CCD Networking Pty Ltd - Planet WGSW-24040

High-Performance, Cost-effective Gigabit solution for backbone of Enterprise and Networking of Data Centre
The PLANET WGSW-24040 series Switch, the WGSW-24040 and the WGSW-24040R, is the Layer 2 Managed Gigabit Switch which can handle extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking to an Enterprise backbone or high capacity network server with 48Gbps switching fabric. The powerful features of QoS and network security make WGSW-24040 series Switch to offer effective data traffic control for ISPs and Enterprises, such as VoIP, video streaming and multicast applications. It is ideal for the core layer of campus, enterprise networks and the aggregation layer of IP metropolitan networks.

High Performance
The WGSW-24040 series provides 24 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports with 4 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 increasing bandwidth demands.

Robust Layer 2 Features
The WGSW-24040 series can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as dynamic Port link aggregation, Q-in-Q VLAN, private VLAN, Rapid Spanning Tree protocol, Layer 2 to Layer 4 QoS, bandwidth control and IGMP Snooping. The WGSW-24040 series provides 802.1Q Tagged VLAN, and the VLAN groups allowed will be maximally up to 255. Via aggregation of supporting ports, the WGSW-24040 series allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining multiple ports. It enables maximum up to 12 groups of 16 ports for trunking, and supports fail-over as well.

Excellent Traffic Control
The WGSW-24040 series 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 in VoIP and Video conferencing transmission.

Efficient Management
For efficient management, the WGSW-24040 series Managed Ethernet Switch is equipped with console, WEB and SNMP management interfaces. With the built-in Web-based management interface, the PLANET WGSW-24040 series offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration facility. The WGSW-24040 series supports standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and can be managed via any standard-based management software. For text-based management, the WGSW-24040 series can be accessed via Telnet and the console port. Moreover, the WGSW-24040 series offers secure remote management by supporting SNMPv3 connection which encrypts the packet content at each session.

Powerful Security
PLANET WGSW-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, communication between edge ports can be prevented to ensure user privacy. The 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 built in the WGSW-24040 series are compatible with 1000Base-SX/LX and WDM SFP (Small Factor Pluggable) fibre-optic modules. 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 (WGSW-24040R)
particularly for the WGSW-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 WGSW-24040R the telecom level device that can be located at the electronic room.
