2.1 Product Description
The PLANET GSW-1600/GSW-2400 is a 16/24-port 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet switch
with non-blocking wire-speed performance. With 32/44Gbps internal switching fabric,
the GSW-1600/GSW-2400 can handle extremely large amounts of data transmission in a
secure topology linking to a backbone or high-power servers. The GSW-1600 /GSW-2400
could recognize up to 4K/32K MAC Address table and provides 272 KB /2MB on-chip frame
buffer. The GSW-1600 /GSW-2400 offers wire-speed packet transfer performance without
risk of packet loss. The high data throughput, it can provide the most convenient for user
to upgrade their network to Gigabit environment.
The GSW-2400 also provides 2 Mini-GBIC interfaces for fiber extension to uplink to a
server or network backbone.
2.1.1 Product Overview
PLANET GSW-1600/2400 is a gigabit Ethernet switch with 16/24 RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps
ports for high-speed network connectivity. The GSW-1600/2400 can also automatically
identify and determine the correct transmission speed and half/full duplex mode of the
attached devices with its 16/24 ports. The Gigabit port can handle large amounts of data
transmission in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high-power servers.
This products also supports store-and-forward forwarding scheme to ensure low latency
and high data integrity, eliminates unnecessary traffic and relieves congestion on critical
network paths. With an intelligent address recognition algorithm, GSW-1600/2400 could
recognize up to 4K/32K different MAC address and enables filtering and forwarding at full
wire speed.
