VOLKTEK NSH-580 MANAGED 24-PORT 10/100 + 4 G COMBO L3 SWITCH
2 Hardware
Description
The NSH-580 is a high-performance managed SNMP Layer 3 switch that provides users
with 24 x 10/100Mbps Ethernet and 4 Gigabit Combo ports. The Web/SNMP
management provides remote control capability that gives user-friendly and
flexible
network management and monitoring options.
For increased bandwidth applications, the NSH-580 can accommodate trunk groups with
8 ports in each trunk.
Moreover, these trunk ports ship with fair
-
over function to provide redundant back-up if
one or more of the ports are malfunctioning. It also supports both Port-based VLAN and
Tag-based VLAN, thereby simplifying network traffic segmentation, broadcast domain
extension and other associated benefits of constructing VLANs. This abundance of
features translates into increased efficiency and performance in network administration.
The Switch was especially developed with a host of features that make it particularly
suited for SOHO applications which demand the utmost in reliability. The device comes
with 24 x 10/100Base-TX copper ports and 4 SFP fiber gigabit ports that are each
interchangeable with 4 additional Gigabit Ethernet ports. The package provides
10/100Base-TX copper and Gigabit fiber conversion. Thus, the Gigabit fiber and copper
ports provide flexible, high-bandwidth and fast uplinks, while the 10/100TX copper ports
offer flexibility in network configurations.
Being SNMP-ready, the Switch enables network managers to remotely monitor the
entire network status quickly and easily via RJ-45 (in-band), or console port (out-of-band)
connection. This managed Switch can extend the enterprise LAN configuration range up
to 110km while simultaneously minimizing the troubleshooting time. The Switch is
designed for 'plug-n-play' to enable hassle-free integration in today's managed mixed
cabling network configurations.
Featuring auto MDI/MDI-X detection for direct connections to a workstation, switch or
hub, network managers no longer need to worry about the cable configuration
(crossover or straight through) when establishing connections between RJ-45 ports.
The Switch has auto-negotiation capabilities that allow it to support connection with
leading NWay switches. In full-duplex mode, this unit can sustain distances of up to
550m (with multi-mode fiber) and 110km (with long-haul single-mode fiber) between a
LAN switch and another switch or data/file server.
