PLANET Layer 3 12-Port 10GBASE-X SFP+ + 4-Port 10GBASE-T Managed Ethernet Switch

Perfect Managed All-port 10Gbps Switch with L3/L2 Switching and Security

PLANET XGS-6320-12X4TR is a fully-managed all-port 10Gbps Ethernet switch designed for the demand of high bandwidth for advanced network equipment, such as Wi-Fi 6/6E wireless AP, NAS, workstation and those with 10Gbps fiber or copper interfaces. It features 4 10GBASE-T copper ports and 12 10GBASE-X SFP+ fiber ports that are flexibly designed to extend the connection distance. 

With such a favorable data link capability, hardware-based Layer 3 routing performance, Layer 2 and Layer 4 switching engine and user-friendly yet advanced IPv6/IPv4 management interfaces, it helps to accelerate the deployment of the next-generation high-bandwidth required network for metro, smart cites and enterprises. 

10GBASE-T and 10GBASE-X SFP Dual Media Interfaces for Diversified Bandwidth Applications

PLANET XGS-6320 series has the capability to reach a high speed of 10Gbps over copper or fiber-optic cabling which helps to accelerate the performance of large data transmission. The built-in 10GBASE-T copper interfaces support 5-speed (10G/5G/2.5G/1G/100) auto-negotiation, and 10Gbps data transmission with the existing Cat6A/Cat7 UTP cabling, meaning the speed can be increased without costs. It can definitely give you the speed you demand and its Plug and Play makes installation easy.

The fiber-optic 10GBASE-X SFP+ interfaces support 4 speeds, 10GBASE-SR/LR, 2500BASE-X, 1000BASE-SX/LX and 100BASE-FX, meaning the administrator now can flexibly choose the suitable SFP/SFP+ transceiver according to the transmission distance or the transmission speed required to extend the network efficiently. 

Redundant Ring, Fast Recovery for Critical Network Applications

The XGS-6320 series supports redundant ring technology and features strong, rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruptions and external intrusions. It incorporates advanced ITU-T G.8032 ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching) technology and Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1w RSTP) into customer’s network to enhance system reliability and uptime in harsh environments. In a certain simple Ring network, the recovery time could be less than 10ms to quickly bring the network back to normal operation.

 Cybersecurity Network Solution to Minimize Security Risks

The cybersecurity feature included to protect the switch management in a mission-critical network virtually needs no effort and cost to install. Both SSHv2 and TLSv1.2 protocols are utilized to provide strong protection against advanced threats. The network administrator can now construct highly-secure corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.

AC and DC Redundant Power to Ensure Continuous Operation

The XGS-6320 series is equipped with one 100~240V AC power supply unit and one additional 36-60V DC power supply unit for redundant power supply. A redundant power system is also provided to enhance the reliability with either AC or DC power supply unit. The redundant power system is specifically designed to handle the demands of high-tech facilities requiring the highest power integrity. 

Solution for IPv6 Networking

With the support for IPv6/IPv4 protocol, and easy and user-friendly management interfaces, the XGS-6320 series is the best choice for IP surveillance, VoIP and wireless service providers to connect with the IPv6 network. It also helps SMBs to step in the IPv6 era with the lowest investment and without having to replace the network facilities even though ISPs establish the IPv6 edge network.

  Layer 3 Routing Support

The XGS-6320 series enables the administrator to conveniently boost network efficiency by configuring Layer 3 IPv4/IPv6 VLAN static routing manually, the RIP (Routing Information Protocol) or OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) settings automatically. 

The RIP can employ the hop count as a routing metric and prevent routing loops by implementing a limit on the number of hops allowed in a path from the source to a destination. 

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 Layer3 switches, and then uses the Shortest Path First algorithm to generate a route table based on that database.

 Robust Layer2 Features

The XGS-6320 series can be programmed for advanced switch management function, such as dynamic port link aggregation, Q-in-Q VLAN, Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), Layer2/4 QoS, bandwidth control and IGMP/MLD snooping. It allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining multiple ports. Supporting 8 trunk groups, it enables a maximum of up to 16 ports per trunk and supports connection fail-over as well.

 Powerful Network Security

The XGS-6320 series offers comprehensive Layer 2 to Layer 4 access control list (ACL) for enforcing security to the edge. It can be used to restrict 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. 

Advanced IP Network Protection

The XGS-6320 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 build highly-secure corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.

Efficient Management

For efficient management, the XGS-6320 series is equipped with console, Web and SNMP management interfaces.

• With the built-in Web-based management interface, it offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration facility. 
• For text-based management, it can be accessed via Telnet and the console port. 
• For standard-based monitor and management software, it offers SNMPv3 connection which encrypts the packet content at each session for secure remote management.

 Remote Management Solution

PLANET's Universal Network Management System (UNI-NMS) and CloudViewer app support IT staff by remotely managing all network devices and monitoring PDs' operational statuses. Thus, they're designed for both the enterprises and industries where deployments of PDs can be as remote as possible, without having to go to the actual location once a bug or faulty condition is found. With the UNI-NMS or CloudViewer app, all kinds of businesses can now be speedily and efficiently managed from one platform. 

Intelligent SFP Diagnosis Mechanism

The XGS-6320 series supports SFP-DDM (Digital Diagnostic Monitor) function that greatly helps network administrator to easily monitor real-time parameters of the SFP and SFP+ transceivers, such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature, laser bias current, and transceiver supply voltage.

 SMTP/SNMP Trap Event Alert

Though most NVR or camera management software offers SMTP email alert function, the XGS-6320 series further provides event alert function to help to diagnose the abnormal device owing to whether or not there is a break of the network connection.
