The ES-5240G+ v3 is a cost-effective web-smart Ethernet switch which meets IEEE 802.3/u/x/z Gigabit Ethernet specifications. It’s equipped with 24 gigabit ports, four SFP slots and a web-browser based management interface to monitor, configure and control the activity of each port. The switch is suitable for SMB applications and additionally features QoS (Quality of Service), port mirroring, VLANs, LAN security, multicast video streaming protocol and SNMP v1.

QoS with Four Priority Queues
The QoS (Quality Of Service) feature provides four internal queues to support four different classifications of traffic and operates at full wire speed. High priority packet streams experience less delays inside the switch, which supports lower latency for delay-sensitive traffic. The switch classifies packets as one of four priorities according to 802.1p priority tags, DiffServ and/or IP TOS. The actual scheduling at each egress port can be based upon a strict priority, weighted round robin or a mix of both.

Multicast VLAN Support
Multicast VLAN is designed for applications such as Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) which use multicast traffic across an IP Ethernet network. The feature allows one single multicast VLAN to be shared among different subscriber VLANs on the network, improving bandwidth utilization by reducing multicast traffic in the subscriber VLANs and simplifying multicast group management.

802.1x Access Control for Improved Network Security
Multicast VLAN is designed for applications such as Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) which use multicast traffic across an IP Ethernet network. The feature allows one single multicast VLAN to be shared among different subscriber VLANs on the network, improving bandwidth utilization by reducing multicast traffic in the subscriber VLANs and simplifying multicast group management.
