24-Port 10/100/1000Mbps 802.3at PoE+ Managed Switch with 4 Shared SFP Ports

The WGSW-24040HP series is the latest generation of PLANET Managed Gigabit PoE Switches featuring PLANET intelligent PoE functions to improve the availability of critical business applications. The series provides IPv6/IPv4 management and built-in L2/L4 Gigabit Switching engine along with 24 10/100/1000BASE-T ports featuring 30-watt 802.3at Power over Ethernet plus (PoE+) and 4 Gigabit SFP slots. With total power budget up to 220W and 440W for different kinds of PoE applications, the series provides quick, safe and cost-effective Power over Ethernet network solutions to security IP surveillance for small businesses and enterprises.

Centralized Power Management for Gigabit Ethernet PoE Networking
To fulfill the needs of higher power required PoE network applications with Gigabit speed transmission, the WGSW-24040HP series features IEEE 802.3at PoE+ that combines up to 30 watts of power output and data per port over one CAT 5E/6 Ethernet cable. It is designed specifically to meet the demand of higher power consuming network PD (powered devices) such as IR, PTZ, speed dome cameras or even box type IP cameras with built-in fan and heater. Compliant with both 802.3at and 802.3af, the WGSW-24040HP series allows more flexibility in power requirement for a variety of PDs.

Built-in Unique PoE Functions for Powered Devices Management
As a managed PoE Switch for surveillance, wireless access and VoIP network, the WGSW-24040HP series features special PoE Management functions:
¦ PD Alive Check
¦ Scheduled Power Recycling
¦ SMTP/SNMP Trap Event Alert
¦ PoE Schedule

Intelligent Powered Device Alive-Check
The WGSW-24040HP series can be configured to monitor connected PD (Powered Device) status in real-time via ping action. Once the PD stops working and responding, the WGSW-24040HP series will resume the PoE port power and bring the PD back to work. It will greatly enhance the network reliability through the PoE port resetting the PD’s power source and reducing administrator management burden.

Scheduled Power Recycling
The WGSW-24040HP series allows each of the connected PoE IP cameras to reboot in a specific time each week. Therefore, it will reduce the chance of IP camera crash resulting from buffer overflow.

SMTP/SNMP Trap Event Alert
Though most NVR or camera management softwares offer SMTP email alert function, the WGSW-24040HP series further provides event alert function to help to diagnose the abnormal device owing to the network connection break, lost of PoE power or the rebooting response by PD Alice Check process.

PoE Schedule for Energy Saving
Under the trend of energy saving worldwide and contributing to environmental protection, the WGSW-24040HP series can effectively control the power supply besides its capability of giving high watts power. The “PoE schedule” function helps you to enable or disable PoE power feeding for each PoE port during specified time intervals and it is a powerful function to help SMBs and enterprises save power and money.

Cost-effective IPv6 Managed Gigabit Switch Solution for SMBs
Faced with the increasingly large number of IP cameras and wireless APs being installed and deployed in all kinds of applications, more and more network equipment start to support IPv6 protocol for next generation networking. To fulfill the IPv6 management demand, the WGSW-24040HP series works with the original IPv4 network structure, and also supports the new IPv6 network structure. With easy and friendly management interfaces and plenty of management functions included, the WGSW-24040HP series is the best choice for SMBs, and IP surveillance and wireless service providers to connect with IPv6 network.

Layer 3 IPv4 and IPv6 Software VLAN Routing for Secure and Flexible Management
To help customers stay on top of their businesses, the WGSW-24040HP series not only provides ultra high transmission performance and excellent layer 2 technologies, but also IPv4/IPv6 software VLAN routing feature which allows to cross over different VLANs and different IP addresses for the purpose of having a highly secured, flexible management and simpler networking application.

Efficient Management
For efficient management, the WGSW-24040HP managed switch series is equipped with console, web and SNMP management interfaces. With the built-in web-based management interface, the WGSW-24040HP series offers an easy-to-use, platform independent management and configuration facility. The WGSW-24040HP series supports SNMP and it can be managed via any standard SNMP v1 and v2 management software. For the text-based management mode, the WGSW-24040HP can be accessed via Telnet and the console port. Moreover, the WGSW-24040HP series offers remote secure management by supporting SSH, SSL and SNMPv3 connection whose packet content can be encrypted at each session.

Robust Layer 2 Features
The WGSW-24040HP series can be programmed for advanced switch management function, such as dynamic port link aggregation, Q-in-Q VLAN, private VLAN, Rapid Spanning Tree protocol, Layer 2 to Layer 4 QoS, bandwidth control and IGMP/MLD snooping. The WGSW-24040HP series provides 802.1Q tagged VLAN and the VLAN groups allowed will be maximally up to 255. The WGSW-24040HP not only allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining multiple ports, but also supports connection fail-over.

Powerful Security
The WGSW-24040HP series offers a comprehensive Layer 2 to Layer 4 access control list (ACL) for enforcing security to the edge. It can be used to restrict to network access by denying packets based on source and destination IP address, TCP/UDP port number or defined typical network applications. Its protection mechanism also comprises 802.1x Port-based and MAC-based user and device authentication. With the private VLAN function, communication between edge ports can be prevented to ensure user privacy. The WGSW-24040HP series also provides DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard and Dynamic ARP Inspection functions to prevent IP snooping from attack and discard ARP packets with invalid MAC address. The network administrator can now construct highly secured corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.

Flexible and Extendable Solution
The four mini-GBIC slots built in the WGSW-24040HP series support dual speed, and 100BASE-FX and 1000BASE-SX/LX SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) fiber-optic modules. Now the administrator can flexibly choose the suitable SFP transceiver according to not only the transmission distance, but also the transmission speed required. The distance can be extended from 550 meters to 2km (multi-mode fiber) and above 10/20/30/40/50/70/120 km (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for applications within the enterprise data centers and distributions.
