1.1 Features
Designed for resolving congestion problems caused by bandwidth-hun-
gry devices and bandwidth-intensive applications as well as a high num-
ber of users, the switches not only adhere to the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T
and IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX 100BASE-FX standards, but also feature:
High port-count of 10/100BASE-TX auto-negotiation switched
ports for flexible connections to desktop PCs, servers and hubs.
The 10/100BASE-TX switched ports support:
- auto speed sensing for 100Mbps or 10Mbps connection
- auto configuration with auto-negotiation devices
The optional 100BASE-FX switched ports support:
- full duplex or half duplex for 100Mbps connection
- a variety of fiber modules for diversified fiber needs
Self learning for network configuration
Store and forward switching to ensure only good packets are forwarded
Full-duplex or half-duplex operation support for all switched ports
Forwarding and filtering at full wire speed
Support IEEE 802.3x flow control for full-duplex operation
Support back-pressure flow control for half-duplex operation
Comprehensive LED indicators provide quick, easy to read port
and switch information
Additional uplink jack allows easy connection to different types of
devices with a straight-through cable instead of a modified
crossover cable
Trunking support to increase the connection bandwidth up to
800Mbps between two switches
