Incorporating data, video and voice communications into a single IP network provides more effective communications, centralized IT management, and lower overall deployment cost for the entire organization. The ZyXEL XGS2210/GS2210 Series are fully featured Layer 2 Gigabit access switches designed to meet these converged data, video and voice networking needs. The Series comes in 8-, 24-, 28-, 48- and 52-port models with a combination of PoE and non-PoE, as well as Gigabit (GS2210 Series) and 10 Gigabit (XGS2210 Series) uplink options. The PoE models comply with the IEEE 802.3af PoE and 802.3at PoE Plus standards and provide a high PoE power budget. With rich traffic shaping, network isolation, and security features, the XGS2210/GS2210 Series is the perfect L2 access switch solution for converged data, video and voice networking. Designed for access layer converged data, video and voice applications, the ZyXEL XGS2210/GS2210 Series has a rich Layer 2 feature set that can shape the traffic for diverse VoIP, video conference, IPTV and IP surveillance deployments. Supporting L2 multicast and IGMP snooping, the XGS2210/GS2210 Series can support large IPTV deployments, while using bandwidth efficiently by directing multicast traffic to the subscribers only. The Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) function ensures better network security by allowing a single multicast VLAN to be shared in the network while subscribers remain in separate VLANs. In terms of voice, the XGS2210/GS2210 switch uses OUI to detect compliant IP phones, and then assigns the delay-sensitive VoIP traffic to a dedicated voice VLAN with appropriate QoS prioritization. These advanced traffic control features of the XGS2210/GS2210 Series provide hotels, businesses and educational institutions greater agility and more effective traffic management for the converged applications of today.
