Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the previous generation of
network bridges, which were characterized by higher latencies. Routers have also
been used to segment local area networks, but the cost of a router and the setup
and maintenance required make routers relatively impractical. Today's switches are
an ideal solution to most kinds of local area network congestion problems.

2. Features

The Switch were designed for easy installation and high performance in an
environment where traffic on the network and the number of user increase
continuously.
The Switch with its rack size is specifically designed for middle to large workgroups.
The Switch provides immediate access to a rapidly growing network through a wide
range of user-reliable functions.
The Switch is ideal for deployment with multiple high-speed servers for shared
bandwidth 10Mbps or 100Mbps workgroups. With the highest bandwidth 200Mbps
(100Mbps full-duplex mode), any port can provide workstations with a 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 site planning to upgrade to Fast Ethernet in the
future. Ethernet workgroups can connect to the Switch now, and change adapters
and hubs anytime later without needing to change the Switch or reconfigure the
network.
The Switch combine dynamic memory allocation with store-and-forward switching
to ensure that the buffer is effectively allocated for each port, while controlling the
data flow between the transmit and receive nodes to guarantee against all possible
packet loss.
The Switch is an unmanaged 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch that offers solutions in
accelerating small Ethernet workgroup bandwidth. Other key features are:
 16-port 10/100BASE Ethernet Switch with RJ-45 connectors
 Support Auto-negotiation for speed and duplex modes for each port
 Supports Auto-MDI/MDI-X for each port
 Wire speed reception and transmission
 Store-and-Forward switching method
 Integrated address Look-Up Engine, supports 8K absolute MAC addresses
 Supports 512KB (4Mbit) RAM for data buffering
 Front-panel diagnostic LEDs
 IEEE 802.3x flow control for full-duplex
