ZyXEL GS-1524 is a 24-port L2 Gigabit switch with advanced Web-based management support, that has been specifically designed for SMB/Enterprise networks where extra bandwidth and advanced QoS or security features are required. To cope with the diverse requirements of SMB/Enterprise businesses, the ZyXEL GS-1524 Web-managed switch comes with 20 Gigabit copper ports plus 4 dual-personality (RJ-45/SFP) Gigabit ports to provide 48 Gbps of non-blocking connectivity for SB/SMB networks. With the flexible multi-function design, GS-1524 fits any network with very little effort.

While many legacy Web-based Smart switches improve manageability, configuration complexity is still an issue; for most SMB/Enterprise, inadequate IT expertise and complicated configuration are the major concerns to overcome. Powered by the next-generation hardware platform with a content-aware engine, ZyXEL GS-1524 delivers stress-free networking. In addition, the streamlined and intuitive Web-GUI makes GS-1524 even easier to configure to slash the efforts needed.

Security has become increasingly important in SMB/Enterprise networks. Equipped with Auto DoS Attack Prevention, the GS-1524 is capable of protection against ubiquitous DoS attacks. A few mouse clicks are all it takes to initiate the protection, complete the once-complicated ACL setting and reduce operating efforts dramatically. The GS-1524 supports 802.1Q VLAN for traffic isolation, as well as Static MAC forwarding and dynamic ARP to establish a strictly protected network.
