2.1 Introduction
This high-performance switch provides eight 10-/100-Mbps ports. Port 8 is a
power device (PD) port that receives power from other power source equipment
(PSE) ports via CAT5 cables.
The switch is easy to install in an environment where network traffic and the
number of users increases continually, and you need to keep adding workgroups.
The compact device was designed specifically for small to medium workgroups.
Install it where space is limited.
