Introduction
1-3
•
Non-blocking cross-bar switching matrix allows concurrent operation of up to seven Ethernet
segments on the Model SW507 switch in full-duplex mode.
•
Backpressure to alleviate congestion. Reduces network congestion by slowing down incoming
traffic from other segments, when appropriate, by generating collision signals to those segments.
•
Microprocessor-based design to monitor network utilization, collisions, and link status.
•
A comprehensive LED indicator panel for monitoring overall switching condition and individual
port status.
For further functional descriptions of the switch, refer to Chapter 5, “Configuration Examples.”
