1.0 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the LINDY 8 Port Gigabit Smart Switch with 2 shared mini GBIC ports.
This high-performance Layer 2 network switch is ideal for use in either the home or the office
All of its ports are capable of 10, 100 or 1000Mbps auto-negotiation, while the 10/100/1000Mbps
auto-sensing ability provides the easiest, most hassle-free way to migrate from a Fast Ethernet to a
Gigabit Ethernet network.
This switch delivers a dedicated 10/100/1000Mbps connection to every attached client with no
bandwidth congestion issues. It also supports an auto MDI/MDI-X function, which means that each
port can be used to connect to another switch or hub without the need for crossover cables!
Store-and-forward architecture is used by the switch to filter and forward data after each packet is
received and examined to be free of errors. All of the ports support full and half-duplex operation
which doubles the network bandwidth and allows the simultaneous transmission and reception of
frames without causing collisions.
The switch provides 9KB Jumbo frame support which can improve network performance by
allowing more data to be sent per transmitted frame.
