Features
The DES-1008D was designed for easy installation and high performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the number of users increase continuously.
The DES-1008D with its small, compact size was specifically designed for small to middle workgroups. The DES-1008D can be installed where space is limited; moreover, the DES-1008D provides immediate access to a rapidly growing network through a wide range of functions.
The DES-1008D is ideal for deployment with multiple high-speed servers for shared bandwidth 10Mbps or 100Mbps workgroups. With the highest bandwidth 200Mbps (100Mbps full-duplex mode), any port can provide workstations with a congestion-free data pipe for simultaneous access to the server.
The DES-1008D is expandable by cascading two or more DES- 1008Ds together. As all ports support 200Mbps, the DES-1008D can be cascaded from any port and to any number of DES-1008Ds.
The DES-1008D is a perfect choice for sites planning to upgrade to Fast Ethernet in the future. Ethernet workgroups can connect to the DES-1008D now, and you can change adapters and hubs anytime later without needing to change the DES-1008Ds or reconfigure the network.
The DES-1008D combines dynamic memory allocation with store- and-forward switching to ensure that the buffer is effectively allocated for each port, while controlling the data flow between the transmit and receive nodes to guarantee against all possible packet loss.
The DES-1008D is a managed 10/100 Fast Ethernet switch that offers solutions in accelerating small Ethernet workgroup bandwidth. Other key features are:
