1.2 Product Description
10Gbps Fiber Ports and Multiple Dual Speed Fiber Ports Deliver High-speed Networking
PLANET MGSW-28240F L3 24-Port 100/1000BASE-X SFP + 4-Port 10G SFP+ Metro Ethernet Switch is specially designed for
service providers and enterprises to deliver high-speed networking over longer distances. Its SFP ports can be connected to
various fiber and Ethernet cables to extend switching functionality throughout the network. The MGSW-28240F is capable of
providing non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed throughput as high as 128Gbps in the temperature range from -10 to 60
degrees C without any packet loss and cyclic redundancy check (CRC) error. It greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the
enterprise LAN for catering to increasing bandwidth demands.
Layer 3 Routing Support
The MGSW-28240F enables the administrator to conveniently boost network efficiency by configuring Layer 3 IPv4/IPv6 VLAN
static routing manually, and the IPv4 OSPFv2 (Open Shortest Path First) settings automatically. The OSPF is an interior
dynamic routing protocol for autonomous system based on link state. The protocol creates a database for link state by
exchanging link states among Layer 3 switches, and then uses the Shortest Path First algorithm to generate a route table based
on that database.
