Cost-effective IPv6 Managed Gigabit Switch solution for SMB
Nowadays, lots of electronic products or mobile devices can browse the Internet, which means the need of IP Address
increases. However, the current IPv4 network infrastructure is not capable enough to provide IP Address to each single
users/Clients. The situation forces the ISP to build up the IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) network infrastructure speedily.
To fulfill the demand, PLANET releases the IPv6 management Gigabit Ethernet Switch, WGSW-28040 series Managed
Switch. It supports both IPv4 and IPv6 management functions. It can work with original network structure (IPv4) and also
support the new network structure (IPv6) in the future. With easy and friendly management interfaces and plenty of
management functions included, the WGSW-28040 series Managed Switch is the best choice for ISP to build the IPv6 FTTx
edge service and for SMB to connect with IPv6 network.
High-Performance, Cost-effective Gigabit Networking Solution for SMB
The PLANET WGSW-28040 series is a Layer 2 Managed Gigabit Switch which can handle extremely large amounts of data
in a secure topology linking to an Enterprise backbone or high capacity network server with 56Gbps switching fabric. The
advanced features of QoS and network security included enable the WGSW-28040 series to offer effective data traffic control
for SMB and Enterprises, such as VoIP, video streaming and multicast applications. It is ideal for the enterprise networks and
the aggregation layer of IP metropolitan networks.
High Performance
The WGSW-28040 series provides 28 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports in which with 4 shared Gigabit SFP slots. It
boasts high performance architecture of switch that is capable for providing the non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed
throughput as high as 56Gbps, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the LAN for catering to increasing bandwidth
demands.
Robust Layer 2 Features
The WGSW-28040 series can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as dynamic Port link
aggregation, Q-in-Q VLAN, private VLAN, Multiple Spanning Tree protocol, Layer 2 QoS, bandwidth control and IGMP
Snooping. The WGSW-28040 series provides 802.1Q Tagged VLAN, and the VLAN groups allowed will be maximally up to
255. Via aggregation of supporting ports, the WGSW-28040 series allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining
multiple ports. It enables maximum up to 8 groups of 8 ports for trunking and supports fail-over as well.
