Glossary

10BASE-T

IEEE’s specifications for 10 Mbps Ethernet using twisted-pair cable (100 WSTP or UTP). The maximum length of cable for a point-to-point connection is 100 meters.

1Step

Specialized program used with Accton's Ethernet Adapters for quick adapter software installation and diagnostics.

Driver

Program that enables the network operating system to communicate with LAN cards.

Ethernet

A network communication system developed and standardized by DEC, Intel and Xerox, using baseband transmission, CSMA/CD access, logical bus topology, and coaxial cable. The successor IEEE 802.3 standard provides for integration into the OSI model and extends the physical layer and media with repeaters and implementations that operate on fiber optics, broadband, and twisted-pair.

Frame

A group of bits that include data plus control information. Generally refers to a link layer (layer 2) protocol.

IEEE 802.3 standard

Standard for the physical and electrical connections in local area networks developed by the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers).

Interrupt

Signal that causes a momentary switch of control from program to Operating System when input or output is required.

I/O Address

Input/output address; starting address for data input and output.

EN2218 specifications

Accton Technology EN2218 is a versatile and robust networking device designed primarily for enterprise and service provider applications. Known for its compact design and high efficiency, the EN2218 is particularly well-suited for environments where space and power consumption are critical factors. This device integrates advanced networking technologies and features that ensure it can handle a variety of tasks with ease.

One of the standout characteristics of the EN2218 is its scalability. It supports multiple configurations, allowing enterprises to adapt the device to their specific networking needs. This flexibility makes it ideal for a range of applications, from small offices to large data centers, where the demand for high-capacity network switching is ever-increasing.

The EN2218 boasts impressive throughput capabilities. Equipped with multiple Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet ports, it provides ample bandwidth for simultaneous data transfers. This ensures smooth operation for data-intensive applications such as video conferencing, large file transfers, and cloud computing, fostering an improved user experience without bottlenecks.

Security is a significant focus for networking equipment, and the EN2218 does not disappoint. It features advanced security protocols that protect data integrity and prevent unauthorized access. With support for Virtual Private Network (VPN) configurations, users can ensure secure connections over public networks, making the device ideal for remote work setups.

Additionally, the EN2218 supports advanced Quality of Service (QoS) features, allowing for prioritization of critical data streams. This is essential for businesses requiring real-time data processing, such as VoIP or video streaming services. With QoS, users can manage bandwidth effectively, ensuring that priority applications receive the resources they need for optimal performance.

Another key technology integrated into the EN2218 is its support for PoE (Power over Ethernet). This allows network cables to transfer power alongside data, reducing the need for separate power supplies and enhancing installation flexibility. This is particularly beneficial for powering devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones.

The EN2218 also includes an intuitive web-based interface for easy management and configuration. Network administrators can quickly set up the device, monitor performance, and troubleshoot issues without requiring extensive technical expertise. This usability factor is critical in reducing the total cost of ownership and streamlining network operations.

In summary, Accton Technology EN2218 is a feature-rich networking solution that combines scalability, security, throughput, and ease of use, making it an excellent choice for diverse networking environments. Its emphasis on advanced technologies ensures that it meets the evolving demands of modern enterprises.
