1. Introduction
1-1. Overview of SS2GD8IP/IPH
SS2GD8IP/IPH, a 8-Port GbE L2 Plus PoE Managed Switch with 2 SFP Dual
Media Switch, is a standard switch that meets all IEEE 802.3/u/x/z Gigabit Ethernet
specifications. The switch included 6-Port 10/100/1000Mbps TP and 2-Port Gigabit
TP/SFP Fiber management Ethernet switch. It can be managed through RS-232
serial port via directly connection, or through Ethernet port using CLI or Web-based
management unit, associated with SNMP agent. With the SNMP agent, the network
administrator can logon the switch to monitor, configure and control each port’s
activity in a friendly way.
The overall network management is enhanced and the network efficiency is
also improved to accommodate high bandwidth applications. In addition, the switch
features comprehensive and useful function such as ACL, IP-MAC Binding, DHCP
Snooping (Includes Option 82), QoS (Quality of Service), Spanning Tree, VLAN,
Port Trunking, Bandwidth Control, Port Security, SNMP/RMON, IGMPv3 Snooping
capability via the intelligent software. It is suitable for both metro-LAN and office
application.
This PSE switch also complies with IEEE 802.3af, its advanced auto-sensing
algorithm enables providing power devices (PD) discovery, classification, current
limit, and other necessary functions. It also supports high safety with short circuit
protection and power-out auto-detection to PD.
Others the switch increase support the Power saving for reduce the power
consumption with "ActiPHY Power Management" and "PerfectReach Power
Management" two technique.It could efficient saving the switch power with auto
detect the client idle and cable length to provide different power.
In this switch, Port 7 and Port 8 include two types of media --- TP and SFP
Fiber (LC, BiDi LC…); this port supports 10/100/1000Mbps TP or 1000Mbps SFP
Fiber with auto-detected function. 1000Mbps SFP Fiber transceiver is used for high-
speed connection expansion.

10/100/1000Mbps TP is a standard Ethernet port that meets all IEEE
802.3/u/x/z Gigabit, Fast Ethernet specifications. 1000Mbps SFP Fiber transceiver
is a Gigabit Ethernet port that fully complies with all IEEE 802.3z and 1000Base-
SX/LX standards.
1000Mbps Single Fiber WDM (BiDi) transceiver is designed with an optic
Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology that transports bi-directional
full duplex signal over a single fiber simultaneously.
For upgrading firmware, please refer to the Section 3-21 or Section 4-2-2 for
more details. The switch will not stop operating while upgrading firmware and after
that, the configuration keeps unchanged.
