The PLANET XGS3-24242 is a robust Layer 3 stackable Gigabit switch offering exceptional performance and rich routing capabilities. With 24 SFP ports, 4 SFP+ uplinks, and support for static, RIP, OSPF, and BGP routing, the XGS3-24242 delivers up to 128Gbps non-blocking switching performance—ideal for ISP, carrier-grade, and enterprise aggregation deployments.

Designed for high-reliability networks, the switch supports hardware stacking, IP stacking (up to 24 units), dual redundant power inputs (AC/DC), and ERPS ring technology. It ensures rapid failover, seamless routing, and security features suitable for data-intensive applications like VoIP, IPTV, and surveillance.
