The GS-4210-24T2S features 24 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports and 2 additional 100/1000BASE-X SFP interfaces with internal power system. It offers an affordable, secure and reliable rack-mountable Gigabit network switch solution for SMBs deploying networks or requiring enhanced data security and network traffic management.

The GS-4210-24T2S supports SSHv2 and TLS protocols to provide strong protection against advanced threats. It includes a range of cybersecurity features such as DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard, Dynamic ARP Inspection Protection, 802.1x port-based network access control , RADIUS and TACACS+ user account management , SNMPv3 authentication and so on to complete it as an all-security solution.

The GS-4210-24T2S supports redundant ring technology and has a powerful and fast automatic recovery capability to prevent outages and external intrusions. It incorporates advanced ITU-T G.8032 ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching) , Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1s MSTP) technology into the customer's network to improve system reliability and uptime in various environments.

The GS-4210-24T2S can be programmed for advanced switch management features such as dynamic port link aggregation, 802.1Q VLAN and VLAN Q-in-Q, MSTP (Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol) , loop and BPDU guard , IGMP snooping and MLD snooping . Through link aggregation, the GS-4210-24T2S allows combining high-speed trunk operation with multiple ports as a 16 Gbps fat pipe and also supports failover. In addition, Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is the Layer 2 protocol included to help discover basic information about neighboring devices in the local transmission domain.

The GS-4210-24T2S features robust QoS capabilities and powerful traffic management to enhance the services of enterprise-grade data, voice and video solutions. Functionality includes broadcast/multicast/unicast storm control , per-port bandwidth control , 802.1p/CoS/IP DSCP QoS prioritization and remarking. It provides the best performance in VoIP transmission and video streaming and enables enterprises to take full advantage of limited network resources.

PLANET GS-4210-24T2S offers a comprehensive access control list (ACL) from IPv4/IPv6 Layer 2 to Layer 4 to strengthen 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 typical network applications defined. Its protection mechanism also includes 802.1X port-based authentication , which can be implemented with RADIUS to provide port-level security and block illegal users. With the protected port function , communication between edge ports can be prevented to ensure user privacy. In addition, port security. The feature allows you to limit the number of network devices on a given port. Network administrators can now build highly secure enterprise networks with much less time and effort than before.

The two mini-GBIC slots built into the GS-4210-24T2S are compatible with the 100BASE-FX/1000BASE-SX/LX SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) fiber transceiver for uplink to the backbone switch and long distance monitoring center. The distance can be extended from 550 meters to 2 kilometers (multi-mode fiber) and to 10/20/40/60/80/120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are suitable for applications within data centers and enterprise deployments.

Adopting the latest chip process and green technology, the GS-4210-24T2S successfully reduces substantial power consumption with the fanless and quiet design that is collocated with the effective cooling device. Therefore, the GS-4210-24T2S can operate stably and quietly in any environment without compromising performance.

For efficient management, the GS-4210-24T2S is equipped with command-line, Web and SNMP management interfaces:

• With the integrated Web-based management interface , the GS-4210-24T2S offers an easy-to-use and platform-independent management and configuration function
• For text-based management , it can be accessed via Telnet and console port
• Supporting the standard SNMP protocol, the switch can be managed via any SNMP-based management software
• In addition, the GS-4210-24T2S offers secure remote management by supporting SSHv2 , TLSv1.2 and SNMPv3 connections that encrypt packet contents with each session
