1. Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of this Fast/Gigabit Ethernet
Management Switch. This high performance management
switch provides Ethernet ports to segment network traffics,
extend Ethernet connection distance, and convert data packets
between different transmission speeds.
This switch utilizes stored-and-forward switching architecture
that filters and forwards data after the complete data packet is
received and examined to be free of errors. With one set of
status LEDs for each individual port, the switch operation status
can be easily monitored.
All the Fast Ethernet ports support both Full and Half duplex
mode which are able to provide up to 200Mbps(2000Mbps for
Gigabit Ports) of bandwidth to the connected devices, with
auto-negotiation providing the capability to connect to
100/10Mbps(1000/100/10Mbps for Gigabit ports) network
devices. It also supports backpressure and IEEE 802.3x
advanced flow control capabilities that can reduce congestion
and prevent packet loss.
And it offers advance features:
SNMP/Web-based Management: Provides a web browser
to manage and monitor the switch.
Bandwidth Control: Input and output rate control.
VLAN: Port-based and Tag-based VLAN allow you to set
virtual LANs within your network
Trunking: Reduce the bottleneck between switches
QoS: Two priority queues per port allow you to define
which port has higher priority.
802.1X: This switch supports port-based authentication
protocol, IEEE 802.1X.
