2. INSTALLATION
This section describes the functionalities of the Switch components and guides how to install it on the desktop or shelf. Basic
knowledge of networking is assumed. Please read this chapter completely before continuing.
2.1 Product Description
PLANET FGSW-2402PVS/FGSW-2620PVS/FGSW-2612PVS, the
Switch
, provides 24 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet ports with
2 open slots or 2 fixed 10/100/1000Mbps ports (port25, 26). The two open slots can be installed by either 10/100Base-TX TP
port or 1000Base-T TP port and 100Base-FX or 1000Base-SX/ LX fiber-optic interfaces. The distance range is 100 meters
(TP) and 2 kilometers (Multi-mode, ST or SC), up to 15 kilometers (Single-mode, SC). The Switch with non-blocking
backplane and simplifies the task of upgrading your LAN to cater for increased bandwidth demand.
Both switches are equipped with non-blocking 8.8Gbps backplane greatly simplify the tasks of upgrading your LAN to cater to
increased bandwidth demands. The PoE, in-line power, following the standard IEEE802.3af, makes the both switches able to
power 24/12 PoE devices at the distance up to 100 meters through the 4-pair Cat 5/5e UTP wire.
Equipped with console and Web interface, the Web Smart Ethernet Switch can be programmed for basic Switch
management functions such as port speed configuration, Port Trunking, VLAN, Port Mirroring, QoS, bandwidth control, Misc
Configuration.
2.1.1 Product Overview
The Switch are web smart fast Ethernet switch which with IEEE802.3af Power over Ethernet power injector built-in. Except 24
RJ-45 10/100Mbps TP ports, the switches provide up to two 100Mbps or 1000Mbps fiber ports, and two 10/100Mbps TP or
1000Base-T ports for cost effective high-performance network connectivity. All or half (FGSW-2612PVS) of the 24 TP ports
are able to supply standard 48VDC power that can supply power to 24/12 IEEE802.3af compliant Ethernet devices.
With its 8.8Gbps non-blocking switch fabric, the PLANET Switch can also provide a local, high bandwidth, Fast Ethernet
network for your departmental backbone plus the ability to trunk four ports (800Mbps) to enable switch-to-switch backbone.
The advanced functionality of the Switch eliminates traditional problems associated with the use of Ethernet. Users can be
segregated using built-in VLAN functionality. These, coupled with the flexible fiber module options, make the Switch one of
the best and most cost-effective MTU switch solutions for Multi-tenant service providers.
This product 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,
Switch could recognize up to 6K different MAC address and enables filtering and forwarding at full wire speed.
