VERVIEW
EZ-LAN makes today’s complex show networking easier and accessible for everyone. These simple to
operate yet powerful Gigabit Ethernet switches distribute up to four discrete networks quickly, effortlessly,
and simultaneously. Users untrained in the complexities of managed networking can easily isolate networks
and access and change VLAN assignments with a single button press.
Save money by using two EZ-LAN switches to do the work of up to eight standard Gigabit switches! With
one quad fibre cable, or two copper Ethernet cables connecting two EZ-LANs, speed is doubled (through the
magic of “link aggregation”) and the security of full redundancy is provided.
With 16 ports, assignable in four groups of four ports, EZ-LAN is a revolutionary new addition to the ProPlex
Data Distribution range. This line of multiple format data management systems, are all designed and built to
withstand “Life on the Road.”
