Section 1 - Product Overview
Other key features include:
• Store-and-forward switching scheme capability. As the result of complete frame checking and error frame
filtering, this scheme prevents error packages from transmitting among segments.
• Auto-MDI/MDI-X function supports automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection, giving true 'plug and play'
capability—Crossover or Straight-Through CAT5 cables can be plugged into any port.
• Nway Auto-negotiation for any port. This allows for auto-sensing of speed (10/100Mbps), providing an
automatic and flexible solution for the network.
• Flow control for any port. This minimizes dropped packets by sending out collision signals when the port's
receiving buffer is full.
• Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc., per port at wire-speed for 100Mbps operation
and 10Mbps operation.
