PLANET GSW-2401 Gigabit Ethernet Switch provides 24 RJ45 10/100/1000Mbps ports for high-speed network connectivity. It can automatically identify and determine the correct transmission speed and half/full duplex mode of the attached devices with its 24 Gigabit ports that support 9K jumbo frame feature. Therefore, the GSW-2401 can handle extremely large amounts of data transmission in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high-power servers.

DIP Switch for Operation Mode Selection

The new GSW-2401 offers “Standard”, “Flow Control Off”, “VLAN” or “Extend” mode. The GSW-2401 operates as a normal Gigabit Ethernet Switch in the "Standard" operation mode.

The "VLAN" operation mode features port-based VLAN function that can help to prevent the connected clients’ multicast or broadcast storm from influencing each other.

In the "Extend" operation mode, the GSW-2401 operates on a per-port basis at 10Mbps duplex operation but can transmit data over a distance of up to 200 meters overcoming the 100m limit on Ethernet UTP cable. With this brand-new feature, the GSW-2401 provides an additional solution for distance extension, thus saving the cost of Ethernet cable installation. Its VLAN isolation function isolates each port so as to prevent broadcast storm and defend DHCP spoofing in the “Extend” operation mode.
