24-Port 10/100M Layer 2 Managed Switch (Intelligent) + 2-Port Gigabit Module Slot
The Hawking HGMS224 24-Port 10/100 Layer 2 Managed Switch (Intelligent) + 2-Port Gigabit Module Slot is a high performance, web-managed SNMP (simple network management protocol) Layer 2 switch that provides users with (24) 10/100Mbps Ethernet ports and the option of two additional 1000Mbps gigabit ports. The switch features SNMP management and remote control capabilities such as Web Cluster. The gigabit module (available in copper media or fiber media) supports the 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX or 1000BASE-T standards, thus allowing you to increase your network response times to gigabit speeds, as well as improve flexibility.
All ports are capable of non-blocking and maximum wire speed performance. The HGMS224 supports auto-negotiation and auto-MDIX technology on all 24 switched RJ-45 ports and both gigabit copper ports in both half and full duplex modes.
The switch provides a convenient way to control Layer 2 management via a web browser. The user-friendly drop-down menu allows you to easily learn, control and monitor the switch. It supports not only the traditional SNMP function, but also RMON (remote monitoring) 1,2,3,9 groups for advanced network analysis. Web Cluster can also be used to manage the switch easily and efficiently.
The HGMS224 supports both port-based and tag-based VLANs. To increase bandwidth, the switch also supports a port-trunking feature that allows the user to form up to seven groups of up to four ports each. In addition, these trunked ports utilize the fail-over function to provide back up if one or more ports malfunction.
