The Magnum P80 & P80F Personal Switches provide the switching speed and
the reliability to smoothly support multiple workgroups at 100Mbps or 10 Mbps speed. The
optional fiber port is normally configured and tested with the Magnum P80F unit in the factory,
and available in all popular fiber connectors.
Designed for use in departments with multiple workgroups, in remote offices, lab,
classroom and in network traffic centers, or multi-system power users, the Magnum P80 & P80F
Personal Switches are easy to install and use. Addresses of attached nodes are automatically
learned and maintained, adapting the switching services to network changes and expansions.
Top-mounted LEDs provide status information on each port. The Magnum P80 & P80F Personal
Switches provide high performance plug-and-play operation in compact packages.
The P80 & P80F Personal switches are non-blocking on all ports and include 512KB
packet buffers and 16K-node address table for advanced performance. The Magnum P80 &
P80F Personal Switches, with store-and-forward switching, filter all faulty packets to minimize
traffic congestion.
