuration wizard helps you set up a typical network application rules easily and quickly via Web interface. The SGSW-24040 series also empowers the enterprises or campus to take full advantages of the limited network resources and guarantees the best performance in Voice and Video conferencing transmission.
Efficient and Secure Management
For efficient management, the SGSW-24040 series Managed Ethernet Switch is equipped with console, WEB and SNMP management interfaces. With the built-in Web-Based management interface, the SGSW-24040 series offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration facility. The SGSW-24040 series supports standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and can be managed via any standard-based management software. For text-based management, the SGSW-24040 series can be accessed via Telnet and the console port. Moreover, the SGSW-24040 series offers secure remote management by supporting SSH ,SSL and SNMPv3 connection which encrypt the packet content at each session.
Enhanced Security
The SGSW-24040 series offers comprehensive Layer 2 to Layer 4 Access Control List (ACL) for enforcing security to the edge. It can be used to restrict network access by denying packets based on source and destination IP address, TCP/UDP ports or defined typical network applications. Its protection mechanism also comprises of 802.1x Port-Based and MAC-Based user and device authentication. With the private VLAN function, communications between edge ports can be protected to ensure user privacy. New SGSW-24040 series net Security also provides DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard and Dynamic ARP Inspection functions to prevent IP snooping from attack and discard ARP packets with invalid MAC address. The network administrators can now construct highly secured corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.
Flexibility and Extension Solution
The two mini-GBIC slots built in the SGSW-24040 series support Dual-Speed, 100Base-FX and 1000Base-SX/LX SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) fibre-optic modules, that means, the administrator now can flexibly choose the suitable SFP transceiver according to the transmission distance or the transmission speed required. The distance can be extended from 550 meters (Multi-Mode fibre) up to above 10/50/70/120 kilometres (Single-Mode fibre or WDM fibre). They are well suited for applications within the enterprise data centres and distributions.
AC/DC Power Redundant to Ensure Continuous Operation (SGSW-24040R)
Particularly for the SGSW-24040R, it is equipped with one 100~240V AC power supply unit and one DC -48V power supply unit to provide an enhanced reliable and scalable redundant power supply installation. The continuous power system is specifically designed to fulfil the demands of high tech facilities requiring the highest power integrity. The -48V DC power supply implemented makes SGSW-24040R the telecom level device that can be located at the electronic room.
