L3 Managed Switch 16-Port 100/1000X SFP, 8-Port Gigabit TP/SFP, 4-Port 10G SFP+ Stackable

Powerful Layer 3 routing solution for all long-range networks

PLANET SGS-6341-16S8C4XR is a Layer 3 stackable managed Gigabit switch that provides high-density performance, Layer 3 static routing, RIP (Routing Information Protocol) , and OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) with 10Gbps uplink and multiple SFP fiber interfaces delivered in a rugged and durable case. The administrator can flexibly choose the suitable SFP/SFP+ transceiver according to the transmission distance or required transmission speed to extend the 10G network efficiently. Moreover, with a 128Gbps switching fabric , the SGS-6341-16S8C4XR can handle extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking to high-capacity backbone or servers for ISP and enterprise VoIP, video streaming, and multicast applications.

High-performance Ethernet capacity at 10 Gbps

The four built-in SFP+ slots on the SGS-6341 series support dual - speed 10GBASE-SR/LR or 1000BASE-SX/LX . With 10Gbps uplink interfaces, the SGS-6341 series features a high-performance switch architecture that is capable of providing a non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed throughput of up to 128Gbps, greatly simplifying the tasks of upgrading the LAN to meet the growing bandwidth demands.

Redundant AC and DC power to ensure continuous operation

The SGS-6341-16S8C4XR is equipped with a 100~240V AC power supply unit and an additional 36-75V DC power supply unit for redundant power supply. A redundant power system is also provided to improve reliability with either the AC or DC power supply unit. The redundant power system is specifically designed to handle the demands of high-tech installations requiring the highest power integrity.

IP stacking management

The SGS-6341 series supports IP stacking, which helps network administrators easily configure up to 24 switches in the same series via a single IP address instead of connecting and configuring each unit individually. IP Stacking technology groups the PLANET SGS-6341 switch series together to enable centralized management via a single unit, regardless of the physical location or switch type, as long as they are connected to the same local network.

High-reliability hardware stacking

Two of the 10G SFP+ ports are used to connect multiple SGS-6341 series switches together to create a virtually logical installation. The SGS-6341 series offers enterprises, service providers, and telecoms flexible control over port density, uplinks, and switch stack performance. The SGS-6341 series can be connected as a ring for redundancy, ensuring data integrity is maintained even if a switch in the stack fails. It can even hot-swap switches without disrupting the network, greatly simplifying LAN upgrades to meet increasing bandwidth demands.

Layer 3 routing support

The SGS-6341 series allows administrators to conveniently increase network efficiency by manually configuring Layer 3 static routing and automatically configuring RIP or OSPF. RIP can employ hop count as a routing metric and prevent routing loops by limiting the number of hops allowed in a path from source to destination. OSPF is a dynamic interior routing protocol for an autonomous system based on link state. The protocol creates a link state database by exchanging link states between Layer 3 switches, and then uses the Shortest Path First algorithm to generate a route table based on that database.

Full IPv6 support

The SGS-6341 series provides enterprise-grade IPv6 management and security features, such as SSH , ACL , WRR , and RADIUS authentication . Therefore , it helps enterprises enter the IPv6 era with minimal investment. Moreover, there is no need to replace network infrastructure when building an IPv6 FTTx edge network.

Robust Layer 2 Features

The SGS-6341 series can be programmed for basic switch management functions such as port speed configuration, port aggregation, VLAN, Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), WRR, bandwidth control, and IGMP snooping. This switch provides 802.1Q tagged VLAN, Q-in-Q, voice VLAN, and GVRP. By supporting port aggregation, the SGS-6341 series enables high-speed trunking across multiple ports. It supports up to 128 trunking groups, with a maximum of 8 ports per group.

Excellent layer 2 to layer 4 traffic control

The SGS-6341 series is loaded with powerful traffic management and WRR features to enhance telecommunications services. WRR features include wire-speed Layer 4 traffic classifiers and bandwidth throttling, which are particularly useful for multi-tenant, multi-business unit, telco, or network service applications. It also enables businesses to make the most of limited network resources and ensures optimal VoIP and video conferencing streaming.

Powerful security

The SGS-6341 series supports comprehensive ACL policies. Traffic can be classified by source/destination IP addresses, source/destination MAC addresses, IP protocols, TCP/UDP, IP precedence, time ranges, and ToS. A variety of policies can also be implemented to forward traffic. The SGS-6341 series also provides IEEE 802.1x port-based access authentication, which can be implemented with RADIUS, to ensure port-level security and block illegal users.

Efficient and secure management

For efficient management, the SGS-6341 Managed Gigabit Switch series is equipped with a console, web, and SNMP management interfaces. With its built-in web-based management interface, the SGS-6341 series offers easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration. The SGS-6341 series supports the standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and can be managed via any standard management software.

To reduce product learning curve, the SGS-6341 series offers Cisco-like commands via Telnet or the console port, eliminating the need for customers to learn new commands for these switches. Additionally, the SGS-6341 series offers secure remote management by supporting SSH connections that encrypt packet content during each session.

Intelligent SFP diagnostic mechanism

The SGS-6341-16S8C4XR supports SFP-DDM ( Digital Diagnostic Monitor ) function which greatly helps network administrator to easily monitor real-time parameters of SFP and SFP+ transceivers, such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature, laser bias current and transceiver supply voltage.
