As below.

Explanation:

y = (1/2) csc (2x)

Standard form of cosecant function is y = A csc(Bx - C) + D

A = 1/2, B = 2, C = D = 0

Amplitude = |A| = "NONE for cosecant function"

"Period " = (2pi) / |B| = (2pi) / 2 = pi

"Phase Shift " = -C / B = 0

"Vertical Shift " = D = 0

graph{(1/2) csc(2x) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
