1.2 Product Description
Cost-Optimized Managed PoE+ Switch for Small and Medium Businesses
PLANET GS-4210-24P2S is an ideal Gigabit PoE Switch which provides cost-effective advantage to local area network and is
widely accepted in the SMB office network. It offers intelligent Layer 2 data packet switching and management functions,
friendly web user interface and stable operation. The model complies with IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+)
at an affordable price. The GS-4210-24P2S is equipped with 24 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet ports and 2
100/1000Base-X SFP interfaces with inner power system. Its 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports are integrated with 802.3at PoE+
injector function on all ports. It offers a rack-mountable, affordable, safe and reliable power solution for SMBs deploying Power
over Ethernet networks, or requiring enhanced data security and network traffic management.
IEEE 802.3at/af Compliant Power Source Switch
The PoE in-line power following the IEEE 802.3at/af standard makes the GS-4210-24P2S able to deliver Gigabit speed data
and up to 30 watts of power per port to 24 PoE compliant powered devices (PDs) with a combined power output budget of up to
300 watts. The GS-4210-24P2S provides more flexibility in power requirement for all kinds of PDs with affordable installation
costs.
High-performance Switch Architecture
The GS-4210-24P2S provides 24 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports and 2 100/1000Base-X SFP slots. It boasts a
high-performance switch architecture capable of providing the non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed throughput as high as
52Gbps, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the LAN for catering to increasing bandwidth demands.
Robust Layer 2 Features
The GS-4210-24P2S can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as dynamic port link aggregation,
802.1Q VLAN, Spanning Tree protocol (STP), Rapid Spanning Tree protocol (RSTP) and Multiple Spanning Tree protocol
(MSTP), IGMP Querier and IGMP Snooping. Via aggregation of supporting ports, the GS-4210-24P2S allows the operation of a
high-speed trunk to combine with multiple ports such as a 32Gbps fat pipe and supports fail-over as well. The Link Layer
Discovery Protocol (LLDP) feature is also included and used to discover basic information about neighboring devices on the
local broadcast domain.
Efficient Traffic Control
The GS-4210-24P2S 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.
