2.1.1 Product Overview
The PLANET GSW-4804SF is a High-Density, Rack-mountable; Layer 2 Web Smart Gigabit Switch. Since Gigabit network
interface had become the basic equipment and requirement of Enterprise and Network Servers, with 96Gbps switching fabric,
the GSW-4804SF 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 GSW-4804SF to meets the needs of effective data traffic
control for ISP and Enterprise, such as VoIP, video streaming and multicast application.
Per Gigabit port with 9K Jumbo frame supported, can handle extremely large amounts of data transmission in a secure topology
linking to a backbone or high-power servers, 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
10/20/30/40/50/70/120 kilometers (Single-Mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for using within the enterprise data
centers and distributions.
For efficient management, the GSW-4804SF Web Smart Switch is equipped with Web interfaces. With its built-in Web-based
management, the Switch offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration facility. The GSW-4804SF
can be programmed for basic switch management functions such as Port speed configuration, bandwidth control, Link
Aggregation, Access Control List (ACL), VLAN, MAC address binding / filtering / learning / aging time setting. QoS, IGMP
Snooping and Port Mirror function.
