1. Introduction to 24+2G Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart Switch
1.1 General Description
The device is a 24+2G 10/100Mbps Ethernet Web Smart Switch.
The device is a powerful, high-performance Gigabit Ethernet switch, which
provides smart and efficient management functions and support 26 ports
connection with 24 ports of 10/100Mbps and 2 ports 10/100/1000Mbps with
Full/Half duplex capability. The NWay auto-negotiation operation automatically
negotiates with the connected partners on the network speed and duplex mode;
that provides an easy way to integrate 10/100Mbps networks with no pain. It is
ideal for micro-segmenting large networks into smaller, connected subnets for
improved performance, enabling the bandwidth demanding multimedia and
imaging applications.
Out of the ordinary dumb switches, the 24+2G Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart
Switch embedded advanced management capability; that the device can be
managed through console port or web-based UI. This is much useful for system
manager to monitor and control the system efficiently.
Store-and-forward switching mode promises the low latency plus eliminates all
the network errors, including runt and CRC error packets. To work under
full-duplex mode, transmission and reception of the frames can occur
simultaneously without causing collisions as well as double the network
bandwidth.

The switch is plug-n-play without any software to configure and also fully
compliant with all kinds of network protocols. Moreover, the rich diagnostic LEDs
on the front-panel provide the operating status of individual port and whole
system.
