1.2 About the Switch
The Ethernet Switch is equipped with unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable ports providing dedicated 10
or 100Mbps bandwidth. WGSD-1020 supports MDI-X/ MDI convertible on each 10/100 port and 2 Gi-
gabit Switch port that can be used for uplinking to another switch. The dual speed ports use standard
twisted-pair cabling and are ideal for segmenting networks into small, connected sub-networks. Each
100M port can support up to 200Mbps of throughput in full-duplex mode. Each 1000M port can support
up to 2Gbps in Full-duplex mode.
In addition, the Switch is also support 2 Ethernet Gigabit ports to uplink to a server or network backbone.
These Gigabit Switches are designed for Plug and Play installation, allows the network administrator to
simply connect the network and power cables and the Switching/bridging functions begin automatically.
The front panel of these 10/100M plus Gigabit Switches provides LEDs for easy recognition of the switch
operation status and for troubleshooting. These LED indicators display the power status for the system
and Link/Act, 100, for each10/100M port. Link/Act, 1000/100, full-duplex for each Gigabit port.
With its build-in Web-based Management, managing and configuring the WGSD-1020 Intelligent Switch
becomes easier.
From cabinet management to port-level control and monitoring, you can visually configure and manage
your network via Web Browser, just click your mouse instead of typing cryptic command strings. How-
ever, the WGSD-1020 Intelligent Switch can also be managed via Console, or third-party SNMP
Management.
