PLANET GSW-1601 network switch Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet

Cost-effective Gigabit Solution for Enterprise Backbone and Data Center Networking PLANET GSW-1601 Gigabit Ethernet Switch provides 16 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 16 Gigabit ports that support 9K jumbo frame feature. Therefore. the GSW-1601 can handle extremely large amounts of data transmission in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high-power servers.Brand-new Hardware DIP Switch for Functional Operation Modes SelectionThe new hardware version of the GSW-1601 offers “Standard”. “Flow Control Off”. “VLAN” and “Extend” modes. DIP Switch ModeStandard (default) -- This mode makes the Gigabit Ethernet Switch operate as a general switch and all ports operate at 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiation.Flow Control Off -- This mode disables the Gigabit Ethernet Switch flow control function.VLAN -- This mode makes the GSW-1601 operate as a VLAN isolation switch and 1. Port 1 to port 14 will isolate respectively. 2. Port 1 to port 14 can only communicate with port 15 and port 16 (uplink port).Extend -- This mode makes the GSW-1601 operate as a distance extension switch and port 1 to port 8 can only transmit distance of 200m at speed of 10Mbps. The GSW-1601 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-1601 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-1601 provides an additional solution for distance extension. thus saving the cost of Ethernet cable installation. Its VLAN isolation function is
