Information Technology

Easy web management

This switch comes with a user-friendly web-based set-up interface that walks you through setup, configuration and management-including configuration backups and firmware upgrades-quickly and easily. With a few simple clicks, your network will be humming along, so you can get back to business.

IGMP Snooping for optimized traffic delivery

Based on the IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) query and report messages, the switch forwards traffic only to the ports that request the multicast traffic rather than to all ports. It helps to optimize multicast performance and is especially useful for bandwidth-intensive IP multicast applications such as online media streaming and gaming.

VLAN segregation for enhanced network security

VLAN (virtual local area network) can be used to separate traffic within a business such as isolating resources between network administrators and general users or between employees and public guest users.

Enhanced port-based QoS for better traffic control

QoS (Quality of service) is the ability to provide different priority to different applications, users, or video/voice/data flows, or to guarantee a certain level of performance to a data flow.

Link Aggregation increase throughput beyond what a single connection could sustain

GS1200-5/8 combines 2 physical ports together to make a single high-bandwidth data path, for faster file transfers and to enhance connection reliability.

Advanced energy-savings at work

This switch's built-in IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) function automatically detects network traffic and adjusts power consumption dynamically to reduce power usage during times of low traffic.

Fanless, noiseless design

Extend your network control and visibility without disrupting your quiet business environment. This business switch features a fanless design that ensures noiseless operation and greater reliability over time with fewer parts to fail.

More comprehensive smart features included

Featuring Gigabit performance that's 10 times faster than Fast Ethernet. Deliver up to 2,000 Mbps of dedicated, non-blocking bandwidth per port and more advanced features like port mirroring, Jumbo Frame, broadcast storm control, loop detection/prevention. It's a great choice for SMBs who want to enjoy high-speed business network applications!

Smart features

The ZyXEL GS1200 series Web Managed PoE Gigabit Switch provides simple control for better manageability. Unlike other advanced but complex managed switches, the ZyXEL GS1200 series is suitable for most users and provides an affordable solution with fundamental features including PoE, VLAN, QoS, IGMP snooping v1/v2 and v3 compatibility.

PoE support

The ZyXEL GS1200-5HP and GS1200-8HP deliver PoE capabilities of IEEE 802.3at (30 watts/per port with total PoE power budget 60 watts) to supply power to PoE-capable network devices such as wireless APs, IP cameras and IP phones. Web GUI management enables you to monitor power status of each port and/or to reboot the network devices.

Easy Configuration

The ZyXEL GS1200 series does not require any additional software. It is more visualized with an easy, friendly and intuitive Web GUI that helps configuration tasks to be completed in just simple clicks. It is much easier for small office users.

Energy Saving For IEEE 802.3az

The ZyXEL GS1200 series built-in IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) function automatically detects network traffics and adjusts power consumptions dynamically to reduce power consumption during the low link utilization periods.
