2. Installation
This section describes the functionalities of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch’s
components and guides how to install it on the desktop. Basic knowledge of
networking is assumed. Please read this chapter completely before continuing.
2.1 Product Description
The PLANET GSD-805 and GSD-805F are Gigabit Ethernet Switch with non-blocking
wire-speed performance and new metal shape for easily desktop deployment in
compact housing or SOHO application.
With 16Gbps internal switching fabric and 9K Jumbo frame, the Gigabit Ethernet
Switch can handle extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking
to a backbone or high capacity servers. The high data throughput of the device
makes it ideal for most Gigabit environments, especially network upgrades to a
Gigabit environment.
All RJ-45 copper interfaces support 10/100/1000Mbps Auto-Negotiation for optimal
speed detection through RJ-45 Category 5, 5e or 6 cables. Support standard of
Auto-MDI/MDI-X feature which can detect the type of connection to any Ethernet
device without requiring special straight or crossover cables.
The Flow Control function allows Gigabit Ethernet Switch supported routers and
Servers to directly connect to this device for fast, reliable data transfer.
2.1.1 Product Overview
The PLANET Gigabit Ethernet Switch can also automatically identify and determine
the correct transmission speed of Half / Full Duplex mode. The Gigabit Ethernet
Switch also supports Store-and-Forward forwarding scheme to ensure low latency
and high data integrity, eliminates unnecessary trafc and relieves congestion on
critical network paths. With an intelligent address recognition algorithm, the Gigabit
Ethernet Switch could recognize up to 8K different MAC address and enables
ltering and forwarding at full wire speed.

Notice
1. The device is a power-required device, it means, it will not work
till it is powered. If your networks should active all the time,
please consider using UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) for your
device. It will prevent you from network data loss or network
downtime.
2. In some area, installing a surge suppression device may also
help to protect your Switch from being damaged by unregulated
surge or current to the Switch or the power adapter.
