shows FastSwitch 24 devices at the Corporate Office providing up to 24 auto-sensing
10/100 copper ports for flexible desktop and workgroup connectivity. One gigabit per second
uplink provides fast ethernet connectivity to the supporting server. In addition, a second gigabit link
extends the ethernet switch density to 48 ports. Forwarding rates up to 9.6 million packets per
second, non-blocking architecture and resiliency features such as Fast Spanning Tree Protocol and
link aggregation are supported on all ports.
When the Innovx FastSwitch 24 is deployed with companion Innovx access products, an enterprise
network can be extended to cost-effectively reach branch offices. The Innovx FastRoute device
establishes a secure and reliable LAN extension between floors or between buildings, eliminating
expensive routers. The Innovx FastSwitch 9- or 18-Port devices provide scalable ethernet
connectivity to the LAN-attached equipment at remote sites.
