  • Page 21: Frame Buffering And Latency

    Installation and User Guide (10/06) 2.4 Frame Buffering and Latency The PXES4P Series Switches are store-and-forward switches. Each frame (or packet) is loaded into the Switch’s memory and inspected before forwarding can occur. This technique ensures that all forwarded frames are of a valid length and have the correct CRC, i.e., are good packets.
  • Page 22 This flow-control sequence occurs in a small fraction of a second and is transparent to an observer. See Section 4.6 for additional details. Another feature implemented in PXES4P Series Switches is a collision-based flow-control mechanism (when operating at half-duplex only). When the Switch detects that its free buffer queue space is low, the Switch prevents more frames from entering by forcing a collision signal on all receiving half-duplex ports in order to stop incoming traffic.
  • Page 23: Features And Benefits

    The latency (the time the frame spends in the Switch before it is sent along or forwarded to its destination) of the PXES4P Series Switches varies with the port-speed types. The length of the frame is a variable here as it is with all store-and-forward switches.
