2.3 Switching
Technology
Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of Ethernet technology is the
development of switching technology. A switch bridge Ethernet packets at the
MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting among connected
Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN segments.
Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network capacity
available to users on a local area network. A switch increases capacity and
decreases network loading by dividing a local area network into different
segments, which don’t compete with each other for network transmission
capacity.

The Industrial Switch was designed for easy installation in an industrial
environment where vibration, shock, heat, and RF interference may be
commonplace.
The Industrial Switch, with its small, compact size, was specifically designed for
easy DIN rail mounting and can be installed where space is limited.
The Industrial Switch is ideal for deployment with multiple high-speed servers for
shared bandwidth 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps workgroups. With the highest bandwidth
200 Mbps (100 Mbps full duplex mode), any port can provide workstations with a
congestion-free data pipe for simultaneous access to the server.
The Industrial Switch is expandable by cascading two or more switches together
in a ‘daisy-chain’ fashion. As all ports support 200 Mbps, the Industrial Switch
can be cascaded from any port and to any number of switches.
The Industrial Switch combines 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.
