24 Gigabit Fiber Copper PoE
and Stacking Switch Series
Overview
The GE Security GE-DSG / GE-DSSG series is a Layer 2+
managed gigabit switch designed to handle extremely large
amounts of data. These units function in a secure topology,
linking to an enterprise backbone or high-capacity network
server. The powerful features of QoS and network security
make this series an effective solution for data traffic control
for ISPs and enterprises, including VoIP, video streaming
and multicast applications. In addition, this switch is ideal
for the core layer of campus, enterprise networks and the
aggregation layer of IP metropolitan networks. Multicasting
IGMP Snooping and Query assure effective bandwidth
utilization of larger video files.
Designed for various networking applications, the GE-
DSG / GE-DSSG are all multiple ports with SFP fiber optical
connective ability and robust Layer 2 features. This series
provides 24 gigabit Ethernet ports with multiple shared gigabit
SFP slots. Boasting high-performance architecture these
switches are capable of providing non-blocking switch fabric
and wire-speed throughput as high as 68Gbps, these units
simplify LAN upgrades that can increase bandwidth demands.
Switcher stacking feature with the ability to connect up to 16
switches with control of 38 ports over a 5 Gbps backbone with
intelligent hot swap for both master and node switches.

Gigabit Power over Ethernet
The GE Security GE-DSSG-244-PoE series Power-over-Ethernet
(PoE) optimizes the installation and power management of
network devices such as 802.11n wireless access points
(AP) with gigabit LAN port, VoIP phones and security video
cameras. PoE capabilities also reduce installation costs for
many new network productivity devices, and free the wireless
AP deployment from restrictions due to power outlet locations.
Power and data switching are integrated into one unit and
delivered over a single cable, eliminating costs for additional
AC wiring and reducing installation time.
Fiber-Optical Long-Reach Networking
For large-scale network deployment applications, the GE-
DSSG-244 provides 24 100/1000 dual-speed SFP slots, eight
shared gigabit TP ports, and two dedicated high-speed
HDMI-like interfaces for stacking with the series of switches.
By applying the GE-DSSG series switch, up to 16 units and
384 fiber-optical ports can be managed by a stacking
group. Through additional ports, functionality can be added
as needed. The two built-in stacking ports provide 5Gbps
bandwidth and up to 20Gbps bi-directional speed. These units
can handle extremely large amounts of data and video in a
secure topology linking for backbone or high-capacity network
server. The stacking technology also enables the chassis-
based switches to be integrated into GE-DSSG series Managed
Switch without the expensive up-front cost.
