32-Port 10/100Mbps Ethernet Switch User Guide
10 AirLink+
Features
The Switch was 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-sized 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. Since 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 systems that will be
upgraded 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.
