High Power and Full-speed Data Delivered over 4-pair UTP Cabling
The IGS-4215-8UP4X meets the standards of IEEE 802.bt PoE++ technology and has a total power capacity of 1440 watts.
This allows it to supply up to 95 watts of power to each remote PoE-compliant powered device (PD) using all four pairs of
standard Cat5e/6 Ethernet cabling, ensuring high power and full-speed data delivery. Compared to the conventional 802.3at
PoE+, it offers triple power capacity, making it the perfect solution for higher power consuming PDs, including:
PoE PTZ speed dome cameras
Network devices
Thin clients
AIO (all-in-one) touch PCs, point of sale (POS) and information kiosks
Remote digital signage displays
PoE lightings
Intelligent Powered Device Alive Check
The IGS-4215-8UP4X can be configured to monitor connected PD (powered device) status in real time via ping action. Once
the PD stops working and responding, the IGS-4215-8UP4X will resume the PoE port power and bring the PD back to work. It
will greatly enhance the network reliability through the PoE port resetting the PD’s power source and reducing the
administrator’s management burden.

PoE Schedule for Energy Savings
Under the global trend of energy saving and contributing to environmental protection, the IGS-4215-8UP4X can effectively
control the power supply besides its capability of giving high watts power. The “PoE schedule” function helps you enable or
disable PoE power feeding for each PoE port during specified time intervals, which is a powerful function to help SMBs or
enterprises save power and budget. It also increases security by powering off PDs that should not be in use during
non-business hours.
802.3bt PoE++ Power and Ethernet Data Transmission Distance Extension
In "Extended" operation mode, the IGS-4215-8UP4X functions on a per-port basis with a 10Mbps duplex operation.
Remarkably, it can deliver a 40-watt PoE power output over a distance of up to 250 meters, surpassing the standard 100m limit
on Ethernet UTP cables. Thus, PoE power can be supplied over a long distance without the need of additional Ethernet cabling
and electrical outlets, resulting in cost savings.

802.1Q VLAN, Q-in-Q VLAN, Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), loop and BPDU guard, IGMP snooping, and MLD
snooping. With dynamic port link aggregation, the switch enables the creation of a high-speed trunk. For instance, it can
combine four 10G ports, creating a resilient 40Gbps connection with fail-over support. Additionally, the inclusion of Link Layer
Discovery Protocol (LLDP) enhances Layer 2 functionality by providing essential information about neighboring devices within
the local broadcast domain.
Efficient Traffic Control
The IGS-4215 Series is loaded with robust QoS features and powerful traffic management to enhance services to
business-class data, voice, and video solutions. The functionality includes broadcast/multicast/unicast storm control, per
port bandwidth control, 802.1p/CoS/IP DSCP QoS priority and remarking. It guarantees the best performance in VoIP and
video stream transmission, and empowers the enterprises to take full advantage of the limited network resources.

Enhancing Network Security
PLANET IGS-4215 Series offers comprehensive IPv4/IPv6 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 ports or defined typical network applications. Its protection mechanism also comprises 802.1X port-based user and
device authentication, which can be deployed with RADIUS to ensure the port level security and block illegal users. With the
protected port function, communication between edge ports can be prevented to guarantee user privacy. Furthermore, Port
security function allows to limit the number of network devices on a given port. The network administrators can now construct
highly-secure corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.
Ensuring Network Integrity
The I IGS-4215 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 administrators can now construct
highly-secure corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.
User-friendly and Secure Management
For efficient management, the IGS-4215 Series is equipped with Command line, Web and SNMP management interfaces.
