1.2 Product Description
High-Density, Full-Functioned, Layer 2 Managed Switch for Enterprise and Campus Networking
The FGSW-2840 and FGSW-4840S is a 24/48-Port 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet Switch with 2/4-Port Gigabit and 2-Port Gigabit
SFP interfaces, which comes with a high-performance switch architecture, capable of providing non-blocking 12.8Gbps
(FGSW-2840) / 17.6Gbps (FGSW-4840S) switch fabric and wire-speed throughput at 9.5Mpps (FGSW-2840) / 13Mpps
(FGSW-4840S). Its four built-in GbE uplink ports also offer incredible extensibility, flexibility and connectivity to the core switch
or servers. The powerful features of QoS and network security offered by the FGSW-2840 / FGSW-4840S enable the switch to
perform effective data traffic control for ISP and enterprise VoIP, video streaming and multicast applications. It is ideal for the
remote access layer of campus or enterprise networks and the aggregation layer of IP metropolitan networks.
Robust Layer 2 Feature
The FGSW-2840 / FGSW-4840S can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as port mirror, port
security, port isolation and loopback detection. It also features the dynamic port link aggregation (Static Trunk and LACP),
802.1Q VLAN , Rapid Spanning Tree protocol (RSTP) and Multiple Spanning Tree protocol (MSTP), Static / Dynamic /
Filtering MAC address, IGMP Snooping, Multicast IP and Multicast Filter and DHCP filtering. Via aggregation of supporting
ports, the FGSW-2840 / FGSW-4840S allow the operation of a high-speed trunk to combine with multiple ports. It enables a
maximum of up to 6 groups of 4 ports for trunk and supports fail-over as well.
Enhanced Security
The FGSW-2840 / FGSW-4840S offer comprehensive Layer 2 to Layer 4 Access Control List (ACL) for enforcing security to
the edge. It can be used to restrict network access by denying packets based on source and destination IP address.
Efficient Traffic Control
The FGSW-2840 / FGSW-4840S is loaded with robust QoS features and powerful traffic management to enhance services to
business-class data, voice, and video solutions. The functionality includes broadcast / multicast / unicast storm control, per
port bandwidth control, 802.1p / CoS / IP DSCP QoS priority and remarking. It guarantees the best performance at VoIP and
video stream transmission, and empowers the enterprises to take full advantages of the limited network resources.
Enhanced and Secure Management
For efficient management, the FGSW-2840 / FGSW-4840S are equipped with Web, Telnet and SNMP management interfaces.
With the built-in Web-based management interface, the FGSW-2840 / FGSW-4840S offer an easy-to-use, platform-independent
management and configuration facility. By supporting the standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), the switch
can be managed via any standard management software. For text-based management, the switch can be accessed via Telnet .
