  • Page 17: Chapter 1: Introduction

    Chapter 1: Introduction Overview The ES4308-PoE is an intelligent Layer 2 switch with eight 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, one of which is a Gigabit combination port that is shared with an SFP transceiver slot. The switch’s eight 10/100/1000 Mbps ports support the IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) standard that enables DC power to be supplied to attached devices over the data wire pairs in the connecting Ethernet cable.

  • Page 18: Switch Architecture

    Introduction Switch Architecture The switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. The switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection. The switch uses store-and-forward switching to ensure maximum data integrity.

  • Page 19: Description Of Hardware

    Description of Hardware Description of Hardware 10/100/1000BASE-T Ports The switch contains eight RJ-45 ports that operate at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, half or full duplex, or at 1000 Mbps, full duplex. Because all ports on the switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs.

  • Page 26: Making Vlan Connections

    Network Planning Making VLAN Connections The switch supports VLANs that can be used to organize any group of network nodes into separate broadcast domains. VLANs confine broadcast traffic to the originating group, and can eliminate broadcast storms in large networks. This provides a more secure and cleaner network environment.

  • Page 27: Application Notes

    Application Notes Application Notes Full-duplex operation only applies to point-to-point access (such as when a switch is attached to a workstation, server or another switch). When the switch is connected to a hub, both devices must operate in half-duplex mode. For network applications that require routing between dissimilar network types, you can attach the switch directly to a multi-protocol router.
