Switch Architecture
The switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This
permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low
latency on all ports. This switch also features full-duplex capability on all
ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection.
