Introduction
General Description
This Switch will instantly boost your networking throughput because it provides
you with 24 Gigabit ports that enable true Gigabit connectivity. Users are now
able to transfer large and bandwidth-hungry files faster and hence get a real
efficiency improvement. This efficiency is further enhanced by the user-friendly
Web-based management interface. In addition to the 24 copper ports, the
Switch offers
4 fiber ports (slots) that can be used in the place of the last 4
copper ports (these are interchangeable or ‘combo’ ports)
. These
mini-GBIC slots offer the option of a long-distance, fiber-based connection. Use
of a mini-GBIC port automatically disables its corresponding copper port.
The management functions enable efficient network usage. VLAN reduces the
collisions caused by broadcasting. Port Aggregation enlarges the bandwidth of
the backbone connection. QoS secures the bandwidth for some
bandwidth-hungry applications like VoIP and video conferencing. The Switch
also supports 802.3x and backpressure flow control mechanisms to ensure the
correctness of data transmission.
