1. INTRODUCTION

GSW-5270 is a high-density smart switch that provides the ultimate bandwidth and versatile features for large workgroups or backbones with the aggregated 17.6Gbps bandwidth. We offer outstanding connectivity by providing different 48-port TP 10/100Mbps with 4-port Gigabit TP and 2-Port mini-GBIC SFP interfaces to interoperate with your copper or fiber network and also to provide non-blocking, wire-speed switching performance for maximum throughput.

GSW-5270 is equipped with 48-port TP 10/100Mbps with 4-port Gigabit TP and 2-Port mini-GBIC SFP reaching

17.6Gbps back plane bandwid t h thus creating high-speed backbone data transmissions and meets the requirement of heavy-duty bandwidth-consuming applications. Each RJ-45 port supports Auto-MDIX allowing unlinking to another switch directly without cable selection hassle. The two SFP interfaces allow you to extend the network connection distance up to 70km or to integrate other advanced solutions for investment protection.

It supports versatile smart features efficiently to manage network resources. The Trunk function enables cascading of two or more devices with a larger bandwidth; up to 6 trunk groups eliminate network bottlenecks from increased bandwidth. In order to reduce latency, increase security for confidential data and save costs for expensive routers, you can partition the network into 4096 groups of VLANs using 802.1Q Tagging technology. More over, the port-based QoS and 802.1p tagged QoS allow you to priorities traffic for time-sensitive applications.

2. HARDWARE DESCRIPTION

2.1. Front Panel

LED Indicators:

Comprehensive LED indicators display the status of the switch and the network (see the LED Indicators chapter below).

100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet Ports (Port 1~48):

These ports support network speeds of either 10Mbps or 100Mbps, and can operate in half- and full- duplex transfer modes. These ports also supports automatic MDI/MDIX crossover detection function gives true “plug and play” capability, just need to plug-in the network cable to the hub directly and don’t care if the end node is NIC (Network Interface Card) or switch and hub.

Combo mini-GBIC Ports (Port 49~50)

The Switch is equipped with two combo mini-GBIC ports, supported optional 1000BASE-SX/LX mini-GBIC module. The 1000BASE-T port 49 and 50 are the same ports with the mini-GBIC port 49 and 50, when plug in the mini-GBIC module, the device will activate mini-GBIC, and the RJ45 port will be disabled.

1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Ports (Port 49~52):

The Switch four Gigabit twisted pair ports, supported auto negotiable 10/100/1000Mbps and auto MDI/MDIX crossover detection function, this function gives true “plug and play” capability, just need to plug-in the network cable to the hub directly and don’t care if the end node is NIC (Network Interface Card) or switch and hub. These ports can operate in half-duplex mode for 10/100Mbps and full- duplex mode for 10/100/1000Mbps.

Reset:

The Reset button is to reset all the setting back to the factory default. Note:

Note

1. When the port was set to “Forced Mode”, the Auto MDI/MDIX will be disabled.

2. Be sure that you recorded the setting of your device, else all the setting will be erased when pressing the “Reset” button.

2.2. LED Indicators

The front panel LEDs provides instant status feedback, and, helps monitor and troubleshoot when needed.

Power and System

PWR: Power Indicator On :

Off : SYS: Management Indicator

Blinking : When the CPU is working, the System LED is On/Off : The CPU is not working.
