segments, it automatically forwards traffic that needs to go from
one segment to another.
capacity is multiplied, while still maintaining the same network
cabling and adapter cards.
For Fast Ethernet networks, a switch is an effective way of
eliminating problems of chaining hubs beyond the "two-repeater
limit." A switch can be used to split parts of the network into
different collision domains, making it possible to expand your
Fast Ethernet network beyond the 205-meter network diameter
limit for 100BASE-TX networks. Switches are also ideal for
bridging between the existing 10Mbps networks and the new
100Mbps networks.
Today switches are an ideal solution to most kinds of local area
network congestion problems.

Features

Designed for easy installation and high performance in an
environment where traffic on the network and the number of
user increase continuously.
With its rack size (19-inch), it is specifically designed for
middle to large workgroups.
Unlimited Expandability. As all ports support 200Mbps(Full
Duplex), the switch can be cascaded from any port and to
any number of switches.
Combines dynamic memory allocation with store-and-
forward switching to ensure that the buffer is effectively
allocated for each port, while controlling the data flow
