SMC Networks GS1601 - FICHE TECHNIQUE Product Overview

SMCGS1601
EZ Switch 10/100/1000 Mbps
TM
16 Port Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switches
Product Overview
SMC introduces the latest Gigabit switch to the EZ Switch 10/100/1000 family –
the SMCGS1601. This switch provides Gigabit Ethernet connectivity from the network
backbone all the way to the edge and to individual desktops. With up to 10 times the
speed of 100 Mbps networks, this switch reduces transfer times of large data files and
boosts bandwidth-intensive applications, thereby significantly enhancing overall network
performance. Jumbo frame support enables more efficient data transfers with data
packets up to 9 KBytes in size. The SMC EZ Switch is easy to install and an ideal solution
for network migration, as it is equipped with 10/100/1000 Mbps Auto MDI/MDIX ports.
Not only is each port triple-speed, all ports can be either connected to a workstation or
another switch, without the need for cross-over cables. Providing non-blocking
wire-speed throughput, the switch can handle the growing performance needs of
emerging bandwidth-hungry applications.
Key Features and Benefits
IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet Support
When two 802.3az-compliant switches are connected, up to
49%* of power consumption can be saved.
Support IEEE 802.1p Quality of Service
When the switch receives a frame tagged with an 802.1p
priority tag, it is placed the appropriate priority queue. Priority
queuing is useful in environments where time-sensitive data,
such as voice and video, are streamed across the network.

Auto MDI/MDI-X on Each Port
Support for Auto MDI/MDIX means that no crossover
cables are required. Straight-through cables can be used
for all connections.
Metal Chassis Fan-less Design
The compact, rack mountable metal chassis is ideal for
desktop or rack mounting. In addition, the lack of fans
provides silent operation.
* According to an IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet
measurement test conducted by an independent testing
company, the SMCFS1601 and SMCFS2401 save up to
49% when each is compared to a non-Green Ethernet
switch.
