5/8-port 10/100Mbps Ethernet SWITCH
Product Overview
Product Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the 10/100Mbps Ethernet Ethernet
Switch! The hub was designed to give you the ultimate in performance,
flexibility, ease-of-use, and reliability.
Your 10/100Mbps Ethernet Switch can increase performance on your network
by bringing full Ethernet bandwidth to individual workgroups, or straight to
the desktop, instead of requiring all stations to share the bandwidth of a single
network. The hub's 100Mbps Fast Ethernet capability can eliminate
bottlenecks in connection to servers, or can link 10Mbps workgroups to a
100Mbps Fast Ethernet network backbone.
For straight-through 10Base-TX or 100Base-TX connection to servers and
workstations, the Ethernet Switch supports full-duplex connection, effectively
doubling the total throughput on individual links.
The hubs can be placed on a tabletop or rack-mounted, and provide the ideal
solution for your small, medium, or large Ethernet/Fast Ethernet network. It is
designed to comply fully with the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet and 802.3u Fast
Ethernet standards.
