solution to most kinds of local area network congestion problems. 

Features 

The Switch were designed for easy installation and high performance 
in an environment where traffic on the network and the number of 
user increase continuously. 

 

The Switch with its rack size is specifically designed for middle to 
large workgroups. The Switch provides immediate access to a rapidly 
growing network through a wide range of user-reliable functions. 

The Switch is ideal for deployment with multiple high-speed servers 
for shared bandwidth 10Mbps or 100Mbps workgroups. With the 
highest bandwidth 200Mbps (100Mbps full-duplex mode), any port 
can provide workstations with a congestion-free data pipe for 
simultaneous access to the server. 

 

The Switch is expandable by cascading two or more switches together.   
As all ports support 200Mbps, the Switch can be cascaded from any 
port and to any number of switches. 

The Switch is a perfect choice for site planning to upgrade to Fast 
Ethernet in the future.  Ethernet workgroups can connect to the 
Switch now, and change adapters and hubs anytime later without 
needing to change the Switch or reconfigure the network. 

 

The Switch combine dynamic memory allocation with 
store-and-forward switching to ensure that the buffer is effectively 
allocated for each port, while controlling the data flow between the 
transmit and receive nodes to guarantee against all possible packet 
loss.
