GSW-1657/2457
Gigabit Ehternet Switch
full-duplex mode and backpressure for half-duplex mode. It is compatible
with all 10,100, and 1000Mbps Ethernet devices because it is standard-
based, it protects your existing network investments while providing you
with a straightforward migration path to faster Gigabit speeds.
The GSW-1657/GSW-2457 is plug-and-play and no configuration is required.
Auto MDI/MDI-X cable detection on all ports eliminate the need for crossover
cable or Uplink port. Each port can be used as general ports or Uplink
ports, and any port can be simply plugged into a server, a hub, a router or
a switch, using the straight cable or crossover cable. Diagnostic LEDs which
display link status and activity, allowing you to quickly detect and correct
problems on the network.
