are particular useful for multi-tenant unit, multi business unit, Telcom, or network service provider applications. It also
empowers the enterprises to take full advantages of the limited network resources and guarantees the best performance in
VoIP and video conferencing transmission.
Efficient and Secure Management
For efficient management, the WGSD-10020 Managed Switch series is equipped with console, Web and SNMP management
interfaces. With the built-in Web-based management interface, the WGSD-10020 series offers an easy-to-use,
platform-independent management and configuration facility. The WGSD-10020 series supports standard Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) and can be managed via any standard-based management software. For text-based
management, the WGSD-10020 series can be accessed via Telnet and the console port. The console port with Cisco-like
command line interface allows the users to make it work more easily. Moreover, the WGSD-10020 series offers secure,
remote management by supporting SSH, SSL and SNMPv3 connection which encrypt the packet content at each session.
Powerful Security
PLANET WGSD-10020 series offers 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, TCP/UDP
ports or defined typical network applications. Its protection mechanism also comprises 802.1x port-based and MAC-based
user and device authentication. With the private VLAN function, communication between edge ports can be prevented to
ensure user privacy.
Enhanced Security and Traffic Control
The WGSD-10020 series also provides DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard and Dynamic ARP Inspection functions to
prevent IP snooping from attack and discard ARP packets with invalid MAC address. The network administrators can now
construct highly-secured corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.
Flexibility and Extension Solution
The two mini-GBIC slots built in the WGSD-10020 support dual-speed as it features 100Base-FX and 1000Base-SX/LX SFP
(Small Form-factor Pluggable) fiber-optic modules, meaning the administrator now can flexibly choose the suitable SFP
transceiver according to not only the transmission distance but also the transmission speed required. The distance can be
extended from 550 meters (multi-mode fiber) and up to above 10/50/70/120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber).
They are well suited for applications within the enterprise data centers and distributions.
Intelligent SFP Diagnostic Mechanism
The WGSD-10020 series supports SFP-DDM (Digital Diagnostic Monitor) function that can easily monitor real-time
parameters of the SFP for network administrator, such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature, laser bias
current, and transceiver supply voltage.
Centralized Power Management for Gigabit Ethernet PoE Networking (WGSD-10020HP Only)
To fulfill the needs of higher power required PoE network applications with Gigabit speed transmission, the WGSDH-10020HP
features high-performance Gigabit IEEE 802.3af PoE (Up to 15.4W) and IEEE 802.3at High-Power PoE (Up to 30.8W) on
all ports. It supports advanced networking feature which optimizes the installation and power management of network devices
such as wireless access points (AP), Voice over IP (VoIP) phones, and security video cameras. The PoE capabilities also help
to reduce deployment costs for network devices like the wireless AP as a result of freeing from restrictions of power outlet
