This prevents a device from blocking the network by transmitting continuous data streams or extra-long packets. The FriendlyNET 7000 Series Switch supports store-and-forward switching. If the speeds are different, such as for a 10Mbps workstation connected to a 100Mbps server, the switch will buffer and read the entire packet, perform a data validity check, then forward the packet at the new speed. - Page 12 Introduction Page 1-6...
