Flow Control
The
DGE-528T
implements IEEE 802.3x compliant flow control for full-duplex, which provides traffic
management functions for full-duplex operation. Flow control allows for enhanced full-duplex operation
with switches. When operating at full-duplex (requiring a direct connection to a switch) and the switch’s
data buffer is about to overflow, a Pause frame will be transmitted to the
DGE-528T
. The ensuing
idle time keeps the buffer from overflowing and prevents data from being lost. This enhancement can
improve network throughput, avoid collisions and prevent lost data, helping the network achieve optimal
performance.
