Asante FriendlyNET GX5-2400W Specifications

Gigabit is easy with the powerful FriendlyNET GX5-
2400W. Just plug in the network connections (10, 100
or 1000 Mbps) and you'll be up and running within
minutes. The GX5-2400W switch automatically
negotiates the best speed, duplex (full or half) and wiring (Auto-
Uplink™) for optimal performance.
48 Gbps Non-Blocking Gigabit Backbone
Built around a very sophisticated single-chip architecture, the GX5-
2400W delivers non-blocking, wire-speed Gigabit performance on
all ports.
As your network's average file sizes increase to hundreds of
megabytes (MB), you'll appreciate how easily you can add newer
Gigabit-equipped workstations, servers and backbone uplinks. Use
the GX5-2400W switch on the edge of your network or to cluster
small workgroups at Gigabit speeds. By investing in Gigabit today,
you'll gain greater throughput and minimize network latency—over
your existing Category 5 UTP cables.
4 SFP Slots for Optical Fiber Connectivity
The GX5-2400W gives you flexible choices of either copper cable or
fiber optical cable on ports 21 to 24. Using SFP MiniGBIC modules
you can connect the network to a fiber optical network backbone,
or extend the transmission distance with the use of single-mode or
multi-mode Gigabit fiber cables.
