maintenance intensive, these make it relatively impractical for the
network. Switch, on the other hand, is less expensive, easier to setup,
and practically maintenance free, which make it an ideal solution to
today’s local area network congestion problems.
Features
This high performance Switch was designed for a network
environment where traffic and the number of users increase
continuously.
The Switch, with its standard rack-mount size, is perfect for middle to
large workgroups. It provides immediate access to a rapidly growing
network through a wide range of user-reliable functions.
The Switch is ideal for shared bandwidth 10Mbps or 100Mbps
workgroups with multiple high-speed servers . With the highest
bandwidth at 200Mbps (100Mbps full-duplex mode), each port can
provide workstation with congestion-free data-pipe for simultaneous
access to the server.
The Switch is expandable by cascading two or more switches
together. As all ports support 200Mbps, the Switch can be cascaded
from any port and to any number of switches.
The Switch is a perfect choice for 10Mbps network site that could be
upgraded to Fast Ethernet in the future. Ethernet workgroups can
connect to the Switch now, and change adapters and hubs anytime
later without changing the Switch or reconfiguring the network.
The Switch combines dynamic memory allocation with store-and-
forward switching method to ensure that the buffer is effectively
allocated for each port. It also controls the data flow between transmit
and receive nodes to guarantee against all possible packet loss.
