For your GHz computer with multi-GB of storage, Asanté offers a
complete family of Gigabit Ethernet switches. The FriendlyNET GX5
Series is the simplest, easiest way to move massive amounts of
information between computers and peripherals on your local area
network. With 8 popular configurations to choose from, Asanté has
the exactly the right Gig switch for your needs.
Every GX5 Series switch provides exceptional value for simple,
unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet switches that can run at the highest
throughput (full wire-speed). The strong metal chassis is

providing many years of reliable service.

advanced features, just open a web browser to enable trunking,

“This switch [FriendlyNET GX5-1300] is clearly designed to be a
‘drop in and
forget it’
solution for infrastructures that do not require flow or access control.
There is nothing to configure once you rackmount the unit.”
