1.1 Features
Designed for resolving congestion problems caused by bandwidth-hun- gry devices and bandwidth-intensive applications as well as a high num- ber of users, the switches not only adhere to the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T,
802.3u 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX standards, but also feature:
•Seven 10/100BASE-TX auto-negotiation switched ports and one 100BASE-FX port for flexible connections to desktop PCs, servers and Fast Ethernet devices.
•The 10/100BASE-TX switched ports support:
-auto-negotiation with auto-negotiation devices
-full-duplex or half-duplex operation
-automatic MDI/MDI-X configuration
•For the 100BASE-FX fiber port, the switch series support variety of fiber connectors for different application needs. The fiber connec- tors include ST, SC, MT-RJ, and VF-45 types for multimode and single mode fiber cables.
•Supports duplex mode selector for the 100BASE-FX fiber port.
•Self learning for active MAC addresses and address aging
•Store and forward switching to ensure only good packets are forwarded
•Forwarding and filtering at full wire speed
•Supports IEEE 802.3x flow control for full-duplex operation
•Supports back-pressure flow control for half-duplex operation
•Comprehensive LED indicators provide quick, easy to read port and switch information
