1.2 Product Description
Cost-optimized Managed Switch for Small and Medium Businesses
PLANET Managed Switch is an ideal Gigabit Switch which provides cost-effective advantage to local area network and is widely
accepted in the SMB office network. It offers intelligent L ayer 2 data packet s witc hi ng an d mana geme nt funct i ons, friendly web user interface and stable operation. Besides the hot IPv6/IPv4 management and abundant L2/L4 switching functions,
the GS-4210 Series comes with fanless feature and green technology to provide a quiet, energy-saving, high-speed and reliable
office network environment. The GS-4210-16P2S and GS-4210-24P2S comply with IEEE 802.3atPower over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) at an affordable price. Its 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports are integrated with 802.3at PoE+ injector function on all ports.
The Managed Switch is equipped with 16/24/48 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports and 2/4 additional100/1000BASE-X SFP interfaces with inner power system. It offers a rack-mountable, affordable, safe and reliable Gigabit
network switch solution for SMBs deploying networks, or requiring enhanced data security and network traffic management.
IEEE 802.3at/af Compliant Power Source Switch (GS-4210-16P2S and GS-4210-24P2S)
The PoE in-line power following the IEEE 802.3at/af standard makes the GS-4210-16P2S and GS-4210-24P2S able to deliver
Gigabit speed data and up to 30 watt s of power per port to 16/24 PoE compliant powered devices (PDs) with a combined power
output budget of up to 240/300 watts. The GS-4210-16P2S and GS-4210-24P2S provides more flexibility in power requirement
for all kinds of PDs with affordable installation costs.
High-performance Switch Architecture
The Managed Switch provides 16/24/48 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports and 2/4 100/1000BASE-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 36/52Gbps, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the LAN for catering to increasing bandwidth demands.
Robust Layer 2 Features
The Managed Switch can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as dynamic port link aggregation,
802.1Q VLAN and Q-in-Q VLAN, Multiple Spanning Tree protocol (MSTP), Loop and BPDU Guard, IGMP Snooping, and MLD
Snooping. Via the link aggregation, the Managed Switch 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. Also, the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is the Layer 2
protocol included to help discover basic information about neighboring devices on the local broadcast domain.

Efficient Traffic Control
The Managed Switch 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 advantage of the limited network resources.
Enhanced and Secure Management
For efficient management, the Managed Switch is equipped with console, Web, Telnet and SNMP management interfaces. With
the built-in Web-based management interface, the Managed Switch offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management
and configuration facility. By supporting 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 and the console
port. Moreover, the Managed Switch offers secure remote management by supporting HTTPS and SNMPv3 connections which
encrypt the packet content at each session.
Powerful Security
PLANET GS-4210 series Managed Switch offer comprehensive IPv4/IPv6 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
authentication, which can be deployed with RADIUS to ensure the port level security and block illegal users. With the protected port function, communication between edge ports can be prevented to guarantee user privacy. Furthermore, port security
function allows limiting the number of network devices on a given port.
Advanced Network Security
The Managed Switch also provides DHCP snooping, IP source guard and dynamic A RP 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.
Flexible Extension Solution
The two mini-GBIC slots built in the Managed Switch are compatible with the 100BASE-FX/1000BASE-SX/LX SFP (Small
Form-factor Pluggable) fiber transceiver to uplink to backbone switch and monitor center in long distance. The distance can be
extended from 550 meters to 2km (multi-mode fiber) up to above 10/20/30/40/50/60/70/120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or
WDM fiber). They are well suited for applications within the enterprise data centers and distributions.
Fanless Design (GS-4210 Ser ies)
Adopting the latest chip process and green technology, the GS-4210 series successfully reduces substantial power
consumption with the fanless and noiseless design collocating with the effective cooler. Therefore, the GS-4210 series are able
to operate stably and quietly in any environment without affecting its performance.
