Highlights

Performance and cost optimization on 52 ports

The R&S®LANCOM GS-3252P is equipped with 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 4 SFP+ ports. With a data throughput of 176 Gbps on the backplane, it offers full performance even at high workloads. The switch thus forms the basis for modern network infrastructures with a large number of end devices with moderate data throughput, such as printers or IP telephones, which need to be integrated.

Central power supply without additional electrical installation

As a high-performance PoE switch, the R&S®LANCOM GS-3252P supplies connected PoE end devices without the need for additional power supplies or power cabling. It supports the Power over Ethernet standards IEEE 802.3af (PoE) and IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) on 36 Ports. With a total PoE power of 370 watts, it is thus ideal for efficient power supply of PoE end devices with moderate power requirements.

The R&S®LANCOM GS-3252P suports the basic layer-3 function of static routing, shifting certain routing tasks from the router to the switch. The predefinition of network routes through one or more network segments enables faster data exchange, especially in the case of high internal data traffic, and reduces the load on the router. Freed-up router capacity is then additionally available for handling external data traffic. This increases the efficiency of the entire network.

The R&S®LANCOM Management Cloud opens the way to state-of-the-art switch management: Cloud-managed LAN. The R&S®LMC orchestrates the port profiles of all switches and automatically assigns the necessary network configuration, such as VLANs. In this way, all switch configurations are coordinated across sites, taking into account the network architecture, and rolled out or updated simultaneously at the click of a mouse.

DHCP server functionality

As a DHCP server, the switch is able to independently and automatically assign IP addresses to clients. The R&S®LANCOM GS-3252P supports this basic layer-3 function and thus takes over the IP management of the connected network.

Configurable access control

The R&S®LANCOM GS-3252P ensures that no unauthorized clients gain access to the network. This is made possible by secure access control on all ports according to IEEE 802.1X (port-based, single-, multi-, and MAC-based).

Secure remote management

Thanks to secure communication protocols such as SSH, SSL, and SNMPv3, the R&S®LANCOM GS-3252P enables professional remote management of the network. In addition, the switch supports the TACACS+ protocol for…

Thanks to secure communication protocols such as SSH, SSL, and SNMPv3, the R&S®LANCOM GS-3252P enables professional remote management of the network. In addition, the switch supports the TACACS+ protocol for authentication, authorization, and accounting. An optimal solution that promises maximum security, especially for the management and monitoring of multi-site networks.

IPv6 and IPv4 support

Thanks to its dual-stack implementation, the R&S®LANCOM GS-3252P can be used in IPv4-only, IPv6-only, or mixed networks. Numerous applications such as SSL, SSH, Telnet, or TFTP can also be run over IPv6 networks. IPv6…
