The RFS-105 / RFS-108 is a high-performance Fast Ethernet switch, with all ports capable of 10 or 100Mbps auto-negotiation operation. Store-and-forward switching mode promises the low latency plus eliminates all the network errors, including runt and CRC error packets. To work under full-duplex mode, transmission and reception of the frames can occur simultaneously without causing collisions as well as double the network bandwidth.
