INSTALLATION
This section describes the functionalities of GSD-801/501’s components and guides how
to install it on the desktop or shelf. Basic knowledge of networking is assumed. Please
read this chapter completely before continuing.
2.1 Product Description
PLANET’s GSD-801 and GSD-501 is 8/5 ports 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet switches in a
compact housing for easily desktop placement or wall-mounting.
GSD-801 provides 16Gbps non-blocking switch fabric, 8k MAC Address table and GSD501 provides 10Gbps non-blocking switch fabric, 4k MAC Address table.
Both the GSD-801 and the GSD-501 are support 802.3x full duplex ow control and also
offers wire-speed packet transfer performance without risk of packet loss.
All eight/ve RJ-45 copper interfaces support 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiation for
optimal speed detection through RJ-45 Category 3, 4, 5 or above cables. MDI/MDI-X auto
detection is provided for direct wire connection to any Ethernet device without requiring
cross-over cables.
2.1.1 Product Overview
PLANET GSD-801/501 is a gigabit Ethernet switch with 8/5 RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps
ports for high-speed network connectivity. GSD-801/501 can also automatically identify
and determine the correct transmission speed and half/full duplex mode of the attached
devices with its 8/5 ports. The Gigabit port can handle large amounts of data transmission
in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high-power servers.
This product also supports store-and-forward forwarding scheme to ensure low latency
and high data integrity, eliminates unnecessary trafc and relieves congestion on critical
network paths. With an intelligent address recognition algorithm, GSD-801/501 could
recognize up to 8K/4K different MAC address and enables ltering and forwarding at full
wire speed.
