2.1 Product Description
The PLANET GSD-800S provides 8 Gigabit Ethernet Switch ports. The PLANET GSD-800S
delivers eight ports worth of high-performance, feature-rich integrated Gigabit Ethernet
switching over traditional copper cabling. The GSD-800S is capable of smart functions,
such as VLAN, Port trunking and Prot mirroring. GSD-800S can be congured by out-ofband channel via the console port (RS232) directly. Each port supports 10Mbps, 100Mbps,
and 1000Mbps as well as half/full mode and can be easily connected to corporate
backbones and servers.
2.1.1 Product Overview
PLANET GSD-800S is a gigabit Ethernet switch with 8 RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps ports
for high-speed network connectivity. GSD-800S can also automatically identify and
determine the correct transmission speed and half/full duplex mode of the attached
devices with its 8 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-800S could
recognize up to 8K different MAC address and enables ltering and forwarding at full
wire speed.

Power Notice:
1. The device is a power-required device, it means, it will not work till it is powered. If your networks should active all the time, please consider using UPS
(Uninterrupted Power Supply) for your device. It will prevent you from network
data loss or network downtime.
2. In some area, installing a surge suppression device may also help to protect
your switch from being damaged by unregulated surge or current to the Switch
or the power adapter.
2.2 Installing a GSD-800S
This part describes how to install your GSD-800S Gigabit Ethernet Switch and make
connections to the switch. Please read the following topics and perform the procedures in
the order being presented.
PLANET GSD-800S Gigabit Ethernet Switch do not need software conguration. To install
your GSD-800S on a desktop or shelf, simply complete the following steps.
2.2.1 Desktop Installation
To install a GSD-800S on a desktop or shelf, simply complete the following steps:
Step1: Attach the rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the switch.
Step2: Place the GSD-800S on a desktop or shelf near an AC power source.
Optional rack-ear for 10-inch cabinet rack mounting (RKE-10A)
NOTE:
Step3: Keep enough ventilation space between the switch and the surrounding objects
NOTE:
Step4: Connect your GSD-800S to network devices
and 19-inch cabinet rack mounting (RKE-10B) is available upon
request.
When choosing a location, please keep in mind the environmental restrictions discussed in Chapter 1, Section 4, Product
Specication.

A. Connect one end of a standard network cable to the 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports
on the front of the GSD-800S.
B. Connect the other end of the cable to the network devices such as printer serv-
ers, workstations or routers etc.
Connection to the Switch requires UTP Category 5 network
NOTE:
Step5: Supply power to the Switch.
A. Connect one end of the power cable to the GSD-800S
B. Connect the power plug of the power cable to a standard wall outlet.
When the GSD-800S receives power, the Power LED should remain solid Green.

CONFIGURATION
Unlike the unmanaged switch, GSD-800S performs series smart functions that make the
switch operate more effectively. This section will describe the common usage of the Switch
Smart Con-guration.
3.1 Preparing for conguration
3.1.1 Connecting a PC or Terminal to the RS-232 Port
When you are ready to congure the smart functions of the switch, make sure you had
connected the supplied RS-232 serial cable to the RS-232 port at the front panel of your
GSD-800S Switch and your PC.
3.1.2 Terminal Emulation Setup Program
In Windows 98/2000/XP, launch “HyperTerminal”, create a new connection, and adjust
settings as below:
● Emulation: VT-100 compatible
● Baud per second: 115200
● Data bits: 8
● Parity: None
● Stop bits: 1
● Flow Control: None
To gain a demo, please see the Figure 3-1.
