1. I
NTRODUCTION
The GEP-1070 is a Layer-2 managed Gigabit PoE Switch with 8-port UTP for Gigabit
Ethernet cable plus 2-port SFP for Gigabit fiber link. It provides a broad range of
management features for Layer 2 switching to deliver high levels of performance that are
commensurate with Gigabit Ethernet networking. With the Power over Ethernet (PoE)
features, it simplifies power installation in an environment where remote PoE devices are
required.
The Gigabit PoE switch provides 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet connections with many
networking capabilities per port basis including Security, QoS service, Bandwidth Control,
Spanning Tree Protocol, VLAN, IGMP, SNMP settings, PoE time scheduling functions,
keep-alive autochecking, etc.
The default configuration can be used for most of the features provided by this switch.
However, there are many options that you should configure to ma ximizes the switch
performance for your particular network environment.
The Gigabit PoE switch is equipped with a power supply to operate under 100~240 VAC,
50~60 Hz. The AC power cord connector is at the rear panel next to the power on/off switch.
Turning on the power, the switch will first perform
“
self-diagnostic
” test, and take about 5-
10 seconds to complete the process.
1.1. Key Features
The Managed Gigabit PoE Ethernet Switch is equipped with an 8-port RJ45 connector for
10/100/1000M Ethernet, plus 2-port SFP connectors for Gigabit Fiber modules. The 8-port
Gigabit RJ45 connectors are with IEEE802.3af/at PoE+ 30W capability to provide high
Power over Ethernet (PoE) to the connected PD devices. In addition to the LED indicators
for each port, a built-in push button is also provided for switch reset.
The key features are as the following table;
